  1. I knew we could count on you to herd some penquins this way, Keith. Well done.

  3. Hi Micha, I really don't have an answer with those two models as I've never done one. I hope someone else can provide an answer.
  4. Micha, you might consider the three ship beginner series from Model Expo. It's designed by one our members here who's well known to modelers and will get through the basics of planking, and rigging in a step by step manner.
  5. We do have some folks here witth good libraaries and knowledge that might be able to help with plans such as @allanyed
  6. I tend to believe the term "boxwood" is very generic and used for many woods that are not even close to the stuff we want. I remember seeing a wooden box for soda bottles and being told it was boxwood because that's the wood for boxes. It was a plywood box for crying out loud.
  7. I can't help with the planes but many of us are using lasers (so are the manufacturers). There's so many now on the market in all sizes and power levels compared to a few years ago.
  8. That may be something we'll never know. Family secret? Here's two photos.I found.... I would say that she was probably taller than him.

  9. Great work on the diorama OC. I'm sorry to hear about your fur baby.
  10. Welcome to MSW, Scott. I'd like to suggest that you open log here on MSW for the new kits. It's a great way to meet other builders from around the world and also it's great for getting help when you need it.
  11. Peace and our prayers be with you Bob. From what you say, you're in good hands between the surgeon and first mate.
  12. I was thinking the same thing as Glen. It's so different from the rest of the pack and stands out like a Ferrari in a parking lot full of VW's.
  13. Very brief update. Thanks for the likes. The kit came in Monday and I've spent the last few days re-reading the instructions with the kit in hand and clearing my work area. I hope to have progress on the actual building later this week.
  14. My doc and surgeons have said that basically.... keep going and don't stop is the best mental and emotional health thing we can do. The body many times follows along.
  15. Try acetone, Nenad. Test it on some scrap wood and glued up with CA.
  16. Welcome to MSW, Johann. I'd suggest you have a look at this topic as it'll give you some good help gettnig started selecting a model to start with.
  17. Welcome to MSW, Nic. There's some very nice work there on that model. As to which ship... I take it no plans, notes or anything else related found? This may be hard to sort out. It looks familiar, probably late 1700's and English I'd guess. I hope someone else will recognize it.
  18. I've moved this topic to the appropriate area. I suggest searching this area and also have look at our sponsors. Ropes of Scale and also Syren have great looking rope.
  19. I saw that article and the weight of those cannons had me laughing. I realize it's a type (obviously) but I wonder want thr real weight is?
