I think this is what I want the finished boat to look like, just don’t know about the gull.

No I agree the gull doesn’t look right, it hasn’t got someone’s half a battered fish in its beak.😂

I say that roof is too nice and clean, you have faded walls , doors, deck, but that roof needs it also.
Another thing, the life raft container needs weathering, they come with labels on them, instructions and what notifications.

Hi Lew, yes. Here is the Model Boats Cover, It was published in December 1985.
Just realised that’s 40 years ago🤣

Is that the "tug" that was in Model Boats magazine several years back?

All the hull parts cut out and a dry run to see if they fit, can't always trust a drawing.

While doing research for my Springer/Pusher tug I discovered these drawings David Metcalf’s Motorflot Pusher Tug and I had all the materials to build it so I put the other pusher I am building aside and started on this one. I am easily distracted 😆
All the hull parts have been cut out one after yesterdays power outage, I will stat the assembly today.
Pictures to follow.

Ed, how did you know I had plenty of leftover plasticard and ply lying around? You’re about to make me break my promise to myself of “no more building till I get the shop rearranged “🤣
Seriously, keeping an eye on this. Looks like fun!! Cash ▲

Very neat and totally cool drawings Ed.
In the same vein, here is one of "let- the-buyer-beware" pushers from China. Heavily over priced and you never quite know what the kit comes with. Not to mention those annoying interlocking tabs that are everywhere! I learned that the hard way with my Naxos Kit. ▲

You're as bad as me Ed! Hence my determination to finish my Faun build before I do anything else! 😁
