With Manzanera Island in the spray shop, I decided to crack on with Fort Niebla.
Here I was lucky in two respects. There was an 18th century plan and I had enough parts left from the San Pedro build.
Scaling up the plan I fitted the parts which needed little fettling over the plan.
Next I cut a plasti-card base to the shape of the fort plan and assembled the parts
The next job will be fitting and gluing the walls in place.

The work continues with gluing up the fort.
The last piece goes in.
Rob.
Today I ubnder coated the fort.
Then gave it a base coat.
Whilst it was left to dry I marked out and rough cut the headland ready for terra forming tomorrow.
...
The first stage of this project was some more research.
I had used a blinking light for my first three Decker on fire and was unsatisfied with the rate of flashing being too fast.
I also needed something smaller for a 74 and a Frigate.
Hence I turned to some flashing Led earrings. here you can see the difference in scale even with the lug cut off the large Led.
Welcome back shipmates!
It would seem that I now have access to the Anchorage once more. Just how much remains to be seen as I try out the various sections.
