SD14 Cargo ship 1:70 - Marcle Models

[K193 buttercup]

Hi Marco.
A really impressive build!
I'm new to the forum and joined primarily to access you and Romanmodel's build threads of this kit. Inspiring! So much so I've managed to get my hands on a kit and I'm going to give it a go. Hopefully I'll be able to get close to the standard you have set.

my private messaging is not working
can i please ask, what is the paper tape you use on the butt joints of the hull plates

[Tapcho]

About the tape: paper tape with dry glue on it (to be moistened when attaached). Acid free archival quality. That's what I've used. Take a look at this selection.

PS The build is profressing fine. Very enjoyable to follow.

By lack of any sophisticated materials when building in Nigeria, I used standard 80 grams office, cut in strips, and thinly applied transparant glue.

Excellent build. I like the crate. I moved 750 miles 11 yes ago. Made coffins for each model, about 20 back then. I didn't trust movers though rented a covered trailer and hauled the load myself. Good luck.
