  1. Bill, welcome to MSW. I hope you're able to find a model that grabs your interest. If you do, please start a build log and join in the party.
  2. Tom, Pat, Keith, and Phil, thank you for the encouraging words and thank you to all for the likes. Today I finished the fore lower yard which looks just like the main lower yard so I'll save MSW some bandwidth and not post a photo. Because of Spring I've been in the yard a lot so finding time to work on the spars has been a challenge. When I do get a chance to work on them, I'm struggling getting the small fiddly bits positioned exactly where I want them to go. Struggling does not make the task enjoyable, obviously I'm having eyesight issues. I've tidied up the worktable and I'm going to try rearranging my lighting and if that doesn't help I'm going to order a magnifier hood. As of now I'm dependent on my reading glasses. Everyone enjoy the warmer weather, take care, and thank you again.
  3. Gus, I like the stain you chose, it's a very pleasing color. Your project is coming along nicely.
  4. Matey, welcome to MSW. I hope you'll start a build log for your San Francisco model.
  5. Brian, very believable modeling, well done! The propulsion system is spot on and the armor platting came out great, love the bolt/rivet head look.
  6. Ben, welcome to MSW. I look forward to seeing your Le Marteagou build log.
  7. Mr P, welcome to MSW.
  8. TH, welcome to MSW.
  9. Henry, I hope you and the restoration are doing well. I look forward to seeing an update on your efforts.
  10. Impressive to say the least, the workmanship is absolutely beautiful.
  11. Mike, it could have been illness or failed eyesight/loss of dexterity due to old age or the unthinkable. Glad to see you're taking the opportunity to finish the model and make whoever for whatever reason proud.
  12. Bill, welcome to MSW. I look forward to seeing your Swift build log.
  13. It looks like they did a nice job on the hull.
  14. Hello little Julia, welcome to MSW. Pull up a highchair and enjoy yourself.......Marc, what a precious child.
  15. Veszett, not if you're facing south. I think most models are displayed from the starboard side because most reading/writing is left to right. It would be interesting to see if that holds true for models built by those in Middle Eastern countries where reading/writing is right to left.
  16. Francis, welcome to MSW.
  17. Halvor, welcome to MSW. Good luck with your first build.
  18. Steven, she's really looking nice. The shields turned out great. Your childhood memories have a bright future.
  19. Joseph, welcome to MSW. Enjoy this new phase of modeling and please take advantage of looking through the build logs of others. You'll not only find inspiration but also answers to questions you have during your builds.
  20. Photos 10 and 11 are indeed stunning and very believable. Keith, brilliantly executed!
  21. Siggi, beautifully carved. These are more open and airy compared to the first ones. The first scrolls were 7.5 and 8 mm, these two are 12 mm. Are they for the same location port side?
  22. Bitao, thank you. She's light for her looks, all the timbering makes her look heavier. Forgive me for asking if the answer has already been discussed earlier in your build log......what are your plans regarding planking?
