Very nice, Dimitris!  Seeing you holding the cabin inbetween your fingers really shows how clean and crisp your workmanship is.

Hello shipmates, I do thank you all for your comments and visits to my build log. A small update as requested. I installed and painted the hand rails on stern rudder housing, i also painted the rudder. I constructed the three crates that belong to the bow deck.

Hi Dimitris,

Thanks for the links.  Pretty amazing stuff.  My eyes are slowly going south so I don't think I'll be building anything like that.

I do have my Amerigo waiting in the wings though, so I have been watching your progress.  Very nice.  What kind of wood did you use for the decking?  I think my kit has walnut for the deck and I don't like that.  Did you replace yours?  Doesn't look like walnut.

Hi Salty Dog, thank you for your nice comments . I used the kit's walnut strips. I varnished them (3 coats) with the premium Vallejo mat varnish code 62.062. Feel free to  ask anything you might need, I will gladly try to help.

Kind regards

Dimitris

Hi Dimitris,

We are ready to stop by every day, but where are new updates? I can't believe that you have nothing in your build to show us.

I look forward new photos!

Best Regards!

Igor.

Hi Igor, we are in the middle of Easter holidays and I'm practicing another favor hobby... Babysitting my kids which are of from school.

Igor,

Did you build that tiny ship?  Do you have any more pictures of it?  That's amazing!

 

Hi Salty Dog, I do thank you for passing by. No it's not my build.Here is the builder's link http://smallnavyfleet.weebly.com/. From Igor's post http://modelshipworld.com/index.php/topic/9377-unusual-ship-models/page-2.

Hello Dimitris, I agree with frank ref, the port holes, this being only your second model,your workmanship is awesome and I feel that's how you approach most things that you do,It's a pleasure to watch (and learn) your methods and approaches to ensure a good looking effort.Bravo. A belated happy Easter.Edwin

Hello my friend, I'm glad to hear from you again. I do thank you for your so nice comments and wishes.

Hello Robert, she is coming along very nicely.Keep up the good work and keep the photos coming.. :)

Very nicely done. If you soak the flag in water it will hang better, rather than stick out.

 

Mike

Hello Dimitris, very nicely built and finished.  Being a beginner myself I think I made the right choice to build the Bluenose II as well.  I am learning a lot from it. I will be visiting your post as I go along with mine.

 

Robert

Hello Robert, I do thank you for stopping by, for your nice comments and also for yout likes. Indeed the bluenose is a good build to start with. Your work is excellent so far (better than mine) :) Don't hesitate to ask anything you might need, I will gladly try to help.

Hi Dimitris

 

Great job you did on the Bluenose, she sure looks very nice and trim, this was also my first wooden ship, a joy to build and a great ship to learn on,                                                  ENJOY.
