    Schweet ! I was contemplating duplicating my sails the same way, but I was a tad afraid the cloth wouldn't come off once the white glue had dried. You've saved me some experimenting, thanks !

    I'm a new subscriber after watching your superb build of the Revell 'Vasa'. I built the Airfix version years ago which was before washes and airbrushes etc became popular so the entire thing was brushpainted. It didn't come out too badly but I now know that many of the colours were totally inaccurate. I've had the Revell one awaiting my attention for about a year so your video was very informative - many thanks. I have two models as work in progress to finish (the Russian protected cruiser 'Varyag' and the rare Airfix 1:48 scale TSR 2) and once they are finished I will be doing the Vasa once again with your video guidance. Thanks again for sharing your skills.

    Alex, what can I say. You're no longer a scale modeller. You are now an artist! Top stuff.

    Hi Alex, incredible again. Watched the Victory build a few times and bravo again for that, but this is the first viewing of you making sails. I now have the same Victory kit plus the Revell Mayflower and they will have cloth sails. Thank you sir.
