  4. Doris, your work is candy for eyes and Soul and causes admiration pure. One sits back in a comfortable chair and breaths in the pics whilst the atmosphere provided by the art, arrangement, figures, furniture, etc. creates the wish in ones mind to take walk on board, in a Long back laying century. Nils

  11. Excellant work Jan ! thanks for sharing your build-log, shall be looking out for more to come Nils
  12. Beautifull Model Richard, I like these classic lines so much that I decided many years ago to scratchbuild the Endeavor and make her raedy for RC control. So into the lowest keelportion was integrated appr. 3KG lead (non removeable)as deadweight. The model was very Long and although it was a lightweight hull contruction, Balsa diagonal stripes on ply Frames, and coated with glass rowing Cloth and sealed with epoxy Raison it was very heavy because of the lead. Halfway completed and with lateral-testing in water, I found it would take even more lead to compensate and withstand the windpressure on the high mast ans sail. The model was too heavy now to have fun in handling the whole Thing, so it went into the dark Basement and out of the mind. After moving homes for 2 or 3 times I decided to sell the hull, and so someone else may complete it or not. As you are building a stand model, that sure should have been my decision as well in the beginning. Wish you very much pleasure in finalizing your wonderfull model, and shall follow your further build with pleasure Nils
  13. Good work Richard ! looking at the fine and neat structural planking, why are you aiming for a second planking at all? I like the lines of your Brigg Mercury The kit seems to be a good choise, what one can see so far cheers Nils

  16. Is coming on very nicely Puckotred, Looks like the kit provides good Fitting lasered parts Are you intending to do an (RC) float- or a stand model? Nils
  17. Hi Puckotred till now I was not Aware that there is a Bohuslän kit (and even in 1:45 !!)on the market again, thanks for sharing the News, and hopefully for your build-log to start with the keellaying soon. Shall Keep tuned .... Long time ago I built Buhuslän from the former Billing Boats kit in 1:50 scale, which disappeared many years ago from the market. If you are interested you can see my finished kit Model in the Gallery. Cheers Nils

  24. Hi Michael, your rigging and all the Fitting out and the choise of materials and their dimensions provide the confedence that this cutter could be magnified to actual size and sailed in a good breeze with filled red gaff sails and humming stays..... Beautifull build Michael I like it Nils
