  1. Nice work Ulises; that patina looks great and well suited to this style of model. cheers Pat
  2. Great outcome Mark, patience and determination ...I think you have earned an extra tot today cheers Pat
  3. Outstanding Druxey - great detail at that scale. cheers Pat
  4. Oops, sorry mate just checked myself, it has disappeared. i will get it re-instated. I'll send you a PM in the meantime cheers Pat
  5. Chris, there is an article in the database that should help you a bit. cheers Pat
  6. She looks great Ron, end is in sight for you now cheers Pat
  7. It's just that you are being honest and posting your 'pick-ups' - many others don't but you can bet we all make them cheers Pat
  8. Chris I used liquid gloss (two part) which you can get at Spotlight (i think they still have it). Are you doing the central one as a 'false window'? - http://modelshipworld.com/index.php/topic/400-hmb-endeavour-by-banyan-al-160-circa-1768/?p=4039 cheers Pat
  9. Great work Keith, coming along very nicely. Doing that small scale decoration must be giving you a headache or two huh? cheers Pat
  10. Thanks Bob, happy with their use, just did not recognise it at first I'll have a look at that video as paul has some interesting stuff. cheers Pat
  11. An update, recently went to AFT (post 4) only to find that they had shut down - yet another timber source gone cheers Pat
  12. Thanks Rick and Gaetan - will need to find one cheers Pat
  13. Great recovery Ulises, remember the alcohol is for medicinal purposes ..... cheers Pat
  14. Ah, thats the beastie - many thanks Gaetan. My source is looking around his stuff to see if the block is there. cheers Pat
  15. Oh the joys of modelling Ulises - Good luck with the fix, seems you have a solution inmind. cheers Pat
  16. Exceptional, the model looks magnificent and very much enhanced with the very beautifully carved figurehead Igor. cheers Pat
  17. Ahhh! that makes sense, thanks Arthur. cheers Pat
  18. Hi Ben, you'll have to start feeding that passenger soon, they're nothing but a bag of boners Great to see you've sorted the electrics. A question though. i don't recall if this will be a floating/working model. If so, how will you get the oars to lift out of the water on the forward stroke so that it doesn't counteract the after stroke (propelling forward)? If it is a working static, won't be an issue. I am sure you have some clever system worked out with Arthur. cheers Pat
  19. looking very good there Russ; those sails have some very fiddly detail - must have been an 'interesting' task cheers Pat
  20. Beautiful work Druxey, the real hint of your resolve for top quality was highlighted in an earlier post about the tholes where you made almost three times as many as you needed so that you could select only the best. This discipline, and the lesson for us mere apprentices, is only reinforced with the redo rather than trim to size of the frieze. cheers Pat
  21. A fortune maybe Mark, but then how would you learn to be a 'master' of your trade/craft The rudder looks great and appears to sit hang nicely against the stern post cheers Pat
  22. Nice to see you started Alan; this should be a great model (if you survive the scares ) cheers Pat
  23. Looking really trim John; hope the health is back to normal for you soonest. Best wishes Pat
  24. Some really great progress. That is a very interesting technique you are employing with the perspex and it was great to see it live at our last meeting. cheers Pat
