Hi Hennie,

That is great news, congratulations.

May I advise you to open your buildlog now  That way everyone can place their response at your buildlog instead of here.

Regards,

Anja

There she is, the buildlog of the Smit Rotterdam 

Good luck with your build Terry, and have fun.

I found myself a set in the front row.  

Regards,

Anja

Hello Terry,

You don't add the word 'static' in the log title.  The only models that aren't static are RC models.

If you decide to do RC, you add the word 'Radio' in the log title.

For example:

Smit Rotterdam by FrozenRabbit471 - Billing Boats or

Smit Rotterdam by FrozenRabbit471 - Billing Boats - RADIO

Regards,

Anja

Hello Terry,

I agree with Don, a buildlog would be great.

This topic explains how to start and name your buildlog: : http://modelshipworld.com/index.php?/topic/53-before-you-post-your-build-log-please-read-this-starting-and-naming-your-build-log/

Hello dear Doris,

What a pleasure it is to welcome you back.  I missed you and your beautiful work.

Good luck with your new adventure, but knowing you, she will turn out great.

Hello all,

For the newcomers, a warm welcome to my buildlog.

Thank you for stopping by and the compliments.  It is appreciated.

@ Popeye,

Yes Denis, I know you use the archive pen as well. I have that idea from you and it works great.  Thanks for the tip.

@ Ulises

If you can get the Lego blocks, they will be a great help for little money.

It is again high time for an update.  She is by far not seaworthy, but this is how she is right now.

Work done:

- Deck caulking (a bundle of 10 planks at a time)

- Reinforcing pieces glued onto the last frame

- Gun carriages painted (red Ochre from Admiralty paints)) and put a layer of surface primer on the canons (Negro black from Vallejo)

- Interior quarter deck bulwarks, forecastle bulwarks and interior hold bulwarks painted (red Ochre from Admiralty paints)

- Cut out parts the crossbeams that remain exposed over the holds

To be continued .....

Thank you all for watching and enjoy.

Regards, 

Anja

Hi Eddie,

Thanks for stopping by and the compliment.

I have little time for the build right now, so progress is very slow. 

Will show an update this weekend.

Anja
