I just got caught up on this. Way to go Robbo! I'm so glad to see you building again. I have this same kit somewhere so I'm gonna follow closely. I love what you've done so far! Keep it coming man!

Thank you kindly chaps.
It's pretty grim on the sprues to be honest, very hard to see the part numbers doing a lot of it by just identifying the parts
The one my dad bought me as a nipper had a green deck, I remember it well so it was not this kit, wonder which kit it was, be interested to hear if you lot have any ideas, it was a 1/72

Righto it might no look like much has happened but there are loads of little bits added you can't really see More work on the rear end and we can start painting  To make sure I haven't missed anything I've had to highlight what I've done My camera card has broke so until I can get a new one I'm having to use my phone |

I like the highlighting, must admit I do that too. Nothing worse than finding that last piece attached to sprue, and not knowing where it was supposed to be 🙄.
Boat looks good 👍

Looking good Ian, nice to see that gap has filled in well  . I also do something similar, I put red circles around the parts that haven't been added, specially those knocky off bits that I try to leave till last  |

What I noticed last night was there is no diagram as to the rigging. I’ll have to just look at other builds to get an idea

Righto just the mast thing to do and it's all done   Found out what the missing part is it's the stick thing at the very front end, easy to make from a bit of brass rod Sorry about the photo still using my phone |
