Sherry and Steve....... You are making fun of me @ Sherry, I mean that I want such balcony at my house in human standarts ! I want to relax with a beer and the model in front of me ( when it will be sunny and nice warm weather ) . @ Steve, I ask for a contract from Sherry but she can only make this at scale 1:96.... I think that's a little to small. But Sherry, it is still an amazing job what you are doing !

Hi Kamil, Looks good ! I measured mine and they are sticking out 18 mm. Also they are level with the railing . Maybe this helps you.

Thanks Sam, Frank and Wayne, @ Wayne, shall I re-name the build into Fonzie Now we have the Aggy and the Fonzie.... @ Mobbsie, I have take another look to the drawings and they are saying that the first shroud ( the one close to the main mast ) has NO ratlines. The second one has every 10 row a ratline.... Just what you are saying before....maybe because she is Spanish ???? Or I can put a Dutch flag on it

Hi Sherry, I was not that busy. An hour here of there and that's it ! Work is in the way...... But I'm happy that you like it @ Lawrence, Thank you also. I know you will do a better job with those ropes then I do. The rope from OcCre is just terrible. But to late to change it. I hope that the rope for the Aggy is much better otherwise I will change that.

There is nothing wrong with it Popeye, Give your self a little bit more credit from what you have done !
-
Thanks all ! Also for the likes... @ Bob, I'm not at your level yet but I love what I'm doing at the moment @ Popeye, You give the San Ildefonso also a nick name ??? The Fonz Happy days are here again ! @ Grant, Thank you It only cost me 2 weeks to do that... But now I'm 10 day of from work so next week I can do a lot @ Mobbsie, Thank you also and you are right. The last one has a ratline on every 10 row. When I start to make those little animals I will keep that in mind ! @ Augie, It's crowd at the top.......

Holy smokes ( or something like that ) That looks wonderful ! If I need a balcony at my house, I want that one !!!! Outstanding work Sherry.....

Here I'am again with something that I have done. The lower shrouds are on ..... Still turning deadeyes but ok, I think they are straight now. The first shroud is totally served and I have the deadeyes make a little higher then the other ones. So you will see it better that it is a shroud without ratlines. I don't know the name of it so maybe someone can tell me that ? I also make the futtock stave. That's a job I really want that left behind but then it's not correct ( I think ). After a few words who are not te be translated, there on. It don't deserve maybe a beauty price but I keep it this way. Next thing to do are the little shrouds that goes from the top deadeye to the end of the serving and then.....ratlines !

Hi Kamil, I have take a look at my Corsair what about the stern and I found out that there is another plank on it. Just on the demarcation of the white wood and the hull. You need to find a piece of wood with the size, 2x2 mm ( dark wood ) That give you the opportunity to get that straight line. For the rest it looks perfect :-)
-
That is really nice Mike ! Great job on the letters !!!!!!
-
Hi Kamil, Sorry for the late replay but here we go. The spots on the hull are not that bad. You tell it otherwise I don't see it. Then the stern, You can place a plank on it with a half rounding. But first draw a line with a pencil so it is straight. I have to take a look for you but I think I have such plank. Otherwise sand it straight. Not to far or you have no plank left. The timber board on the bow is the same that I've got. I have to shape it also. But the last picture, the left side looks great. The colour is no different as what you have. Only I paint the edges black. When you want it darker you can use varnish. For myself have used yacht varnish. It is shiny but darker. When you don't like the shiny thing you can always doing a last layer with a matt varnish. Hope this will help you. It looks good !
-
Wow,wow and wow again Ulises !!!! One remark....you have to CLEAN up your bench !!!!!!!! Maybe a tip. When you make pictures, take the model to a place where is nothing around it. Now the eyes went somewhere else then the model. It looks to busy. When you have only the model on the picture, you will SEE the model. It gives more right to your work then.
-
The master at work ! Great work Bob.
-
It looks interesting with what you are doing Mark ! But what are you doing ??? I see plans....I see a machine ....I see wood.... ok. I've got it !!!....You have started ! Yes !!
-
Thanks for the explanation Nigel. Now I know what you are doing and what you mean. I place all over MSW a popcorn machine so maybe Mark was somewhere else and take a bag with him He also have make a few sign with " RESERVE " on it. So his chair will be his !
-
Amazing good job Adam ! You must be proud now !!!!!
-
Plenty solutions Wayne. With your skills you can fix the keel !!!!! Sherry, can you please give me some popcorn ? This is gonna be a long sit
-
Nigel, Nice clamps I try to follow what you are doing but for me it's gonna be difficult ! My reading English is not that good so I will see what you are doing on the way. Maybe when I aks something and you have told that before sorry for that. I understand that those deck beams has to be shorted ? You replace them from the kit .
-
Hi Kamil, Great job on the hull !!!! Lesson well learned ! The only thing I want to say is, try to get the planking at the stern at the end in a straight line. Now it looks unfinished.
-
That looks old fashion good Bob ! And it is just what Rusty is saying,You and 10.000 members of MSW is knowing that it is there . But is that not with the whole build when it is finished? A lot of stuff you don't see it but it is there. That's why we are taking pictures. When someone is seeing the model for the first time, you can show them the pictures to see what they don't see at the model at that moment. And the comment you've got then is WOW !!!!!!
