Captain Jack's Boat & Bait House.

I've just read this build from the start. Great work Polux.


That's the beautiful thing about this sort of build. You can add or remove as you please to make the structure unique to yourself.


I agree with you about the stonework. It does need replacing with something more in keeping with the rest of the excellent building. It does let the rest down.


Rather than real stones, how about scribing the stonework onto some thin polystyrene, or similar? Rather like I did on my Rorke's Drift Store house - only better!! Then sticking it to the card ones on your building.....

Polux are you going to do a little fishing port or not to go with?

Yep!!


The idea is, that model, be part of a train layout.


I will add some part of sea or a lake....with a lovely dock house


Thanks for your comments

Very nice work Polux

[Guest]

this is really awesome looking mate, great work

[Guest]

Yep!


The main roof is painted












PS: now I'm not sure how to paint the the letters on the roof.....


I will miss all the effect, and if I apply a wash, it will look different....

[Guest]

Nice roof.

[Guest]

The security is very important.....






PS: I don't know if it is visible.....is so small!

[Guest]

Hi all!


Well...the main roof is painted and finished with the Captain Jack’s letters.








Thanks

That's very nice Polux, the lettering has come out really well and nicely weathered. I had visions of it being a big bold 'Captain Jack's - but no, it looks dead right.


Nice one....

this is coming along a real treat Polux,do real like how your doing it,


even down to the fine detail,of locks and handles,


the roof looks great and nicely blended with the sign,as Ron said,was thinking


the same very well done so far,

[Guest]

Thank you very much Ron & Moni for your excellent comments!


But I done a mistake.... I added a matt varnish coat to preserve the letter's work, and it looks different now


The roof was painted with pigments...I'm thinking, now, if add some more to recuperate the past texture and colour.


But I have the letters now!! A real problem!!

[Guest]

The Captain Jack’s is nearly finished....so I decided to start the to work on the stuff.






I found the perfect complement!!!


A Ford Courier 53”


It looks so new, not? So I will repaint it again..... :P
