  1. Hi Colin, To help out a bit... at the top of this sub-forum (https://modelshipworld.com/forum/134-kit-build-logs-for-subjects-built-from-1851-1900/_) are some pinned topic on starting and naming your log.
  2. Try contacting them directly. Others have done it and parts have been shipped. https://artesanialatina.net/en/
  3. The closet I got to these beasts was the television. <sigh> Count me in as well as the popcorn machine.
  4. Welcome to MSW, MCB. As for a build log, I'd say go for it. We are seeing several builds of unusual watercraft in the scratch area.
  5. That's true, Lou. I need more coffee.
  6. To make your own line, you need a rope walk. Use the key words "rope walk" and separate search for "ropewalk". You'll get quite few hits for everything from a simple yet very useful one from Chuck (Syren Model Company) all the way up to some powered types.
  7. These might help you, Charlie.... https://modelshipworld.com/forum/98-planking-downloads-and-tutorials-and-videos/ I'd read through them all and then pick one. The difference in these is the methods and details of how to do it.
  8. Welcome to MSW. Could you edit your post and use a .jpg image for your photos? Not many of us have an app/program that can display a heic image. Also you might consider doing an introduction here: https://modelshipworld.com/forum/3-new-member-introductions/
  9. The only thing I see with suggestions here is maybe painting them all black. The goal of a smuggler would be to look normal to any revenue types. Look like a fishing boat or common trade craft. The worse thing they could do would be to draw attention to themselves either by color or number of guns.
  10. Excellent attention to the details, OC. Your figures are looking very lifelike.
  11. Lou, you are right of course. Nothing quite approaches the classic one. As for the abandoned Enzo.... it's not the only high dollar classic performance car that's been abandoned. Over the two decades there's been a lot of stories about them. Some sitting in airport parking lots even.
  12. Welcome to MSW, Graham. BTW, I deleted your duplicate introduction.
  13. Welcome to MSW, Vladislav. I'm looking forward to your seeing your steam cutter being built.
  14. I've been to Astoria frequently in the past. Neat place to just wander about.
  15. You're doing good, Shipman. I too try to clarify things. The more of us that do this, the less hassles we'll all have.
  16. There's a ton of places to buy them. Look at the front page sponsors. There's also here: http://www.dafinismus.de/plates_en.html#anker7 While not a sponsor, his eyebolts are scale appropriate for the 1:96.
  17. That looks to be a fun build, Nils. And I moved it to the kit area as it seems appropriate.
  18. From the "how to start a fight" department obviously. The non-retalatory answer is " because i like a challenge". At no point use the word "challenge" and "you" in the same sentence for the response.
  19. Colin, I suggest you go ahead and start a log of your own. That way it won't be divided up into two places.
  20. Looking good especially with the crew. I can't imagine trying to paint them at this scale. I bow to the master.
  21. I think the price of the one looked at was right around $100,000. The price of the ones on the Ford website (https://www.ford.com/performance/gt/ and here https://www.ford.com/performance/gt/mkii/?intcmp=vhp-gt-revealcta-gt don't have a price listed.. I shudder to think what it is now.
