Wonderful work, Marsalv.   The stern window decorations just inspired me to give something like that a try for my ship's taffrail.

I getting to sound like a broken record! Brilliant, amazzzzing workmanship. The decorations are a treat for anyone. I sure I don't have to say "keep up the yood work", because you always do.

It's easier for me to repeat what I've said before.

Simply amazing

Marsalv,

Brilliant work.  Everything is so preccise.  How did you make the lettering for the ship's name?  I am assuming the ornamental work for the stern is hand carved?

Thanks to all for very nice comments.

To toms10: The lettering is made with scroll saw. The same procedure is used for ornaments (with some hand carvings).

To EdT: I am very happy that you like my work because YOU are the true master on this forum :).

I started with preparation of aft cabin bulkheads.

Hello Marsalv,

 

Great work and lovely paint job you did. Especially the Blue is looking very close to the colour on models of the NMM. May I ask you what kind of Blue from which manufacturer you have used for your build?

 

Cheers, Daniel

Cheers,

Daniel

Splendid work, Marsalv.! I usually fit the hanging knees after the beams are installed but I may rethink that after seeing your photos.

Neat, beautiful work, but the back edge of the flooring cut is not very smooth...

Derrrr! are you looking at the same photos as the rest of us? I don't think so!

Greg! Photo No. 4 dated 5 March 2016. The parquet aft cabins. For some reason I see the flaws, but many people do not notice. Once I pointed out to the Builder of the model in the absence of curvature of the deck in the transverse incision, he stopped building this model, alas...

Hi to all,

so after a long break back to "work" .

To Tom - used wood is boxwood and steamed pear

To Nigel - No, I don´t.

To Greg - I had to instal the hanging knees before beams due colloring of inner bulwarks, but I like it.

To aviaamator - sorry for flaws. I agree that real part of deck is little bit simplified because the interior will not be visible.

Sorry for delay with reply.

As another part I chose the production of guns. Guns will be turned from brass, the problem is that turning is a completely new thing for me and so far I'm learning it. I've ruined so much material over and spent so much time that would be cheaper to buy finished guns. On the other side it is the great challange for me. I hope that in a few days I will be able to "show" some result. For now at least I prepared various eyelets and hooks.
