  1. Beautiful model. It is hard to believe that it is made of paper/card. Great assembly. Yves
  2. It is important to give them some good stuff. They are so cute..... By the way, the Mustang is great too, but no so cute 🙂 Yves
  3. Is this a re-boxing of the former kit? It looks identical to the old kit. Yves
  4. Fantastic work. I am following with a lot of interest. Can't wait to see pictures of the sub diving.... Yves
  5. BE, I love your approach. This is something I have been struggling with, on my Bellona, since CAF Model does not provide much info. The Anatomy of the Ship has a little bit more details, but these anchors are so massive, they are really delicate to place on the bow, in a realistic way. Yves
  6. Beautiful work Chuck. It is such a pleasure to vicariously build this model through your build log. I love all the astute solutions that you find to put together this incredible Build. It must take a lot of your wake-up time just thinking how everything is going to fit together. Finally, that use of the White Cedar wood is something unique in the models building world, and will probably remain your signature. Yves
  7. Alright, now you need to find a few chickens in 1/12 scale and some straw to finalize your barn diorama. I can see them laying eggs on the seats. Yves
  8. I like the interior with the room for the crew in the rear, and the luggage/freight compartment in the front. You can tell that this was better designed than modern airliners which are solely equipped for greed and maximum profit. Yves
  9. Mark, That is a fantastic study, analysis and attempt at re-creating what could have been the stern of Bellona. Personally, I like the second and more modern interpretation and that is probably because it is what is provided with the CAF Model kit, that I recently (almost) completed. I hope you do not mind the picture below: However, I have to say that I really like your drawing as it combines elements of both interpretations and may result in a fantastic and beautiful stern. And nobody will ever be able to contradict what you did, as we simply don't know. Yves
  10. I am wondering what was stored exactly in these bench lockers? They probably were only accessible by officers. Yves
  11. This is superb work and it has this special and unmistakable signature of RGL masterpieces. Yves
