In addition to plastic and cardboard there is photo-etched and brass.

I keep moving forward with Balboa.
The welding shop canopy.

Would it be possible to add another photo in the series you just completed in your last magnificent posting giving us a view of "the Spanish adventurers stairway" dead ending into the wall before other structures interfere with a close up view? I think just another slight rotation would do the trick.
I am thoroughly enjoying your careful documentation of this build. Your photography and selection of poses is spot on. As Ed has said, "a treat for the eyes". In the USA we modelers often refer to this as "eye candy".
Thanks, Dave S Tucson, AZ
Ed, it's funny that you compare me to two golf stars. It is a sport that does not attract me much, but what a coincidence, I live in front of a golf course, near hole 10. You watch me from somewhere.
Dave, I've done these three takes, I hope they work for you.
Greetings.

The three additional photos are perfect. Basically they show exactly what I hoped to see.
I sent you a personal message through the forum.
Later, Dave S.
Dave, I saw the message, I answered you.
More progress with Balboa. The bracket for the oil tank and tank.
Greetings.

The colors, tones, weathering and details you have established in this set of photos is incredible. Behind every nook and cranny there is something hidden to explore. I look forward to each new set of photos and stage of your build. Thanks for documenting in such a detailed manner. It is quite enjoyable to follow your creative work.
Over the period of years that I have been a member of the SWSM forum group I have been exposed to an immense amount of talent and and an explosion of creativity. But what strikes me most about this group is the camaraderie and the willingness of fellow modelers to share their experience and creativity so openly. For that I am truly thankful.

Yes, I made a template with a typeface very similar to O'Neills, same length and height, and laser cut it.
If you look at the oil tank, you will see that it is upside down. I didn't notice that detail and have fixed it by adding a styrene strip to the bottom. You will see it in future photos.
Greetings.

Another little progress, the wooden fence.
And what I told you yesterday, the styrene profile that I placed in the lower part of the oil tank, due to the big mistake I had.
Not bad, not if you come to appreciate.
Greetings.
