  1. Really interesting solutions. That's a very consequent way, to build your model. Well done.
  2. Does exist a description how do you paint the baseboard? Or can you make a small how to? I like it very much.
  3. Nice idea, but in a little bit bigger scale. I think 1/32 would be nice
  4. Mark. I think the L'Orient is a nice but really huge model also in a smaller scale. Don't blow the model if shes to big , as Nelson did in Aboukir. I like the Roebuk. Until I got the drawings from Alex Anson I thought a longer time of building her in the future.
  5. Druxey, can you please make a foto with a penny or cent, that we can see how small your model is? It's absolut fantastic
  6. Very nice work, Paul. It's allways fun to have a look in your log and follow your progress.
  7. Dan, as allways, very clean and crisp work. I like your idea with the cut outs and think that I will copy this, if I build a section.
  8. Your model is half the scale than my sloop, but I think it will be nearly the same size. I wish you a good start in your shipyard.
  9. Thanks Hakan. After the build of the half model I planned the next steps. ... but I made a careless mistake during shapeing the stem. In the moment I fix it and than I hope to continue the log
  10. Really wonderful, Druxey. In 100 years or so (and than I am very very old) I hope that I can also build my models so good.
  11. Das, as allways fantastic workmanship and a very interesting view into the ship.
  12. Tom, I have the drawings from Alex for the Sphynx and since this week for the Anson. A few years agos before I start my Swan class sloop I thought a longer time to build HMS Sphyx as POF model after Alex drawings, At that time I don't have enough knowledge to reconstruct the frames. I don't know the original drawings so I don't know where he got the information for the swivel gun mounts on his drawing. I don't found information about installed swivel guns in Winfield, but I think that she had them until 1794. At this time the ship got carronades.
  13. In my opinion they are the best source together with the original drawingfor your ship to build a model of this class
  14. Tom, do you know the fantastic drawings of Alexander for the Sphynx?
  15. Looks wonderful, Albert, very precise work.
  16. It's not model building, it's an art. Every step so clean and crisp. There I have a lot to learn
  17. This looks really interesting. I've the same kit in my stock and like to change the timber. I'll follow with great interest.
