    Not liking the strange poop decks on the Hebes and following Jonas' lead, I continue to modify old hulls to be flush decked. One day these will get masts.
    Sorry, coming in late to this. What Langton stern are you using to replace the cutaway on this ship Dobbs?

    I'm using the stern windows that came with the model, just gently sanded to fit. If you shave across the forward edge of the roundhouse/poop deck, that gets you inside the back of the model and gently shaving with a #11 Xacto knife allows you remove the poop entirely and take the forward wall down to with the flush deck. Hmmm, maybe I should avoid using poop and flush in the same sentence. I then used a small file and sandpaper to shape the topsides of the ship around the aft cabin.

    Jonas has a sweet deal because he's local with the Langtons (lives in Europe). I had to order a whole ship to get the stern for my Tonnant conversion by Jonas' instruction.

    ...and thanks Rob and Vol, for the rep points!
