    Hi Rogal
    I have used silk or cloth like the real ones so the print shows through. As Colin says you can also buy on-line.

    Cannot recall where I found the detail. Think it was from amalgamating the various plans and photos from the Internet.
    Attached is my interpretation.
    I also deduced the wheel was downstairs and instructions were passed to the helmsman.
    Just had inspiration. 2757 is/was in the RAF Museum in London. Am sure a request to the curator might get you a picture. Wish I had tried just so would know am right!

    Very nice craft Rowen.it always amazes me when I see other guys models and how they have interpreted the plans and photos. I say to myself many a time. What an idiot I was to have missed that detail, itโ€™s obvious when I see how another guy has modelled a feature. Mind you it works the other way as well. But each to our own, thatโ€™s what model boating is all about. Thanks for your kind interest, and as always value your opinions.
    As you can see I have gone for the far/near east version in white and intend to fit the sun shades soon as seen in the photos behind my boat. A lot of fine detail still to fit, but this is the part I like constructing the most.Im stuck for detail for the flying bridge dash board. Am I right in thinking that the craft is not steered from here, just directed by the captain. Unlike the Brave that has a wheel in the flying bridge. Any thoughts ,comments?

    Hi Roger,
    Followed your Brave and Orca projects with interest.
    Build my RTTL based on a MTBHulls hull.
    As you can see turned out well and sails just as nicely.
    Some what easier than the Brave because only twin motors.
    Based mine on E2754 so the mahogany plank lines in the hull are omitted.
    Best Rowen.

    They do a great range of flags, penants on cloth which look very realistic on models.
    Cheers Colin.
