  1. Sad to hear but can sympathise, had a house fire and although all ok now made me rethink all the possessions and unfinished projects, gave away a lot and kept just a handful and trying to get the motivation back. Hope all goes well.
  2. Beautiful build and well done on completing it. The night shots really are evocative. Waitoa
  3. The trees and scenery really bring it to life.
  4. Amazing progress and look forward to see how you get on with the static grass and landscaping
  5. They may want to try sailing clubs. My father who has sadly passed away managed to get himself shipwrecked and was part of a small group at his club who had all had misadventures in the Sth Pacific.
  6. Looking really good and the lights add an extra dimension. Think you did a good job with the painting and look forward to seeing this build progress
  7. Have you thought of getting some figures 3D printed? I have a number for my build and you can get a wide range of characters and poses. Need to get back to mine but my son has me helping him paint Warhammer and Lord of the Rings figures. Keep up the good work it is inspiring me to dust mine off and do some more buildings.
  8. Looks good I have one in my stash and hopefully be able to achieve the same quality result as yours
  9. Beautiful model and had the joy of going on the real boat in the middle of falling snow will need to ad this to my build list
  10. Finished the carronades that I intend to fit. Trying to get slowly more accurate in terms of rigging guns but the scale and my incompetence works against me. The real Surprise was rigged with carronades but the having read the books I don’t see any reference to them being used other than ballast but I could be wrong. I just like the brute look of them so thought a few at the bow would look good.
  11. Making slow progress and on the more fun part when the little details start to detract from the faults. Fingers crossed that 2023 I finally finish this!
  12. Looking good, appreciate how much fun it is prepping all the stones, I think you are doing a great job
  13. No way you could do that, as long as you are enjoying it and building it the way you see it in your eye’s mind that I think is all that matters
