Learning that... in fact, it seems quite easy to use, gluing quickly, but the fact that they are elastic may it tricky.. Plus, even if not stretching them much, they ended up bending my aft mast as per pic below (need to find a way to fix this to look better). Moreover, wondering how well they age.... Lesson learnt.

Thanks Chris. I was thinking about crew figures but same as weathering, being my first ship, I decided to keep it simple.

@GCB For a first time at a ship build, you absolutely nailed it! A very pristine job. It is super clean, very well detailed with all the fragile PE that goes into ship modelling. I can't wait to see your next one with the Bismarck! Again, outstanding build. Bravo!

Thanks Dan.. Checking how Pantherman builds his Bismarck and handle all PEs
