Hi Max, Good to see you start a build log here.. If you're using a Window, the Photo Gallery can do it.. but I'm not so sure about the quality of the photo after reducing the size.. Just right click on a picture > Open with > Photo Gallery > at the upper left click the Edit, Organize and Share you can even do batch resize there.. -

yea. it's located in the Gulf of Thailand The airport by that time should be still Subang.. the main one is currently KLIA. I've never been to RAF Butterworth (although just around 30min from my house ), but we do have air show annually in Langkawi (I never attended also ) Anyway, there was a real incident in Malaysia Air Force A pilot was about to fly his jet, but the jet wasn't responding.. and when the team checked the jet, it was found that there was no engine in it... ROFLMAO! :D Yea, you are very welcome!! come visit Penang! Penang is famous of its Heritages and foods.. you can ask Hyposphagma (Harry), he loves Penang Laksa very much

Hi David, It's a good start.. good luck on your build

It has been a while after the trip, and a coming church festival kept me busy preparing it since I'm one of the crews... Anyway, here's some updates of my ship. I removed my ratlines which I think the result is still not satisfying, and decided to put on futtock staves first before I redo them. Thanks for the suggestion! Ratlines Removed Added deadeyes first before starting the futtocks. Deadeyes on Crow Nests Then, I started on the futtock staves. It's done by rigging a blacken copper nail to the shrouds. Main Mast Futtock Stave Mizzen Mast Futtock Stave However, I did not continue on the ratlines. Instead, I skipped to finish all the stays and topmast shrouds first. I will continue on the ratlines before I put my yards on. Topmast Shrouds Main Topmast Shrouds Main topmast shrouds with main stay and main staysail, if I'm not mistaken. Mizzen Topmast Shrouds Mizzen topmast shrouds with mizzen stay. Flying Jibstay and Main Topgallant Stay Bowsprit Shrouds Back Stays Lamps on Crow Nests Stays As Viewed from Crow Nest Up till now, basically all the stays and shrouds are done. Next, I will need to put the gaffs on, then only continue back working my ratlines. Starboard Port Current Look C&C are most welcomed!

Happy Independance Day! I'm happy too, because my boss is also working from the US.. So, effort on work on the 4th of July will be just 50% :D Anyway, well done on the bulwark planking!

ZyXuz replied to Gahm's topic in - Kit build logs for subjects built from 1801 - 1850
being busy and didn't have much time on ship modelling, moreover she's just displaying right in front of you is really torturing.. Anyway, she looks great! -
u might need a larger work bench Anyway, it's a good head start.. making sure everything is real straight is just so important hope to see your update tmr
