Battery was placed in the hull. Mounted the throttle switch forward of the battery. All connections hooked up. Everything ran well except one shaft. Removed shafts and regreased. No more binding. So next is paint. I put some bondo on some gaps. Tommorow is sand and paint the hull and super structure. Also to create a back hatch over the rudder area.
One half of the ship has been painted. When dry I will paint the other half. Super Structure will be painted this evening. I will probably hand paint the decks the same as the PE but leave the superstructure and sides the same dark grey. Cage masts will be hand painted black.
Here is the Southy. I still have to put on the water line tape. And maybe some touch up on the supers truccture. But the southy is ready to go to sea trials. >
The waterline tape was added today. Three of the turrets have been gooped down. One turret has the power switch for the pump. As this will be a runner only I will install a two channel radio at some point.
I think it 's time to add some color to the fat lady in the swing bb26.Ship looks great! Great job Admiral.
If I could find a small spiderman I would mount him to the cage mast. So that would give me a horse, sheep, laundry lady and lady on a swing.
Paul, the thing to get is a figure from the game Heroclix. If you can find a comic or game store in town, they might sell singles. If not, contact Craig. He can get them in Fred. J
