So in part 3, I'm building, painting and adding lot's of bits!
Lot's of sanding was involved too lol
First up was adding the boiler room structure. I opted to build this up on the ship, rather than a separate structure to ensure a better fit.
Once I got it to fit right, it was painted and then glued in place.
With this allowed to dry for a bit, I busied myself making up the various parts that go on to these bits of structure. These were painted and then glued in place and then the aftermarket handrail posts were fitted and rigged up with EZ-Line.
The boiler room vents were then added and allowed to dry while I started work on the funnel.
After painting the funnel and adding the detail parts (and rigging lines), the funnel was glued into place. Once dry the rigging lines were also glued into place. I also started adding bits to the engine room roof..
With this done, I got on with assembling painting and fitting the mast and the ladders.
While painting various bits for the engine room roof, I painted the skylights for the engine room.
And finally I glued all the remaining parts I'd made on to the engine room roof.
That's all for now
