  1. Sounds like you're cracking on at a fair pace with this one now OC! And bugger it I've missed the curry again!! 😄😉
  2. Looks good, I'm also looking forward to seeing the top works begin. I don't envy you your weather, not that keen on the white stuff🥶😬 Glad to hear you be getting the jab soon, I am still waiting to hear when I get mine, although the Admiral has already had hers, along with my two daughters who work for the NHS. Stay safe and stay warm😉
  3. Blimey Denis, what with this, Clothilde and your PT boat you've been busy! As others have said, good to see you back on the wood, both these are looking nice. You may have said earlier, but are you giving these sails?😉
  4. Not done much on the Cutter, I have tried making my own rigging hooks, At the moment I'm a bit haphazard and irregular in their shape and form, but I'll persevere. Probably need to solder the eye piece to stop them pulling apart. Thanks for looking in and the likes 😉 Cheers
  5. Again absolutely amazing!! It looks as though the tavern might be open for a flaggon or two😁🍺🍺 I think an MSW coach trip needs to be considered
  6. Great work on the bashed turret, I would not know it wasn't designed specifically for the Challenger if you hadn't said😉
  7. The rattle of iron shod cart wheels and the ring of the hammer on the anvil, it's coming to life now animals are in residence 🙂
  8. Very nice, cool lights! The base is the finishing touch.
  9. Undead cyborgs, someone at Games Workshop has a great imagination. Is there a danger to the village from them?🙃
  10. After the Vindicator is through dealing with the bugs I doubt there would much of the village left.🥴
  11. Ahh a Tyrannid! what the village needs now are some Blood Angel Space Marines😁.
  12. Thank you kindly Glenn. I got the winning bid on the boxwood rule, £1.50 + p+p, not bad for 36 linear inches of boxwood, looks like a bit of practice making blocks is on the cards🙂
  13. I think OC knows how to do a soft blend type line or EG. Something to do with blu-tak Coming on nice Mike, I do like the grey colour!
  14. Looking good, also liking the hydra type beast attacking the wall, I think the guards are out of their depth!😁
  15. But if it wasn't a bit out there it wouldn't be Lamborghini 😉
  16. Thank you for your encouraging words Derek, I have had a look on Ebay and have bid on a 36inch folding rule. If successful I'm giving blocks a go. With Syren not making rope any more and reading the articles on rope making, I'm definitely thinking of making my own ropes but will have to wait till I can get Chuck's rope rocket, but that wont be until the rush for them has died down. I shall let you know how I get on with the block making 🙂 The deck has been repaired and it's nothing the mast ring won't hide😊
  17. Thanks to everyone for stopping by 😉 I decided to have a crack at making the deadeyes for the shrouds and mainstay, the wood is cheap pine dowels from my local DIY store, therefore if I do use these on the ship they'll get painted These five took over 3 hours, but that includes all the unusable ones as well 😁 Only have another twelve to make. On the strength of this I may even attempt making the blocks too😏😬 Cheers Oh, also I've damaged the deck planking, as the drill bit snagged and jumped when enlarging the hole for the mast☹😩, I have to replace two pieces of deck plank and make a slightly larger ring for the foot of the mast, these things happen🙄
  18. Good news indeed!😄 Have fun and stay warm! Don't forget the photos 😉 Here is staying between 0°c and -2°c and that's kept me off work all week 😶
