Hi Matti Lovely work on the windlass and other deck furniture. I especially love the way that you did the ship's bell. Very nice. Have a great Year. Cheers Patrick -
Hi Greg Thanks! It was deciding how to break the superstructure up into manageable, yet, removable components that was the hardest thing to do, (so far). This was made all the more difficult as I don't have detailed plans, apart from the basic lines drawings that I've downloaded from the net, (and photos), so a lot of guess work has come into play. Not bad, though, I reckon. Have a good'un and thanks once again. PS - my mask is getting a good workout! Cheers Patrick

Hi everyone and many thanks for all of your comments and well wishes for the New Year! Greatly appreciated. I've done some more work on the major components of the superstructure; paying particular attention to how they can be removed easily for viewing. Here are the latest progress shots. Cheers Patrick

Hi Dave She's looking brilliant; what with the cannons, the carvings, the bamboo plankings, all mixed together with lots of hard work and skill. Very nice! After six days of rigging the cannons, I reckon you've earnt a long siesta. Have a great New Year. Cheers Patrick

Hey Pete Happy New Year! I reckon you've excelled with this hull. She's looking great, especially with the wood trimmings for the hatches. Very nice. Cheers Patrick

Hi Mark The hull standing right side up, and looking as good as it does, has put a smile on my face. You must be one very happy chappy now, too!!!! She's looking great. Cheers Patrick

Hi Ben Very nicely done and detailed! With the amount of work you've put into the engine, I'd want to seal it tight inside its own display case for protection and so that people can admire it. If the rest of the ship's going to have the same attention to detail, then she's gonna be a beauty. All the best Patrick

Hi Michael Watching your work is a true study in precision, care and forethought. Now those are lessons I'm yet to get a handle on, but thankfully there's lots of MSW members, such as yourself, that I can learn from. Nicely done! Cheers Patrick

Hi Mehmet You know...it's taken me 30 years for my models to look like yours, but you've been able to do it in a matter of days! Admittedly, my RC boats have been rotting away in the garden shed for these 30 past years. One day I'll take them out and give them some attention. Seriously, though, I'm totally in awe of your weathering techniques. Marvellous. Cheers Patrick
