  1. Hi folks. Earlier this year (2024), my son-in-law and his brother, bought a full sized Axopar 37 Cross Cabin boat. As soon as I saw it, I suddenly got the urge to scratch build a miniature version of the boat as a surprise gift for him. I built it to a scale of 1:64 which equated to a hull length of approximately 18 cms. I also detailed the interior of the boat (as can be witnessed by the removable superstructure). The hull was carved from wood, while the superstructure is made from styrene. Das modelling clay was used to simulate the upholstery in the main cabin, below deck as well as the seating are in the bow. I hope you like it!
  2. Hi Zebman. Thanks! A 90s Feadship sounds very interesting. I look forward to seeing you do it. Enjoy your week.
  3. Hi Nils It looks like this is going to be another one of your amazing creations. Superbly crafted with precision, skill and talent. I look forward to following along. Cheers Patrick
  4. Hi folks. I’ve been working on my latest mega yacht model named Inspiration over the past 14 months and is, as yet, still incomplete. As is customary for all my models, all of her decks are fully removable to reveal a fully detailed interior, from the engine room, right through to the top deck. I’ve still got quite a bit of work to go, but I hope you like her so far. Thanks Patrick
  5. HI everyone I was just clearing out my cupboard and found that I have both volumes of the Naiad Frigate books in mint condition. I have never used them to build the model and as such, the pages and dust jackets are clean and in perfect condition. Both CDs and plans are intact and have never been used. Pls note that I am in Australia and the buyer will need to factor the shipping costs into the purchase price. Pls message me to discuss. Thanks Patrick
  6. HI everyone I was just clearing out my cupboard and found that I have both volumes of the Naiad Frigate books in mint condition. I have placed a post in the trading forum if anyone is interested in offering to purchase them. Thanks Patrick
  7. Thanks so much, Phil!!! I hope you’re going well. Cheers Patrick
  8. Hi Pat. Many thanks and much appreciated! Sometimes life just gets in the way; hence my sporadic appearances on MSW. Hope you and your family have been going well. Take care. Cheers Patrick
  9. Many thanks, Mark! Much appreciated 😀😀😀. Cheers Patrick
  10. Happy New Year, folks! Here’s my latest update of Splendid. Most of the accommodation across her six decks have been completed, but lots of work still remains; particularly in her two-decked engine room. I hope you like where things are so far. Cheers Patrick
  11. Hi Drazen. Just totally gobsmacked! You're definitely at the top of your game. Masterful!!! Cheers Patrick
  12. Hi folks! I hope you’re all well. Pls allow me to show you the latest update of my scratch-built miniature model, Splendid (1:500). During the past few weeks, I’ve spent more time building the individual cabin walls and bulkheads for the internal accommodation across Splendid’s five decks as well as more preliminary work on her two decked engine room. More work’s still required, of course, but…she’s getting there, folks; she’s getting there…! Have a great week. Cheers Patrick
  13. Hehehehe Pat All puns are gratefully accepted! Many thanks and have a great weekend 😀 Cheers Patrick
  14. Many thanks, Mark. This is my second round of surgery for kidney stones (the first was 6 years ago). I can still vividly remember the Nurse saying that she had given birth to kids as well as kidney stones. The kidney stones were far more painful!!!! I’m glad that you’re over yours. Thanks Patrick
  15. Thanks and as a fellow stone sufferer (LOL), you have my sympathies!!!! I’m glad that you are over them. Cheers Patrick.
  16. Hi folks! I haven’t been able to do much on Splendid lately as I’ve had some ruddy kidney stones removed. All good now, so far (fingers crossed). Anyhow, here’s the latest. I’ve cut out all of Splendid’s five decks and started to add the cabin walls, etc. There’s still a long way to go, but some progress is better than no progress at all, I guess. Cheers Patrick
  17. Many thanks, Frank!!! No pun intended, of course. Heheheheh.
  18. Nice job, Bill! I always have an extra dose of respect for SIB builders. The magic just never seems to wear off. well done. Cheers Patrick
