    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

    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 !?!?

    Verdi and Bach are exactly I need holding paintbrush tonight. (and magnifier ...)

    Preliminary final make up starts



    And my company



    As I wrote before, it seems he ( HM Adrian, The Princ of Persia) likes Verdi. Everytime I listened Requiem, he comes to workshop, and get this position

    Strange ...

    David, I was in opera once, twice, and concluded - you can not enjoy and feel music if you watch around on decorations and action in scene. Libreto do not interest me. Only music. Listening and thinking of. Not only opera, but those days it will be Bach and Verdy mixed. I put music on my phone, attach little speaker in workshop, and this is it. I tried with headphones, but wires from my ears have strange passion to collect things from workbench

    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.

    There is a drop of truth in your words David.

    Admiral insists for some of my paintings to be hanged on a walls in our home

    (better paintings than me ...  )










    As youth, I won on some local compettitions playing classic guitar music ( Asturias, Requerdos de la Alhambra, HVLobos prelude, JSBach ...), wrote poetry and novels, ....

    But I realised early that only few can live from art, and I am not that kind of artist and man, have foots hard connected to earth

    And here I am now, missed enginier, missed artist, shipmodeler in trying, happy attorney,I think good husband and father... what to want more ?

    When you make little ring of thin Cu wire 4mm diam. It has strange will to dissapear somewhere on work bench without any reason ... also without idea to come back ... ever
     
    When I was happy to see it traveling to the floor, I just let it go ... I give up of even a try to find it ...
     
    Strange ... as smaller the pieces are, their will to escape is stronger ... when I was making decoration piece under Star of India, I made couple wooden pieces 0,5x0,5x4-5 mm ... and sniffed ... just bye bye
