Very nice barrels. Pewter figurines used to be rather popular till someone found out than neither the production nor the playing with it was not without some health hazards Perhaps your hippie-dude uses resin nowadays. Have seen some very nice results with that. also in this forum: Jan

Sometimes Ithink those soldiers were very, very tired of war, and rather proud of their superior machines. In that case 'telling the enemy' doesn't count anymore, telling others on how the machine operates still does. Jan

That is not true, although you don't see the individual parts, you do see the difference between a model with and without PE. Espcially when done with care, like yours. and if only seen on pics, we can only encourage you to place more pics Most of the small scales here are warships. Itis niceto see something slightly more peacefull jan

Here you can see the shoulder-rests of the gun. (I think different type of gun/sub, but the principle is the same: the rests help to steady and point the rather heavy gun) Tpic downloaded here: http://www.ww2technik.de/dsub_geschuetze.htm Jan

Hello Yves, I hardly dare to ask the question, but isn't the shoulderrest of the smaller gun upside down? I thought those brackets should rest on the shoulder of the gunman. Jan

What's wrong with the grass? It is green, and looks healthy. That's mre than you can say about my grass...... the model is getting along nicely. Fluits are the more difficult togetitright: nasty roundings everywhere.... Jan

Isn't that too easy for you, just buying near perfect guns, without any PE to add to it? Is your PE deck glued? It looks as if there is a little gap between deck and the underlying structure. Jan

You have my attention. long, very long time ago I ordered some drawings at Smit-international to do a modern tug. I ended up with Billings Rotterdam. The drawings are still lying around somewhere, fading I guess. Jan

I was (again) looking at your last development. Wondering: what paint does he use, and how is the guilding done? It is not flashy gold-leaf, but is also not just yellow ochre-paint. Jan

Nope, just curious when you mentioned the problem. Jan

Sorry, I thought they were hosted here, as the link-address that pops up hovering over those question marks is something like this: https://modelshipworld.com/uploads/monthly_09_2014/post-96-0-67177900-1412022422.jpg That refers to a non-existent file, but with msw in the address.... That made me think 'should be visible, but is not....' Jan

The funny thing is: those are jpg’s hosted at MSW. (The two main reaons for problems) They should be visible, I think..... Jan

At 1:64 definitely too big for both my bench and my house. (probably also too big for my bankaccount ) But a wonderfull model it will make... I'm still hoping for someone going into the McNarry/Philip Reed sized kits . I'm not a good enough builder (and have far too litte machinery) to go into that direction by myself, but that size would fit both bench and house.... (not sure about the bankaccount, though: Chris already explained to me a long time ago that smaller models do not come at a substantially lower price) Jan

build logs order
amateur replied to Papa's topic in How to use the MSW forum - **NO MODELING CONTENT**
I don't think I understand you question. when opening a thread, the software places you at the first unread post. That sounds reasonable to me. I would not like to go back and search for the last post I read. When a log has more pages, you can skip to the last one by using the pages-numbers and arrows next to it (single arrow:next page, double arrow:last page) Or do I miss your point completely? Jan -
In the dutch navy we had protected and armoured cruisers. Protected cruisers had an armoured deck (pantserdek kruisers in Dutch) armoured cruisers had an armoured belt at the waterline. (Pantserkruiser in Dutch) My favourit dutch protected cruiser is the Gelderland-class. No model available Slighty later than the german cruiser described above. There is a very nice cardmodel of beowulf (by hmv, scale 1:250). Is on my wishlist. I guess you are aware of the german forum dedicated to the Kaiserliche Marine? (Edit: I checked: unless your name is used by someone else you are ) Jan

I had decided that my house became too small for another dull size wooden model, but now I am seriously, very seriously tempted indeed..... How many months do I have to turn the missus around? Jan
-
Have you seen the new Amati prototype 1:64? Now that would really give you the possibility to add small details. Jan
-
would you please stop mixing pics of the real bike in between pics of your your model? honestly: for some parts it is only for the background that we can see that it is a model great work Jan

Is this a cutter build on aplug? Looks a very convincing cutter. I'm very curious what the next one will be. pics till now looked promising. Little space left in my cupboard, butI might be tempted.... Jan
