  1. Many thanks Uwe, Paul and John, my wife has become a repair of one of her heart valves, and is now, glad to say, on the way of recovery. For the Elbe 1 I need to sort in the next steps in progress, there are quite a lot of ends to pick up.... Nils
  2. Hello fellow builders, after quite some months, due to the aid for my wife, i find some time again to carry on with the build log. Here some pics of the progress..... Nils --the bow sprit in place wit preliminary attached chains the boats and the boats gear in place, also the raw lightmast in place the stairs in place and the planked roofdeck of the wheelhouse I`ll rigg the portside Boat in lowered position
  3. Beautíful work Yves, I was allways wondering how the triangle shaped spaces underneath the gundecks were to be cleaned, as there must have quite a smell coming from underneath. I knew thar there were some triangle shaped scuppers to the hull outside in that area. Probably the cleaning could be done from above, after lifting and removing the appropriate gundeck gratings..... Nils
  4. Beautiful work Ilhan, I love the techniques you are showing on this build. Very nice painting job, Also great, the aft grating.... in all an amazing build ! Nils
  5. Hi Paul, very interesting scratch build, good work ! I wish you much fun an good success for the progress Nils
  6. Hi Yves, I have a pic here to show the Eagle of Algier with set sails in a quite broad glass casing. I fitted the starboard side with a set of sweeps whilst the portside is equipped with closed oar doors. A ship`s boat with crew is placed at the waterline, heading for shore Nils
  7. Hy Boss, that kit is a very nice choise and you did a good job on the hull so far. I like the glasfibre reinforced hull with the rivet imitations Nils
  8. Good looking progress John, I have a question to the boats,..... are they self made from wood or by resin-casting ? Nils
  9. Great work Bug, congrats, your ship looks fantastic, did you ever plan in sails with the rigging ? Nils
  10. Many thanks Valeriy, for the drawings..... you`re a lucky guy to have such helpful freinds, together with your input, a well working team, well done ! Nils
  11. Super work Valeriy, double-ender lifeboat and a workboat shells. Where did you take the hull shaping and the necessary software from for 3_D making? Do you operate your own 3-D printer ? Nils
  12. I admire your beautiful work Valeriy, you are performing in top notch museum quality (and that all from scratch !! ) Nils
  13. Beautiful work John, I love that reconstruction of your 4 mast barque Nils
  14. Many thanks Valeriy, for your answer...., you did a great job there ! Nils
  15. Very nice work Valeriy, how did you do the railings? are they made from brass wire ? and did you drill thin holes into the deck to press in........, perhaps with a thin glue moisturing? Nils
  16. beautiful work Ivo, congrats for your lovely Model, I trust that you and your granddaughter (what a fine present) are enjoying this all times Nils
