Nick,
Your work is amazing! The water and waves looks just like the real thing. And I love the treatment you did to show the hull framing. Is it possible to do this kind of treatment with an RC-hull? One that gets wet for real?

Hi Nick,
Very realistic hull : I appreciate your step-by-step pictures but could you explain what kind of materials did you use (step by step) ?
Thanks

The hand rails look like they're plastic. If so, are the commercially available or did you make them? If so, how?

Hi everybody :wave_1: Thanks for a good words my friends JIM BAUMANN,noplate,NorthSea. For the lights i am using house current 1,5-12 volt. The led lamps is high lighting 3,2 volt.

Hi Nick, I like the lighting especially the way you have placed a blue-white LED on the mast and yellow-white for the general lighting. It looks remarkably like different types of light.  What type of LEDs did you use for this?

I just stumbled on your thread. Wow, great work! Your dolphins at the front are a nice touch. I do electronic engineering as well - it never occurred to me to use a "dead bug" approach to component layout in a model. I'm just too used to traditional circuit boards. You're giving me ideas!  Are you using house current or battery for your lighting?
