  1. For me, ship modeling is a real pleasure, not only when you finish something, but also throughout the construction process. I love the time I spend in my workshop and I don't pay attention to the time it will take to finish a model, nor to the amount of work involved. It happens to me that when I finish a model I feel a certain sensation of sadness because I will no longer be able to continue enjoying it.
  2. Hello, good morning. In many classic carpentry jobs, frames or molds have always been used that are later covered with wood. They help to achieve symmetrical curves and at the same time provide a strong and reliable structure that you can ride without fear of everything breaking. I made this particular mold with the original plans of the ship, from which the thickness of the ribs was discounted. In the end, and when the entire exterior of the hull is finished, it is removed in pieces, leaving a very strong structure. It's another way to build a hull for a bower model.
  3. It is a real pleasure to see the photographs of your work. I love your aesthetic criteria.
  4. Thank you very much, Giampiero. I think that trying to age things, on many occasions, spoils them. We all know that those hinges actually looked very different but what we are doing is a model in which finesse, delicacy and cleanliness are very important elements. I like them a lot and that is how they will stay. Once again, thanks Giampiero.
