  1. That's real fun Mic. Please bear in mind that a photo shows more than you normally can see, so donot bother about that too much. Regards, John
  2. Thanks Mick, appreciated. Still a lot of detail on the King to do, I love it. Regards, John
  3. Wayne and Geoffrey - thanks very much. Jim - thanks, if I can get hold of figures in the right scale and appropriate era I certainly will do so. Adrieke - thanks, you can now enjoy the same. Dragzz - suppose you will start a build log at the time. Anja, Sjors and Wim, thanks very much. Come sit down at the benches and have a piece of cake and some coffee (sorry tables are not provided). Regards, John
  4. After woodfilling and sanding she will look great. Just in time you note that the cheap adhesive will ruin your planking, a blessing in disguise Regards, John
  5. Really nice Buck. Suppose you can now play guitar as well on the whale boat . If i need among particals I will recall to visit not only the hobby store but pay attention to the music store as well. Regards, John
  6. Congratulations Adrieke, it's curved stairs victory day. Should be an official remembrance day Up to the fun part. Regards John
  7. Right Mick, painting and the drying time is always time consuming and it make no differences whether you paint tiny things or enormous areas, the drying time is the same . In my experience modeling is a course in having patience, you are doing fine. Regards, John
  8. The wheelhouse looks nice Wim. After planking or painting it makes anyway no difference which material you use. Regards, John
  9. Not a spectacular progress but just fun, having the benches in place. Relaxation time for the passengers. Regards, John
  10. Brian, it gives me great pleasure that my built log appears to be helpful. That's what it is for. Regards, John
  11. Buck, just read your log with great pleasure and must say that you made a wonderful built with such nice details. The modifications you made are really added value to the built. Perfect job. Regards, John
  12. Hi Buck, Thanks for looking in and the compliment which is highly appreciated. Regards, John
  13. It is amazing how right you can copy such component. Well done. Regards, John
  14. Thanks Sjors, luckily still a lot of outstanding details to do with much painting which is always a lengthy job, so a think I need another two or three months. Next build ? I have the constructo steamlaunch Louise on the shelf. Regards, John
  15. Garward, Adrieke, Dave and Ferit - thanks for the compliments, highly appreciated. Regards, John
  16. Your next profession is watchmaker I presume. You lost a couple of tiny pieces ? I am afraid I should loose the complete ship. Regards, John
  17. What a nice detail. Unbelieveable that dinner is cooked this way for over 400 men (as you told for the oars only 413 men needed) and they were lucky of their dinner was not washed away. Regards, John
  18. Thanks Wim, thanks Jim. Thanks Jarero, I think the painted ones are more authentic. Somewhere I read the King of the Mississippi by Artesania is the most beautiful never existed paddle steamer. I like the look of it. Regards, John
  19. Very nice details Stelios. Didnot realise you were reconstructing your built log. Thought, wow this guy is going so fast for someone saying "I donot rush" Regards, John
