    Hello Heinz I also am asked those questions and told by people that they don't have patience enough it must be an international theme I too do not know what to say about your ship in English or any language as to how wonderful she is looking Best regards

    New update guys
    Started working on the anchors Saw Nigel's wonderful display and techniques Instead of using the brass for the straps I used chalk board tape I decided on it because one its self adhesive the other is because it's a flat black Second part was on the brass ring I used a double strand embroidery thread I split the strands apart and dipped them in half pva glue and water solution stretched them out to dry I wrapped the brass loop with the stiffened thread I wanted to add a nice little detail of rope wrapped around the cross member in a figure eight Also started putting together my little coranades
