  1. The photos show a pretty impressive melee dio even without the farm buildings 👏 Some very nice work OC, cant wait to see the finale😁
  2. Small update, many thanks to Glenn, for allowing me to shamelessly borrow his remodeled bowsprit bits on his amazing Lady Nelson. sorry about the photo quality, I probably need to turn the flash off. thanks for the likes and comments, till next time, Cheers
  3. I think the camo looks fine, freehand with a brush, it's bl**dy good!!
  4. Good to see you back Phil, Hannah is looking great, I'm loving all the details and extras you're doing 😁
  5. We're not allowed to lay bricks 3°c and under. Makes for workshop time😁 My son-in-law is a painter and decorator and tries to keep inside work for poor weather.
  6. In one naval/seafaring novel I've read the smugglers kept one or two long guns on deck as chase guns probably 6 or 9 pdrs to try and disable the chasing revenue or RN vessel, but otherwise I would think a few swivels would be adequate to give a smuggler a bit of firepower. My twopence worth🙂
  7. Echoing the build request, it would be interesting to see your steam cutter.
  8. That approaches sacrilege, but whomever owns it will have riches enough not to care, I know if I had one I'd be scared to take it on the road in case I got it dirty 😃
  9. Very nice painting OC, are you using a uniform guide for the colour differences between regiments?
  10. Thanks Kevin, I'm a bricklayer and as such don't/can't/won't work in the rain. Delete as appropriate 😂
  11. I agree with Ekis on the arch stones, follow the curvature with a single large keystone top centre Photo from internet I think perhaps that you might need a gate house much like the York bar type Pic from net A good example is Micklegate Bar. I'll stop now and get my coat😂
  12. Thank you Glenn, you did a beautiful job of Lady Nelson, I've been having a read through, I will borrow your design for the bowsprit bits as it looks very good and much better than I had in mind, which would have been the same as the main bits but smaller. Cheers 😉
  13. The paints are opened and pieces sorted, construction begins!! I'm in two minds whether to watch from the easy chairs or the hammocks, as Lou says they're really comfortable 😄 I like the idea of a waterline setting😉 Happy building brother!
  14. Looking good OC ! Are they the Perry or the Victrix miniatures?
  15. It's basically tabletop wargaming with fantasy armies, set in the Games Workshop Warhammer World. Turn based combat, movement and missile fire. The rules can be figured to suit most historic periods from ancients to horse and musket/black powder era. For great war onwards Warhammer 40,000 could be utilised.😉
  16. Yep, if the dice were kind those crazy fanatics could devastate even the best troops although they could also do the same to your own troops😁
  17. I do like these aircraft, a lovely Kate, its getting me itching 😁 great job!!
  18. Guess I missed all the chairs, looks like the rafters for me, I'm in too🙂
  19. and welcome to MSW
  20. I think I think maybe it's because of the shared heritage between the British and American culture that it's marketed as Tudor or Elizabethan as that is what was the main building style in the UK at that time and perhaps some of the first migrants to "New England" took the style with them. Also when looking at medieval architecture in europe it seems most old world countries used similar techniques, if the wood was available as in the 14th century bricks were an expensive building material. Other villagers may be able to add extra information 🙂
  21. Very Nice job Craig, your cabinet is beginning to look like a very upmarket exclusive automobile showroom 😉
  22. At home today because of the rain, so thought I would make the bowsprit. Using my cordless drill and sandpaper I have got a basic shape also painted the windlass supports and the skylight body still got to make the ratchet and the bowsprit bits, which I'm thinking of putting the pal for the windlass on. Thanks to the encouraging comments and the likes. Cheers 😉
