I use essentialy 3mm plywood.
This thickness is "confortable " to work on the stem & stern.

They look incredible - might they need some shade on the fundamental edge as they sit on the barbettes? I don't have the foggiest thought regarding that they do, yet somehow that seems like it'd work! |

Decent begin. Anticipating more advancement. The illustrations you use appears from distributed books, not intentionally layouted for displaying. Be that as it may, 1/700 would not tell a lot of contrast in that. |
