  1. Count me in, I really liked your work in the past , I am going to start my Pegasus soon, I figure 5 to 7 years for it look at the fun we are going to have ship mates for ever lol
  2. WELCOME, this is the place to be, all you ever need is here. Glad you joined our crew
  3. Well, first planking is finished, as well as the decks. In my haste to get her done, I forgot to cut my decking planks to size, I used a 80 cm , 40 cm butt shift pattern . So I just penciled in the joints and nail holes on the poop deck. It will do lol. It is a small ship, so by the time you get all the deck furniture on, there's little deck left to see. I noticiced that on my Pinta. The plans said start mid ship with the planks, so that's what I did. I put on the first couple of bands then started at the keel and worked my way up. Fitting the last plank in with very little problems.. so I move on to the decks So this is how she sits now, ready for final planking, and the inside planks and cap rails. All in good time. We have to take a week off to attend the first Mate mother's celebration of life in the next province over lol. I will be very anxious to get back 🙃 . But thanks to the internet I won't miss a thing except my ship yard lol . Later, all my friends.
  4. Nicely done, you can really put some nice details into your models , amazing work.
  5. Hello, today marks two years that I have been learning how to build models. I join MSW two years ago and I think I have not missed to many days scene then lol. I have been having the time of my life, meeting people, getting to know some as well. I was going to start my Pegasus, but wanted to finish my Columbus ships. As LA Nina will be my next build So I open the box last night and wanted to post, but dew to technical issues 🙃 lol I went to work. The keel and the bulk head came together nicely. So I move on up to the upper deck, and planked that as well So Iam about to start planking. But FIRST I will give Chucks video one more go lol. Glad to be part of this wonderful organization. Both the NRG and MSW have become important to me, my recent panic attack 🙃 🙂 because I couldn't log on kinda made that a little more clear. So to everyone who has put up a like or a laugh thankyou so much. It will be hard for me to control myself not to rush this because I will be doing the Pegasus right after the Nina. I do have a Viking Long Boat to do as well but I thought I save that for when I get boared with the Pegasus lol. Now on we go, video, planking lol Bob M.
