Hi Dan,
I have the Papegojan of Shipyard 1/72 selected. This evening I glued the first frames in. As I have the framework finished, I will show some pictures. |

Thanks Mike .
The first section of the Superstructure for the #2 Turret. Some tricky bending/rolling was required around some of it. I've added extra bracing on the framework in important areas. Cheers, Danny |

I've finished adding all the small structures and railings to the #2 turret base. The Mast is held together with CA glue. I would have silver soldered it, but I've run out of gas and can't get a refill for a few weeks.
Cheers, Danny |

You sure this is only your second card model Danny, 'cause you sure do good work. Looking forward to your next post.

Thanks Elliott. I assure you it is .
The three Turrets are identical, so it was a "no-brainer" to make them together. The kit gives you the option to make the guns elevate, so I took that option and I'm glad I did as they would have been a real pain to work around if they had been in a fixed position. The last three pics are of a completed turret which still needs the railings painted and the 1mm brass tube barrels glued in. Cheers, Danny |

The Gun Turrets are completed and ready to fit (later). I've also done most of the work on the two Torpedo Tube Turrets.
Cheers, Danny |

Dan, your model looks really stunning. I have one question though. I always use copper wire instead of your brass wire. Is brass wire also available in various thicknesses and where ??
