    Jerry got a reaction from riverboat in H.M.S. BOUNTY by Jerry's Admiral - FINISHED - Amati - Scale 1:60   
    Hello everyone..
    Charlene is away at school earning money so she can support me in the way that i'm acustomed.  So, being home alone I decided to a little more work on the Bounty whose progress is pictured here with a few more photos.  We made the midship and bow bits and belaying pin racks and also finished installing the bowsprit bits.  Charlene gets the next crack at the model over the weekend and hopefully will get a little more completed.  So there are pics showing where we are at.present.

    Hello Everybody...
     
    A little more progress on Charlene's Bounty.  For the past couple of days we have been preparing 2mm blocks and eye-rings in order to mount the cannons and to rig them to the deck of the ship.  Charlene is learning how to handle blocks of this size and seems to grasp the way to thread them in order to attach them to various parts of the rigging.  In this case, as mentioned above, the rigging of the cannons.  I believe this will be the hardest part of the building of this model since everything is extra tiny and the areas to work in is very congested.  The results of our first three or four days follows in pictures.  The deck has become quite messy as you can see but we will clean this up in the future.  We hope everyone has had a wonderful holiday and will enjoy a healthy and prosperous New year.

    Hi Everyone..
    Well I had a few hours today and managed to get some work done. Jerry did a lot before me the past several days and so all i could manage was beginning the bow railings and knees.  I'm not happy with the blue stripe paint job and will attempt to make it much better a litle later on.  Jerry asked me to mention that there was a lit kit bashing done when it came to some of the metal parts sincce the originals didn;t fit well.  He made some wooden substitutes using the scroll saw and all came out pretty well.  Here are some pictures that will bring our mutual project up to date.
