  1. No 4. made today, and it is final solution Jus have no nerve to experiment more. If I have, I could make "Star Of India" until the end of my lifetime
  2. FOLDER MECHANISM part 4 Star On second and thirs from left, blue ring is MADE of telephony cooper wire
  3. First attempt to give Her identification I gave up from idea to make letters, they are so small, as my skill, so, get paintbrush in hands ( the thinest I have) and practice. When working, I used only "tags" of acrylic, having no idea how much fast it dry on such a miniature paint job. Painting this little piece lasts almost two hours !?!?
  4. Which of this three? 1, 2, or 3 ? Or to try more ? Third attempt - base is made of mixture alabaster+wood glue+gold acrylic Carves are mor visible on wood base, but with this mixture, base is thiner
  5. Hello Bob I think your technical education helps a lot reading those, for me, un-readable plans. On your pictures I see only bunch od messed lines. How do you even picked up lines of ribs? Magic? Great chalenge, and it seem you successfully walk through this forest
  6. Experiments started : India star, first and second attempt: And second on left Base is from wood, blue detail from telephony wire, star itself is from folder metal strip ... 9mm outside diameter Still not satisfied with star
  7. Today visitor ... Appeared feom nowhere with strong decision to move in my home But, no And fight with Princese about adopting I win
  8. I like it vrey much. You forced me to try something simillar
  9. Thank you Piet, that is exactly a plan. But before that, it seems that rear ornament is next And I still do not how Obviosly, another "playing time" is in front of me Another side finished. With this camera I can not show whole side in clear picture, and here is ilustration Waterpost, sheaves, eye bolt and scooper all in neighbourhood So, let's play with ornament
  10. Strenghting ... what a familiar word ... Overstrenghting ? ... too Very nice work, Denis Live turorrial in episodes And seasons Nenad
  11. Thank you Denis for supporting words Attorney strike still lasts ... government and all media just ignore fact that no one court in Serbia is wotrking last three months ????? That government declare europian way of Serbia. On such a way, I do not think so. This is direct one way street to dark middle ages. Is there any brain in heads ??? Ok, go forward with something more interesting ( not little Awwww ) All outside content on Her right bulwark (except boomkins with chain) mounted [a [attarchment=194826:IMG_20141118_202941.jpg] As I wrote earlier, there is difference in position of bolts, scuppers, sheaves in C-plans, present stage and earlier stage before fire, and this situation takes a lot of time to analyze plan, pictures etc etc to try to put everything on place. Considering diferrence, I decided to make mix . Another tought - outside stairways. It would be very nice detail and challenge, but their position enters more confusing between content of little fittings around them. And next - I plan to spread ALL of Her sails, and in that case I think stairways could not be shown. As I know, no one ship spread sails with lowered stairways. Does anybody know where was a place to put of Her stairways durinf sailing? So, my friends, my head after searching positions and identifying all this little beasts, had over 2m in diameter, and if anybody notice that I miss some little part, please let me know My decision to put a final paint layer after this stage was good one. Drilling this little holes is pretty dirty, and all putty under black color come out from holes. Tomorrow next side, and then a lot of thinking about next step: fore and aft ornaments, bowsprit, boomkins, or ....
  12. Oh boy, what a build !!! Microscopic approach ... no words ... no breath ... Huh Inspiration to try impossible Btw dont worry about misspelling I used "bear" instead "beer" and you can imagine meaning of my posts ....
  13. Thx Mark. And Bob. Anyhow, there will not be CS 2.0 I hope
  14. Thank you for nice word, but my mess is well documented here. It is deep digged in log, but just remember deep surgery on fore and aft deck, then on main deck, then on stern .... something to be shamed, and to notice me what will happen if I forgot to use gray mass in my head
  15. Thank you, Bob. That is only way I see to mask mess I made ( twisted main deck, kell line not in line, too thick bulwarks etc etc etc That is strategy I learned in my job: when you are in weak position, make some fogg, light effects, and overload situation with crowd of issues without any point but which looks as they have some point, all for turning attention from your weakness And after that, arise something meaningfull to turn your oponent from balance ... But Judges are not fools, and followers of this log also are not fools. There is something in playing around, testing and upgrading own skills, and preparing yourself to really tricky part (metal fittings on masts and yards) BTW, when I was playing with my first boomkin, I remembered myself how rigging is fragille and sensitive work, and was a bit scarry ...
