Airfix Royal Sovriegn

The opened gunports & cannons are well worth it ( says the bloke who didn't have to do it!) Black paint can only do so much, and
the look of the opened gunports is vastly better.

What scale is she? And overall dimensions?

Hi all did a bit on the gold on this side

Outstanding work.

Hi all here is an update on this one (sorry webby for not answering your question she is 1/168 and is 16 inches X 5 1/4 at the moment with no bowsprit or masts on)

Imagine seeing the real thing "back in the day" as the saying goes.  Impressive and powerful, probably the equivalent of seeing a battleship or carrier today.

It's looking good! The gold makes the difference.

Hi all here is a very small update on this kit.

Hi all here is another update.

That is some amazing work. I wouldn't have the patience to do something that intricate. Keep it up! I like it.

Inspiring, Nice work.

Hi all I've decided to do something different with this and it involves this

It flickers just like a real candle and the other one is kaput so I developed a cunning plan so, off with the transom

can you guess where this is going
drilled out the windows

then removed the rest of the window
yes thats right I'm going to RC it, only joking, lighting up the state cabins.

Oh wow! Can't wait to see this.

Hi all a small update on this, The transom sticks out past the gallaries on the sides and I didnt like the way Airfix just moulded them flat so I've rounded the edges and reguilded them






also the grills on the prow are not moulded all the way through so I drilled all the holes out.






and I've hacked the candle apart and reconfigured it

Hi all here is another update on her

Each update on this build is better than the last. Good one.

COOL !

Hi all here is another update on this lovely little kit, it really is a joy to build.

Looking super KP The detail and the lighting really set it off

What did you use for the Gold ??

Gold, yep real gold leaf, hey if it's good enough for Charles the first, it's good enough for me.

Most beautiful and detailed.  Will enjoy seeing sails and rigging on.  Thanx for continuing the voyage with us.

Hi all here is tonights update
