The last 200 bits to do as always but here's how she is today. Never going to be 100% due to the lack of info but I hope she's a fair representative.

Just a few fwd deck planks? ......she looks superb Tony  ..................

Spectacular Tony, she looks every part of a Victorian era vessel. Stunning.

Very nice Tony. An unusual subject, great colour scheme.

Many thanks, I am quite pleased with the overall look and hopefully she'll look the part on the water. Definitely some odd bits of course, especially the placing of the "heads" as far as poss from the superstructure. Not a temporary arrangement since they appear on the drawings and any photos

Deeeeelicious Tony! She looks amazing. I bet you  are pleased with how she came out?


The Insect Class gunboats also put the heads as far away as possible from everything else but they were quite cramped.

Thanks Ian but have you noticed the deliberate error with the comfort stations? The Insects, logically, had them at the back end so all was left behind them whereas Willie...........?

Very nice indeed and well done for such an unusual model. If you need to make oars for the boats, use thin plastic rod and flatten the end 1/3rd in a smooth jaw vice. It make an oar in about 3 seconds! Squash it too much and you end up with a paddle!


Cheers
