So, let's continue this little one. With the cockpit finished, was time to get the fuselage together.

After that, shortly followed the wings, so far so good, perfect fitting.

And to end the day, time for one shot primer from Ammo Mig.

Hi guys, with the hot weather coming quickly, the time on the bench becomes hard to achieve. So what better than a quick @airfix spitfire to recover the mojo. So here we go.

Have detached the main parts of the fuselage and gave them a thorough clean, as there will not be any masking tape, I have skipped the primer process. So interior cockpit from Tamyia was applied.

Little details have been painted in black, not that makes much difference at this scale as when the fuselage closed, they will not be see. I have painted them, using the 5x0 brush from a company called ABCBrushes, they are excellent for this type of details and with a very good relation quality/price.

A quick dab of brown paint in the chair.

And a quick dry fit. Some adjustments are in order to achieve a good junction.

Another one for sale, please do share this.

Hi, this is my build for the Rabelo Boat @1:75 scale this is a traditional boat from my home  town that used to bring the oporto wine from the hills to the cellars in Vila Nova de Gaia,now a days they aren’t used as the travel was very dangerous, but if you visit Gaia or Porto o can still see them on the Margins of Rio Douro. But let’s go to the build. This model belongs to a Portuguese company that went broke unfortunately so is very rare to find this models.

   This is presented in 3 plastic sprues composed by Hull, barrels and all the other bits needed for the build. The only downside that I can find with this model is the sail, it comes formed in plastic in vacform.

And managed to obtain this effect

To do the Barrels have used strips of 1mm paper painted in grey and glued 6 on each barrel on a total of 32. The plastic bucket that came with the model didn’t pleased me so decided to make one from scratch.

Barrel and bucket in detail.

Decided to do a cloth sail, used whit cloth and dipped in black tea, yo do the image used the t-shirt transfer paper

The tools and the food. Salted codfish and smoked pork leg,that goes by the name of Presunto,

And the final result, you can see the ladder and the row paddles tied to the barrels.

All the cables
