Hi Marsalv,
I haven't been following your or actually any build log recently but I have to say just WOW!!! Simply amazing!!! I have almost fell of the chair watching it!
Great, great work!!! This is going to be another beauty built by your hands!
Unfortunately my work on ship modeling is not on hold as my current hobby is our little daughter so not sure when I will have time to get back to it. But the time will come (hopefully ).
Best regards,
Jan

This is just an incredible masterpiece! Congratulations Vlada!
Your build brought me a lot of inspiration and I have learned a lot from it, so again thank you very much! Unfortunately I couldn't make it to the Championship during the weekend but I believe you must have gained the highest award!
Great work!

Dear visitors of this build,
last days I have been working on several things. One of them are the doors and the deck cover (not sure what is the right term...) and also the handrails.
There is also a picture of ornaments on the bow. There will be still some more decorations needed...
Thanks for watching!

Hi,
after about 4 moths of silence there is an update of my build log of the RC.
I had quite a lot of changes in my personal life - wedding, flat moving,.. so not much time was left for ship modeling. I needed also to set up a workbench for the modeling work. Now I am mostly done. So hopefully updates to the build will come on regular basis.
So what has changed on the build during the long period? Just updates to the bow - including production of the ship figurehead... Again from Sculpey. Here are just a few pictures. I will try to make some more soon and post them.
Best regards,
Jan

Little update on the ship, haven't had much free time for modelling...
The ornamentation on the left side of the ship is mostly done. Also I have done the decorative "sprouts" on both ship sides.
Work on the beakheads also started. I was thinking for a long time how to build them as I see this as quite a challenging work. Finally decided to use the brass rails that came with the kit which were bent and then I applied Sculpey. After baking it was sanded and then repeated this process several times.
They will be blackened and also I will create and put the ornaments there...
Best regards,
Jan

Hi Doris,
compliment from you about sculpting is a tremendous honour to me! Thank you I do appreciate that a lot, although I can't compare my work to your superb model of Royal Caroline!
Best regards,

Dear visitors of my build,
here comes another update on the Sculpey ornamentation work on the RC.
I have mostly finished the starboard and I have recently moved to the port.
I have not been completely happy with the plain gold color which made the ornaments look quite flat so I have made an attempt to improve the look. So I have used black color to make them more plastic and to get some patina effect. It still needs some improvements but I think it will hopefully be better...
Let me know your thoughts...
Thanks,

Hi Marsalv,
what an awesome work on your model!!! Every single little detail came to perfection! You can be really proud of it, the amount of hours on the model were definitely well spent!
So much inspiration in this build log, when (if) I get back to ship modelling...
Huge congratulations!
Jan
