    jbelwood got a reaction from Bob Cleek in Show pictures of your work area   
    I've shown this photo of my workshop in a previous thread on the same topic. This was taken last November. The Portland is somewhat further along.
    A portion of my 12' x 16' model railroad is seen at the far left. The second photo, shot by Phil Monat, gives you an introduction to the level of detail 
    I incorporated over 33 years of construction. Layout has approximately 8' of water front.

    Thank you very much for the likes and comment.
     
    The panels were completed and glued into position.  You could leave them like that with just the empty panels which has been seen on many contemporary models.  In this case I chose to insert printed friezes into them like the contemporary model shown above.
     
    I actually patterned the same same frieze design from that contemporary model and used it on my prototype.  What do you guys think.   I will be working on the step into the stern sheets next and then started on the outboard details again shortly after.

    Sarah,
     
    I am so sorry to hear of your dads passing. His passion for his hobby must have brought much joy to the entire family.
     
    I live nearby in lower Fairfield County and would love to have the opportunity to obtain one of his models. I belong to
    the Connecticut Marine Modelers Society that gathers each month at the University of New Haven. In our 50 years of
    existence we have experienced several of our members "pass over the bar", so to speak, leaving their families with the
    same decision. Perhaps we can offer some help as many of our 40 members live in this part of Connecticut. Not sure 
    how you can contact me privately but am sure one of the administrators will help.

    I received this book from my wonderful wife today on my 77th birthday. What a beautiful piece of work. Justin Camarata is

    the final results pictured in this book. The tutorials on making water are of particular interest to me.

    Not near the scope of your project,but just yesterday I rebuilt a metal model train car that has been poorly assembled with contact cement. A little soak in lacquer thinner and Voila! a new kit!. I'm gonna have to keep an eye on this build. Should be fun.
