You can order sheet walnut from Model Expo. I ordered some 1/4"x3"x24" about a year ago. They have many sizes available.

Zoran from Maris Stella said that it a white piece of wood and it does not matter because it painted white.

Much more efficient to send photos from my tablet

Gun deck planking, by gluing each peice end to end they are 3.5mm to long

 

[hammer80]

The other side was the same I adjusted the peices wonder if it worth the effort to plank

 

[Corsair]

good use of the battery too.
