    Coming back again. Sorry for not writing but the work duties were so tough! I'm asking you to help me solve out a riddle. I have been searching for the sketches in my books (zu Mondfeld and Lennarth Pettersen) but I still have no clue what to do with it. Look at the ropes 62. They are doubled ?????? why?. Where or even HOW to attach them to the model (belaying pin). Any guesses? PLEASE help me.

    Here is the result of yesterday's painting. I used a white paint on the quarter badge. In the second photo as a comparison to the main part. There's one piece left but I must drill the holes out. Now I'm thinking of the "glass" and window frames (they will be made of a white sticker. Photos soon

    Frank, I wish I had built Supply. It wasn't me... sorry... But I will do my best to reach this level of accuracy Cheers, Paweł

    Thanks Matti and Alistair for your comments. Matti, the modifications are: drilling out the metal cast and painting them. I want to put some transparent plastic to imitate the glass. This scale (1:85) is really tricky. The parts are rathersmall comparing them to my Santa Maria (1:50). Soon there will be more photos. Thanks for commenting Paweł

    Neatly done. I like the planking...

    A small upgrade. It's not finished yet. I'm going to add a white paint and yellow at the bottom.

    Getting ready for the ratlines... I think, I didn't exaggerated with the spaces between them. In normal scale it would be every 0.5m

    Delayed birthday wishes Matti! Let your dreams come true

    Interesting start. It's good to measure something many times before attaching hurriedly... Keep going, Paweł

    Cute details. And so the colours. They all give a superb outlook. Cheers, Paweł

    Thanks Marktime for your opinion. I'm glad you like it. Now they look much "older". The same with ratlines. The colour changes the whole outlook:) Just like soaking the sails in the coffee or tea Cheers, Paweł

    Matti, in fact, Sigmundus III Waza originated from Sweden. He was using the title of the Swedish King while ruling in Poland. His son Władysław IV was also a king of Poland and his step-brother Joannes Casimirus was the last Wasa on a Poland's throne. They were all using the title of the Swedish and Polish king. Therefore there were a war between Poland and Sweden. The most recognizable battle was the battle of Oliwa. There were some ships like: Yellow Lion, Aquarius, Water Maiden Take a look here http://www.bojer.pl/modele_statkow_zestawy Cheers, Paweł

    Very nice. I can't wait to see more pics of the boat

    Alistair, WackoWulf, Matti, thank you for your opinions. I have AoTS book so it will be helpful to get the details. I'm rebuilding the quarter badges too. The holes for windows are now drilled out. I will paint them and put a sort of transpatrent plastic (PET) to imitate glass. My plan is to use some led lights that's why my work is going to last long I will consider coppering the hull (it'll be my first time) so if you have any hints and tips - don't hesitate to write to me Thanks a lot, Paweł

    The stern looks realistic in fact. I'm waiting for more photos. The sculptures are convincing

    Blue Ensign and Matti thanks for your support. I didn't know she ws coppered twice. According to the treenails - they were about 4-5cm in 1:1 scale so I'm cosidering 0.6mm. But I would like to confirm my thoughts with more experienced users of this forum. I won't stop asking many questions Thank YOU in advance, Paweł
