  1. Looking very smart with the planks on the stem, keel and sternpost. Nice hull planking, looking real snug. Be proud of this model, I know I would be!
  2. Very nice! I love the way that deck planking came up, looks amazing. How are you going to cover the Philips screws on your belaying pin racks? Some sort of filler? It's looking real great.
  3. I have seen clips of this master model maker on you tube. Indeed he is very talented and his work is superb. I would love to own a copy for sure!
  4. I bet the tea would do a nice job, just about as realistic as you can get. It dosnt stain even and goes patchy slightly which I think is realistic.
  5. Interesting little build you have going on. I don't like that kit supplied rope either. I think I'll change it as well. Good job, looks neat.
  6. That's the spirit. Just looking over the log of yours and have to say well done! The bow fillers look great, the planked deck looks great, the whole ship looks great. Take your time and you will be rewarded. Keep up the great work.
  7. Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship! A real gem. I still can't get over how well those rivets on your steel plates turned out. Excellent job.
  8. An absolute brilliant model! So much attention to detail! Love the rivet tool you made out of old clock cogs. Maby I can give that a go myself! Looking forward to part 9 ! Good work.
  9. Very interesting build you have going on here! I love the pipe work for the boilers. And the decks have come up real well. Good job.
  10. I have agreed with the above comment, I always keep my ratlines and shroud lines the same color. Even the lines that run between the deadeyes.
  11. I have just purchased the royal yacht from mamoili. Looking through your build has given me an insight of what is to come. I will not be starting the build for a while as i have already another ship on the que, You done a very nice job and I think your surgeon would love this as a gift! Good work
  12. Obviously my rotary tool takes the cake. Can't say I ever really need any other power tools being a kit builder.
  13. It has turned out well. And looks great. Thanks for the log. It was a great read.
  14. It's hard to believe that you are looking at a model! It really does look like the real thing! Excellent work. You truly DO have a talent for model ships. Keep up the fab work!
  15. Yeah, I wouldent risk it. Keep using that push stick for sure! I know that there are some pretty heavy duty gloves out there but nothing for what you are asking for. Stay safe
  16. I don't think you can get much closer than " realistic water" can you! Might have to have a peep at my local store some. Thanks
  17. I know what it's like, sometimes you can't really see the mistake but in the back of your mind you know it's there! And you have to correct it otherwise you will always draw your attention to it.
  18. Oh my! To be honest, buying a Victory as a first kit was way too much to bite off, let alone chew! But with that said, I say good on him! He gave it a shot and had a go. I know each and every one of us on this site has different skill levels. I'm not a master model shipwright so I'm in no position to judge. But with that said, yes it could of done with a bit more care. Good on him for trying but. Your doing a great job Dan it's coming along well.
  19. Would a vacuum cleaner on low power be helpful? Even a dust buster maby?
  20. You've done a great job on that deck.it looks very sharp and clean.
