Really excellent weathering Karel, one of the finest jobs I have seen yet.

Beautiful work Karel.

I especially like the closeup shot taken from just in front of the CT.  It almost looks like you're standing there on the real one.

How did you do the bottom edge of the mesh on the lower part of the railings?

The bottom part is`nt glued on the railings, only the upper corners of the mesh are glued, the less glue the better... :)

Karel, I know the bottom part of the mesh isn't glued to the railings.  On the real boats, I think it had a strand of wire woven through the bottom links to hold it down.  It's what you did to represent that wire (or whatever it was) that I'm asking about.

Ok, now i understand  ;) That part is one piece with the rest of the mesh as it comes in the Eduard PE kit.
