I'm with you George,👍
Just wouldn't look right without all the plates and rivets would it!
Plenty of other prototypes about with planked wooden hulls.
HMS Victory for instance😁
Cheers, Doug 😎

I love to take on a planked job after looking a some of my father lovely work from years ago. Time is a bit short!

Weathering was done with Matt Varnish (Alclad II) mixed with Various shades of pastels and brushed in. Panels were slightly altered colourwise and some weathering also Airbrushed. I did not want to go over the top on it.
Many thanks for the comments!👍

Great weathering, she really looks like she works for a living.
I must learn how to do that.
All my ships are 'as built', all spit and polish🤔
Cheers, Doug 😎
