    Undercoated and now ready for painting the details.

    The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.

    The fort is now painted and grassed, just awaiting the placement of its batteries and the raising of the Danish Standard.

    Outstanding! Is the white building entirely scratch-built?

    The white building was scratch built save for the frontage which is based on this one from Langton's.I cut the top down and bent the two ends just after the windows to form the 30 degree angled wings to the building. Then added the rest of the works. It just had the right number of windows to match the original.
