Brig hull textures
Added 2019-02-14 06:24:56 +0000 UTCHere a first look at the upcoming brig texturing. I have got the hull - outside and inside - textured and go my build this far.
My work pipeline allows for pretty accurate parts except for one step, the core layer. This one I need to reduce a little so that from bow to stern everything will glue together nicely. And this time I made a pretty wrong guess :-) You can see that the stern plate was way too wide and also the hull formers had to be trimmed a lot to make them fit. I went back and fixed that, so the next build should be a bit more clean.
But other than that I think it looks great so far. Actually you need to trim a bit in any case for the fine tuned fit so it wasn't that bad.
Now I look forward to texture the deck. As you can see the interior cabin space is filled with formers but I will provide deck texturing plates for the main deck going back into the interior too, in case anyone wants to kitbash something there. I will just focus my builds on what you can easily access from the outside. If interior game play is wanted or required I imagine one would lay the interior plates on the gaming table and work out the interior action there.
Here's a view of the back. I went for the straight line at the bottom because I want to add the option of adding a gallery (balcony) and that will be so much easier to add/glue when that end section is straight!
That's all for today. I will go back to working on the deck :-)
Until next time, have fun and keep building,
Chris
