Hi Rogal
I have used silk or cloth like the real ones so the print shows through. As Colin says you can also buy on-line.

Cannot recall where I found the detail. Think it was from amalgamating the various plans and photos from the Internet.
Attached is my interpretation.
I also deduced the wheel was downstairs and instructions were passed to the helmsman.
Just had inspiration. 2757 is/was in the RAF Museum in London. Am sure a request to the curator might get you a picture. Wish I had tried just so would know am right!

Very nice craft Rowen.it always amazes me when I see other guys models and how they have interpreted the plans and photos. I say to myself many a time. What an idiot I was to have missed that detail, it’s obvious when I see how another guy has modelled a feature. Mind you it works the other way as well. But each to our own, that’s what model boating is all about. Thanks for your kind interest, and as always value your opinions.
As you can see I have gone for the far/near east version in white and intend to fit the sun shades soon as seen in the photos behind my boat. A lot of fine detail still to fit, but this is the part I like constructing the most.Im stuck for detail for the flying bridge dash board. Am I right in thinking that the craft is not steered from here, just directed by the captain. Unlike the Brave that has a wheel in the flying bridge. Any thoughts ,comments?

Hi Roger,
Followed your Brave and Orca projects with interest.
Build my RTTL based on a MTBHulls hull.
As you can see turned out well and sails just as nicely.
Some what easier than the Brave because only twin motors.
Based mine on E2754 so the mahogany plank lines in the hull are omitted.
Best Rowen.

Hi the flags were printed on normal Matt photo paper to see what they came out like. Have you any thing better to suggest they are very stiff, 1st attempt though!.

Hi Rowen. Remember our conversation a couple of years ago when I started the Brave Borderer. I made a hull but was not happy with its strength, so put it to one side and bought a glass fibre one.well as you probably have seen in my numerous blogs here how it turned out. Very happy with it, she is a bit fast for our pond but I have taken her to Cleethorpes on hols with me as they have a huge lake in the park there.
anyway I’m going of subject. After the Brave I built the Orca another beauty I love it.
So then I resurrected the Braves spare hull after buying a set of RTTL plans.they are nearly the same shape, although the Rttl needed to be five inches shorter, so I chopped some of the stern and fitted a new transom.
I’ve not done a blog or took any photos of the building processes. But as you have taken the time to ask Thankyou here’s a sneak preview, should be completed in a few weeks time. I’m working on her full time now as I retired last Christmas. Here’s some photos hot of the press as they say. Well iPad really.

Hello fellow modellers,
I have just been producing/ printing a couple of union flags for my RTTL. I printed them out then realised that if I pasted 2 flags back to back the printing would not match through, so for one side I reversed/ flipped the image so it would line through now. But then realised one side would be wrong.
My question is what happens on the opposite sides of a real flag. We don’t see to many close up in my part of the world. Here’s a photo of my print out.
