  1. That looks really beautiful on the launch, it compliments the lines somehow of the ship.
  2. Me too...same as the "drop" below the quarter gallery's of the Sphinx kit. I think it's a simplification of carving work or painting, but not sure either.
  3. To be honest...I don't know yet. I'm at a point with my model where I haven't had to sand since I bought it. I tested it briefly, and it works well. However...it's not super powerful. I have it as a supplement so my workspace doesn't completely get covered in dust, but I still wear a face mask when sanding larger areas. especially MDF
  4. Nice clean work! Those angles and curves higher at the stern section are not easy to get right
  5. Welcome back!
  6. Welcome! I wish you a lot of fun and learning here
  7. That is beautiful made! Love that last picture...if things are made at the right scale they look really convincing....nicely done!
  8. Maybe put some links/brands in the text? Or did I miss it
  9. Thanks! Learning history here 😁👍
  10. To be honest...it's the first time I hear the term "Restoration period". Was your Revenge 1577 design from Amati also from this period? Or was this to early?
  11. https://www.trustpilot.com/review/premiershipmodels.co.uk Bit of mixed reviews on Trustpilot. It seems to happen more often there that they have models "in stock," but later it turns out they still have to be ordered from the manufacturer. Perhaps that's what's happening to you too?
  12. I wish I had experience with Shellac so I could give you a honest opinion...but only used WOP (home made, not the ready-made American brand). That said, I do like how it looks and the workability of WOP.
  13. I'm also starting to find it more and more difficult with all those little protrusions etc. that I can knock off, especially considering that I still have quite a bit of internal work to do, such as installing the quarterdeck etc. 🤞
  14. Not only a waste of time, but also a lack of honor for your work... something you develop and then don't put into production. I can imagine that doesn't exactly bring you joy in your work.
  15. Good interview! Nice to hear some insights and you did well Chris👍. Also fun to hear that you picked Sphinx as your favorite design 😀
