GPM card TID Tug Build

Nice addition to the forum, not many do video logs, 


My old man built the mobile marines tig tug a few years ago, with the intention to stick a steam plant in it, he opted to build a steam launch instead of wasting the plant burried in superstructure, anyway a few photos of him build help give you some inspiration.

Makes me wish I had grandkids   Still I can't have it both ways

OK, stuck again!

It seems there are two layers for the hull 'plating', an inner / under layer ( Light grey on the hull frame ) and an over / out layer that's colour / 'paint' layer. ( dark pieces at he top ) ... does that sound about right for a card / paper model?

Also, what is all the 'pinking' for?

The instructions translate as:
See also Hatch aft cz.1m + n. Keel plating cz.3 top up cz. 3a, similarly, the sides of the cz.4L and P, 4AL - P and 4bli P. We glue them to the skeleton, then stick them to the cz. 5P and L, merged with cz.5aL and 5aP [Figure 4]. Mount a stand under model, with cz.60 and 60A [Figure 2]. We can install as two separate elements: cz. 6L and P + 6AL and P. 6bl and P + 6cl and P. Po they are connected to the hull by straps of cz.6d L and P + 6eL and P.

I don’t see any “pinking” honestly I have no clue what part goes where having never done this kit before, I’m just enjoying your build,

If all else fails what do the instructions say 

I imagine the pinking is so it folds along the line without creasing as it curves too

Another excellent episode, what camera and editing software do you use to record with, I have an older HD fujifilm camera I barely use but it’s got a lot of options, was tempted to do a video log myself at some point, suggestions?

I've used several RR, but now I mainly use Filmora9 as it's simplest (fastest) to use.
