Very impressive Joerg, I'm looking forward to seeing the model on the water.... Where did you get the figures from, and what scale are they?

Regards
Eddy

Hi Eddy

The Figures came from a german Manufacture the name is Preiser,the Scale is 1:25 but realy Expensive.I start to Weather the model today.I hope its ready next week (work on details).Wat does your Ferrie?

Looking good, not to be critical at all but I think the paddlewheels are on backwards, they're usually set up so the spokes of the wheel push the floats through the water (when going forward) then the stress is not on the fixing bolts...if that makes any sense...
easily changed though... and at least it's on the water - unlike my own effort which is still on the bench!
