Hi Fenris and welcome to Model Ship World. 

Hi Rui. Welcome to Model Ship World.  You are off to a good start in this hobby. I look forward to your future builds. 

Nice start on your workboat.  I really like these Chesapeake workboats.

Welcome to Model Ship World.  I look forward to seeing you build your Sphinx.  You will do just fine.

Congratulations on finishing this model.  I have enjoyed following your build log.

When I deleted them from the Upload Gallery they went away.

That is the correct solution to solving your problem.  Nice work on your Longboat.  I am looking forward to seeing it rigged.

Good start Danny and welcome to Model Ship World.

Welcome to Model Ship World Bogdan.  We are glad to have you aboard.

Welcome to Model Ship World.  You are starting off on the right way to build wooden ship models.  Please post some photos of your in-progress build.

Welcome to Model Ship World.  The book "Ship Modeling Simplified" got me started in this wonderful hobby.  About two years later, I joined the Hampton Roads Ship Model Society and unbeknownst to me, Frank Mastini was a member.  He became a mentor to me as I would drive from Richmond to his home in Virginia Beach for tips and techniques on building wooden ship models.  Unfortunately, he became sick about a year later, but I will always cherish the time I spent with him.

Welcome to Model Ship World.  We are glad to have you aboard.

Congratulations B.E. on this beautiful build.  I love the way the model sits on the keel blocks.  I have enjoyed following your build log.

Welcome to Model Ship World.  You have done a great job on the Lobster Smack and your full size boats are also works of art.  You will do just fine in this hobby.  The Longboat is a lot more difficult to build than what it looks like, but the model will turn out very nice.  I look forward to following your progress.

I attended the International Plastic Modelers Society (IPMS) National Convention in Hampton, Virginia, held August 6–9. My Club, the Hampton Roads Ship Model Society, had a display in the Clubs section where several of our members displayed their models.

The event was great, drawing people from all over the United States, many of them were ship modelers. There was a wooden ship model category sponsored by the Nautical Research Guild, so I entered my Medway Longboat.  I was thrilled to take home a third place award.

Here is a photo from the IPMS featuring my model:

Nice job on your Niagara.  Welcome to Model Ship World.

I just went through your build log and I am amazed at the quality of your work on this model, especially with it being your first build and with a limited amount of power tools.  You have documented your build very well and it will be an aid for future builders on this kit.  I am looking forward to your future progress as this is going to be a well built model.  Thanks for sharing your build with us.

Welcome to Model Ship World Terry.  I did a search for Bluenose build logs and found these:

I was under the impression that all the pictures I've posted on HMS Bellerophon and HMS Ramillies were placed in albums.

You had one picture titled HMS Bellerophon.jpg that was not in an album.  When I looked at your profile, I saw that you had an album titled HMS Bellerophon, so I moved that picture to your Bellerophon album. You had set up albums correctly for all of your other pictures, it was only this one picture that was not posted in an album.

Beautiful model.  Congratulations.

Welcome to Model Ship World Rob.  You have come to the right place to build your Constitution,  We are here to help you with your build.

Nice work.

Congratulations Kevin on completing this beautiful build.  You must feel mighty proud of this model.

Welcome to Model Ship World.  You are off to a good start on your Alabama.

Welcome to Model Ship World.  You have picked a good kit to start your journey in building wooden ship models.

Welcome to Model Ship World.  Glad to have you aboard.
