  1. Yes and just look at other builds on the forum, which finishes do you like the most?
  2. Beautiful work Nearshore! Those outside pictures with the natural light and wooden stand look amazing! (and tropical ) I like the wooden tool organizer your wife has made, it's nice that you can share your creativeness with each other
  3. Looking great! I agree with the colour variation...it's "alive" a bit more in that sence. How is working with the Cherry wood? I never used it myself, so I am curious
  4. What's the plan now? Working further on your beautiful Mary Rose? Or do you have new projects in the pipeline?
  5. If you look at the pictures from the HMS Victory, they seem to be unpainted. If I understand correctly, they're part of the deck, a sort of L-shaped plank that starts on the deck and ends in the bulwarks. That's why I consider them a deck component and leave them bare (varnished, of course). This isn't based on facts, but on my own observations, haha. 😄 I hope someone with real knowledge will come along Edit: I have included an illustration from Mondfeld's "historic ship models" where you can see how the waterway as I see it is part of the deck. Obviously this isn't a picture of the ship you're working on (not even of the time period), but personally I don't think there would be much difference?
  6. Welcome back
  7. Congratulations Baker! A very nice vessel, and I like the upgrades...well done 👏
  8. Thanks Frecap! I understand your thoughts on photoetch. In general...not sure i'm the biggest fan of it, mostly through it's flat appearance...but it can add a lot of details for the less skilled amongst us and sometimes you can get things more in scale with PE. But I also prefer to see as much wood as possible where possible.
  9. Welcome to MSW and lovely work so far!
  10. Good kit choice and start! I wish you a lot of fun with building this kit 🙂
  11. Love the deck Ross! Nice warm color and great joggling of the planks 👌
