Angarfather reacted to EJ_L in La Couronne by yancovitch - FINISHED - RADIO
I try not to think of how much work I still have left to do overall as it can become rather frustrating. Instead, I try to keep a close up view and stick with small goals. Complete a mast and a top, finish rigging a set of shrouds and ratlines, things like that. Mini goals make me feel like I am accomplishing something as I cross them off.

Many thanks for your kind words!
Last two days I practiced in drawing Acathus leaves. Today I tried to carve the middle part of the decoration rails. Since there is now exact drawing from the original, I have designed it by myself.

Angarfather reacted to flying_dutchman2 in Carving tools, books and carving woods discussion
Here is part 2 of Carving from The German Nautical Journal, 'Das Logbuch'. The subject is a female and male figure.
Again, worth a look. Be forewarned there are pictures of anatomically correct male and female drawings. (I hope no one will be offended).

Angarfather reacted to captainbob in SS Mariefred by captainbob - 1:96
Hooray, I finally did it. Try, try again they say, so I did. I ended up throwing the first three tries away, but I kept the fourth. The part is the little deck house on the lower rear deck. You can just see a part of it in one picture, but luckily the plans are of the boat as built in 1903. Some time ago the deck house was removed and the rear area of the lower deck was enclosed all the other pictures of the Mariefred show her this way. I just went back and looked at the pictures I posted earlier and they are all of the more recent boat. So here is a picture of the Mariefred as I will be building her.

Lawrence, thanks for stopping by. I wish I were farther along but due to chronic family health problems, I only get to work on the boats, 1 - 2 hours a day, if that. The rest of the time I'm the care giver, cook, House cleaner and . . . Enough of that. The Mariefred is a riveted steel boat. And I like Nils I hope to plate her, something I've never tried before. The other problem is figuring out what to use for some of the parts. The upper deck supports and seating frames are 35 X 35 mm angle iron or 1.38" at scale that is .0138. I have seen other models where they have used larger material for these parts and they end up looking bulky and out of scale. Ah well that's the kind of problem all model builders go through. I know, I'll set up a foundry and extrude my own material. (Pardon the humor).
