" It had had at least 4 coats of paint the latest being done by what looked like a plasterer."
Funny that Rogal! I had exactly the same situation with the restoration / conversion of an ancient Billing Boats fish cutter, the Gina 2. Dave-M actually said he thought it looked like it had been plastered! ๐ฎ Pics show the wreck I started with and where I'm at. Paint finish in last pic is actually Arctic White, lighting and camera makes it look very off white!๐ฎ Oh well! She'd been at sea for a while ๐ You can follow my 'trail' in my Build Blog at ▲

Good luck Rogal, that is just the sort of project I like doing myself.
There is something really rewarding bringing a model back to it's former glory.โต ▲

Hi there, I had not thought that far ahead.i am a railway modeller to and a lot of the chaps weather their locos and do an excellent job, but I've never been that brave. Although it would help hiding a multitude of sins. I'll see how good things turn out and decide then

Hi,
I have never done a boat refurbishment before. It looks very interesting and you never know what you will find. It must be more difficult than you make it look. Keep up the good work. Martin. ▲

Wow twin Decaperms!
You should be able to swing a pair of 50mil screws with those. She won't win any races but should have a good 'pull'! How big is the beast? Love the w/t doors๐ Used a similar method to make some for my 1/72 destroyer HMS Hotspur. KUTGW! Cheers, Doug ๐ ▲
