Hi figtree 7nts
Thanks for the advice I fixed myself up with Humbrol matt French Blue. The boat I am building the model of had blue antifoul so it was important to replicate that. Thanks anyway ๐ ▲

Hope this doesn't come to late Krylon (PRIMER) ruby brown is what I would suggest. for me it gives a scaled antifoul appearance!

Hi figtree7nts !!! Yes that was a special occasion ! it was Plymouth (UK) Trawler Race Day and the boat was in the crabber section. I was on the wheel when this photo was taken. We came second in our class and 14th overall !!! That was in July 1982 !!! I intend to "Dress Ship" when I finally launch her next Spring 2017 ! ๐

Hi Ballast
Are you going to be getting ships flag for the EXUBERENT as well? I think that would be a great detail to add since the original is all flagged out. it must have been a special occasion for her to be flying so many flags! ▲

Hi Wayne
Just seen your post. The clear resin is casting resin and it is used for encapsulating ornamental and wildlife specimens.

My local supplier is ▲

Hi Mate, in small spaces, i have used gel type cyno, a small blob to secure the LED and using the LED lens/body as the "glass" works well, you have to look close to see the difference. Using a varnish is ok but it does tend to go yellowish over time
