NenadM got a reaction from mtaylor in Cutty Sark by NenadM
Ten days out from shipyard, it is time to continue ...
Not jet, it seems .... Main working light from shipyard is still in Hothead's room where Admiral spread her artistic ideas on walls (my job was to prepare, line up, and level wall surfaces, her is the rest) ... so there is opportunity to watch old Pink Floyd concerts on Youtube, or "Hannibal Lecter", or something, hardly waiting to come back to painting hull. Must bye one 200W bulb for shipyard
Bob, I am carefully and regulary with inpatience following all your three builds, collecting ideas and inspiration, admiring to your precise work

Hair Clippings (yes, Human Hair)
For those wondering just what the above dialogue was all about:
I had made some coconuts from Sculpey to be included as decorative detail on my Bounty Launch build ...
... but, the husked coconuts just seemed to be too smooth and shiny.
... and so I came upon the idea to finely chop up a handful of hair (collected from the floor of my neighbourhood barber). The baked, plaster coconuts were coated with PVA glue, and then rolled around in a bowl of the hair-clippings.
Once the glue had dried, I cleaned off any excess follicles. To me, the result looks a lot more realistic.
(Sorry it took me so long, Nenad)
Footnote: Never try to argue with a lawyer ... you cannot possibly hope to win!!

Thank you Sailor. I'm still here, but this days I had not time for Her ... room painting, traveling to see Hothead, fight with seek cat and vet, some meetings, help some friends, usual family stuff, and when evening comes I am or tired or doing something else. I hope next week will come in regular way
Attorney strike still lasts, last money almost disappear ... Alternative resources slowly get in focus ...

With "Aida" next 20 cm of make up in long two hours. Makeup goes well, white rail is straight, also line where white and black color meet. Two rounded "brown" rails will get their final look when I finish inside bulwarks with deadeye and nailholders and main rail, and ... because all has Teak "natural" color
Beast is still in same position listening Verdi
And Admiral catched me to repaint Hotheads room

Bob, for now, CS has her wall shelf, no way for cat to go there. One day time will come for Her Majesty to grow ( bowsprit and masts) and then shelf will be small. Considering Hothead is in Novi Sad for next 3-5 years, I am thinking about to move my build from heat-room to attic in his former music studio - cat do not go to attic in any way, particularly to this "room" in attic. Or just to capture his room and lock the door. Maybe in meantime Princess find job and leave (with Her cat). Another free room.
Who knows. A lot of time to that stage.
No working this days, but painting is present. Not artistic... Admiral catches me to repaint and rearrange Hothead's room ... will She ever be peaceful, calm and without ideas which include me?

And, Bob, there is no magic. Everybody can do this. You need ONLY four things:
1. precise and steady hand
2. good eyes or magnifier
3. the thinnest paintbrush you can find
4. patience.

Just like that, David. Little madness here and there. When I was starting with every new painting, I do not know exactly what I do. Just let paintbrush working until I got some idea about picture I paint. All tell me I am insane ....
Who care ... I spent a good time making my art, and that is only important. If painting dropped out well, and somebody liked it, ok. If not, also ok.
