Thank you, I am pretty sure that you would master work with Sculpey very soon and would be able to produce even better results. Best regards, Jan -
Hi, after a month here comes some upgrade on the work on my RC. Mostly I have been working on the stern gallery. I have made substantial changes to it, all of the decorations were remade from Sculpey. The work is still not finished but it is slowly coming to an end. Last picture shows what the stern gallery looked like on the previous version so that you can compare the difference. Have a look and let me know what you think.

Really lovely work on the boat, Vlada! Congratulations! I may get a lot of inspiration when I get to it. Anyway it is going to be in quite far future looking at my time allocation to ship modeling. Best regards and I am sure you will keep up the highest standards on your wonderful model so we can be looking forward for next updates! Jan

Hi all, so here comes some more progress on the ornaments from Sculpey. Regards, Jan

Awesome work, Marsalv! Excellent craftmanship! I would just like to know how you made the "treenails" for the gun carriages. Sorry, I did not get it from the pictures...

Hi Jan, I am using the Firm Grey Sculpey. To guild the baked pieces I am using a regular gold color from Revell and then to get kind of patina effect I paint it with diluted black acrylic color. Thanks also for your nice compliment, I appreciate it! Well, I am hoping that one day in late future I could get my ornaments to look a little more similar to the ones from Doris. Best regards, Jan

Hi all, so here comes some pictures depicting my attempt to create my own decorative strips to replace the ones from kit... I have used walnut strips 1,5 x 4 mm which were then profiled using the technique shown on the pictures. To create the ornaments I prepared a push mold from Sculpey that was baked to get hard and then I used it to push the actual shapes on the strips that was first filled with Sculpey. This whole assembly was baked, painted black and finally the ornaments gilded using toothpick. Cheers!

Hi Janos, I am glad that you like it. I of course remember your build log from previous version of MSW and it is a very impressive build! And your carving skills are just amazing! I don't have much experience with wood carving so I have rather ended up with Sculpey. I may do some easier carvings but those presented on RC are too complex for me to handle using wood. I am going to try to make the figure head also from Sculpey so I wonder how it will go... But still I have so much to do before that. Regards and all the best to your work on RC! Jan

Excellent work on your Royal Caroline on all parts of the model! Your build log is also very inspirative to my own build of RC. Congratulation and I am looking forward to seeing your progress!
