I dont understand. I dont understand how you manage to fit the railings so damn well. How.

Hi,
It's actually an easy work. Firstly, cut the railing parts leaving some "long legs". Then, drill holes on the plastic parts and stick the
"long legs" into the holes. :big_grin:

It would be tidy and VERY STABLE. :big_grin:

That's a great 'trick'! :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1:

Doing these tiny handrails in 1/700 as cleanly as you did is extremely difficult otherwise. But I guess with this technique it still took a fair amount of time and patience... :big_grin:

Thanks a lot, guys! :big_grin:

The non-slip texture on the plastic parts is over scale so I transfered the non-slip texture from a piece of PE to a 0.05mm plastic sheet and used it to replace the original non-slip texture.

Also remade the details on the anchor chain deck :big_grin:

Right...

You must have very steady hands, even to drill those holes so nicely aligned on such a surface. Sharp work, love the overall result! :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1:

What exactly do you mean with "transferred the texture" of the PE to a piece of styrene??

Hi~ :wave_1:
I placed a 0.05mm plastic sheet on a piece of PE and pressed it hard so that the texture from the PE would also be on the plastic sheet. This can be really helpful in some situations. Usually general texture PE sets are not in shapes you need and areneeded to be cut. However it's hard to cut a metal piece into some certain shapes and even harder to glue it well.
