vossiewulf Posted February 18, 2019 Share #605 Posted February 18, 2019 Seriously, how do you get the lines to drape like that? Even the line-draping is ridiculously perfect. As is the joinery, as usual. dvm27, paulsutcliffe, VACorsair and 5 others 8 Quote Building HM Cutter Lady Nelson 1:64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VACorsair Posted February 18, 2019 Share #606 Posted February 18, 2019 Is it just me or is everyone else amazed at the fit and finish he achieves with every piece and joint? paulsutcliffe, Obormotov, mtaylor and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vossiewulf Posted February 19, 2019 Share #607 Posted February 19, 2019 Yes, everyone is amazed because as far as we can tell he never, ever does anything that's not flawless. Hence my hypothesis that he's not actually human, and has multiple prehensile arms and is orbiting Saturn. It would explain a lot. druxey, mtaylor, Obormotov and 1 other 4 Quote Building HM Cutter Lady Nelson 1:64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amalio Posted February 19, 2019 Author Share #609 Posted February 19, 2019 Of course. Sometimes there is something that you do not like at all and you do it again until you like it. Would not it make sense to keep working so long on something that you know is wrong, or that is ugly .............. no? coxswain, Captain Poison, paulsutcliffe and 7 others 9 1 Quote AMALIO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dvm27 Posted March 9, 2019 Share #624 Posted March 9, 2019 It must be very difficult for you to decide how much of that beautiful joinery, such as the mortises in the hanging knees, to cover over or keep exposed.
