  1. Beautiful country Sweden. We went there a few times in the summer by car on vacation. Nice house and great work on the model.
  2. indeed. why didn't I see this will be by my age 👴😅
  3. Nice work on the stern planking Steven. Building a wooden long boat on 1/200 scale. what a challenge.
  4. wow, you go fast. I don't watch for a few days, and you're already rigging the ship Well done 👍
  5. Well spotted 👍 Went to the dentist to get a new tooth for the Centurion 😬🤣 The turret (the basic shape) is made of plastic plate and plaster. Yes plaster on plastic. I have been using it for over 15 years and am very satisfied with the results. Building the turret Dimensions look ok But the rear needed to be made thinner. the basic shape of the turret is ready, he looks pretty ok to me To be continued, thanks for folowing
  6. Norwegian or American. That doesn't matter to me. It is a very beautiful and detailed model. And the construction method is very clearly explained. Great work Geert
  7. Nice work on the model and the tools. A lost cat came to our house 2 years ago. We adopted him and he (Felix) is now our best friend
  8. I also count only 3 wales with the Bounty models 2 smaller and 1 wide My Bounty model was just a plastic model but quite a challenge In post 1 you will find a link of drawings from the original model
  9. I don't have any belaying pins on my Pelican / GH. In this period, belaying pins were not yet in use. The Mayflower is 40-50 later, she may have had these pins
  10. looks very good Jeff. Congrats on your work
  11. This is indeed a very neat planking 👍
  12. Continue with the hull. The modifications for a Mk.1 on the engine compartment with plastic strip Extra details and cabels at the rear. the Turret .. The author of the article explains the construction method very well. Unfortunately, it does not provide any dimensions or clear construction drawings. That is why we start with the bottom plate and some "frames" as supports for the sides and tops of the turret. To be continued, thanks for following.
  13. Do they still have a different color after sanding? Maybe the color problem will be solved after sanding.
  14. You will not see such costumised cars in Belgium very often. Too much paperwork and extra inspections before you can drive it on public roads. And then park somewhere with the windows open 😲 It will be empty when you return from shopping ... It is possible to order a personalized number plate for your car in Belgium (costs 1000 euros extra). Will be a nice model
  15. The nice thing about German camouflage between 1943-45 is that there is plenty of room for free interpretation. If you don't want to use a brown color, that's fine too. The only "general rule" for most German vehicles (Panthers also) is : Sand color as a basis. Green and or brown as additional colors. No green and no brown, but only sandcolor is also allowed. And when it snows and you have white paint and a brush. Then... a whitewash Have fun
  16. Looks much better Are you also going to add brown to the cammo?
  17. Greetings from Belgium. Here it is now 14h. 19 minutes in the afternoon (we dont do AM and PM over here). Good luck with the Bounty model.
