    Lightship Ambrose - Free Model Competition

    It was busy night for me. During last few minutes I almost ruined everything because the mast after all processing was not fitting in the hole in front superstructure. But finally I made it. Later during the day I will make more pictures of it.

    Hello again. There is a thing on a back superstructure (I have no idea what it is). I was unable to make it from wires so I decided to make it from paper. Here you can see as it looks glued to the right place. And here more of the ship.

    The parts are not so small. They look very small on picture especially with the match but when you work with them there is no problem with the size. It could be a problem with even smaller parts, 2 times etc. I like work with small parts because it's less to cut, glue and paint.
