  1. Hi Alan I put it the coffee pot and boiled it. It still broke, so i put the heat gun one it after the coffee pot and got it to bend with out it breaking. hopefully ill get the starboard side to do the same as its a very sharp bend.
  2. Took two tries before i got it to bend without breaking.
  3. Had some guest over so had to put on some of the cloths.
  4. I just finished putting on the scrolls with the acrylic ink. Once that dries i will apply another layer this time with some of the tube acrylic to thicken up the paint. This will be followed by the addition of the burnt sienna, then the highlights, And finally touching up with the Prussian blue and cleaning up all the lines.
  5. Adding the pencil lines to the starboard side of the model.
  6. Preparing for the painting of the scrolls on the starboard side. Laying a good foundation.
  7. Yves i used Prussian blue which was recommended in the book.

  11. The reason i get so many nice tools from new york is that one of my daughter lives there and i send all my on line purchase tools to her apartment. Tools for woodworking. I’ve actually only found two great physical stores to visit. The first is “tools for woodworking “ . Its located in a bit of a grubby area so don't take your wife as i did. 112 26th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232. They also have a web site toolsforwoodworking.com so you can see what they have. The other is. jak Jewelry tools 37 west 46th street in Manhattan. You have to walk up a number of stairs and there is lots of security all around the place . I guess they must make jewelry around the area. Again they have a web site jakjewelrytools.com. My usual on line store is Lee Valley which has some wonderful miniature tools that i have shipped to her home.
  12. Oh dear, indoor swimming pool. Last night we had a electrical surge that resulted in fire in 4 homes in my neighborhood including mine when one of the multi plug strips burst into fire. We were luck that we were home that night.
