  1. Thanks greetings Thanasis, very welcome !!! Mauro
  2. Hello Wayne, thank you so much for the birthday wishes and congratulations to the model. Mauro
  3. Thank you very much, in fact the target of '50 not happen every day, I hope to count another 50 !!! Mauro
  4. Hi Bob, I hope I do not ruin my model with the paint, it is the hardest part and the one that is most noticeable . Mauro
  5. From the picture you posted the original Italian is very clear, obviously it's Italic boats that have gone to fish in Greek waters, no doubt about it !!! Mauro
  6. Hi Thanasis, would be interesting to investigate whether the fishing boats photographed in Greek ports are Italian boats that have "unlimited" in the Aegean Sea or used boats even by Greek fishermen. Mauro
  7. The sail was already included in the kit, in this case I had to work it a little to make it similar to the original. I used normal acrylic paint to paint the decoration on the canvas. Mauro
  8. Hi Thanasis , I do not know if the paranza pushed to the Aegean Sea in fishing trips, their shape makes them good boats for the shallow waters typical of the Adriatic Sea, poorly adapted to sail in the open sea. But I can not exclude that in some cases some sailor more "adventurous" has been pushed to the Greek waters, even while surfing not too far from the coast. I take advantage of the 'opportunity to congratulate you for your wonderful models of traditional Greek boat, an encyclopaedia for images on the Greek maritime culture. Mauro
  9. For a few weeks he's building a model of paranza , typical boat of the Adriatic Sea. The kit of Corel, actually the end result will deviate from the original project because I want to build the fishing boat "Mirella", the museum boat sea of Cesenatico. That's what I want to play .... Mauro
  10. I finished placing the copper plates on the hull. Mauro
  11. Copper plating of the hull, work in progress !!! Mauro
  12. I painted on the hull of the false doors of the guns. Mauro
  13. I finished the planking and I almost finished painting the hull, at the same time I'm building the cutter of the brig. The kit provides only 2 boats metal, it will build 7 (as in the original) using very thin strips of wood. Not sure of being able to sell all the boats on board, maybe I'll have to discard some. Mauro
  14. I built a small boat to lay on the deck, in the coming days will clothe with strips of walnut. Mauro
  15. Thanks Bob, we hope that the sailors did not drink the contents of the barrels !!!!!!!Mauro
