    Hi Nils ....I just look, and look, and look! Then shake my head in amazement. Mighty fine work, Nils. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Jeff Wow! Your idea for making your little man is just brilliant. I think I may just nick that idea....

    Hi Denis Those nets are going to add a further dose of realism to your little beauty. I'd have been tempted to put RC gear and have the winches being able to trawl the nets, (but I understand RC's not your thing). I'm looking forward to the next update. Cheers Patrick

    Hey Rob I love the clock. It perfectly matches the porthole, which, together, just oozes history and charm. Very nice. All the best for 2017. Cheers Patrick

    Hey Charlie Very nice job so far. After seeing the planked lines you've drawn in, it doesn't take much imagination to see just how sleek and powerful these hull's were. You're definitely off to a great start! Cheers Patrick

    Hi Nigel Happy New Year!!! Thanks for joining Shadow's journey and for your compliments. You're definitely most welcomed to follow along; you're never too late. Have a great 2017. Cheers Patrick

    Thanks Piet! Happy New Year to both you and Gwen. I hope you're both fit and healthy and staying out of trouble. Thanks also for the tip about the silver paint. I didn't know that, but now that I do, I'll have to make doubly sure that it provides the right coverage to protect the hull. I did, ahem, fail chemistry at school...(sigh).. On a more serious note, it's great to hear from you. I was beginning to worry because you've been so quiet (and busy, no doubt), lately. All the best Patrick

    Hi Ken Thanks. Please, please, please post some photos in the other Models Forum for us! Cheers Patrick

    Happy New Year Ken! I love your metal work skills and your ability to make things look so easy. Is this really your first scratch build, because you've got some masterful skills there, that's for sure! Cheers Patrick

    Can't argue with that one!!!!

    Hi Jeff Your tools, boxes, desk and the pin vice, and other paraphernalia are great. I especially like the watchmaker's magnifying glasses. Nice! Notwithstanding that, most of all, your hull's looking fantastic. I can't wait to see how you pull it all together. 'Have a great 2017. Cheers Patrick

    Hey Dave Happy New Year! What are you doing staying up to 4.30 in the morning??? Don't you need your beauty sleep? Having said that, your solution to the beakhead's carvings is ingenious. Onwards and upwards! Cheers Patrick

    Hi Mike Happy New Year! I like your concept for the case, especially those complicated joints. My only comment would be to have a back-surface incorporated into the case as opposed to relying on the bare wall. But, that's just my opinion. Other than that, the case is gonna look great. Cgeers Patrick

    Hi Charlie The hull's looking really nice and shapely. Your hard work's definitely paying off. Have a great 2017! Cheers Patrick

    Hey Denis Wow, wow and triple wow! I love all the details you're adding. A very big well done, from me. Happy New Year. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Ken Happy New Year! Your work on this boat is lovely! I'm looking forward to your next update. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Lawrence and Pete (and everyone who hit the Like button) Happy New Year!!! Thanks for looking in. Our house is a complete mess as we're having it painted inside and out throughout. Sadly, as a result, I haven't had much time to work on Shadow. Hopefully, I'll be able to get back to things once the painters have gone. Well, that's the plan... Have a great year! Cheers Patrick

    Hi Rob Your panelling technique is sheer genius! Well done. Cheers Patrick
  22. Omega1234
    Hi Nils Wishing you a very happy belated Merry Christmas and a wonderful 2017. Absolutely outstanding work, as always! Cheers Patrick
  23. Omega1234
    Hi Denis Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I'm just catching up after a couple of week's inaction due to our house being painted-I have to say, though, that your ingenuity in re-purposing materials into fittings for your boat is highly commendable. They look the bees knees! Nicely done. Cheers Patrick

    Congratulations Dave!!!! Your SOS is certainly a triumph in skill and talent. Each update has caused me to marvel even more, from the initial hull, through to the ornamentation and moldings, right through to the rigging and, now the flags. Marvellous, just marvellous. Have a great Christmas and 2017. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Brian It's great to see you back at the work table. Your Mary is going to look lovely when she's done, especially with her beautiful sheer line, rakish bow and gilded ornamentation. Oh, and have a wonderful Christmas and New Year! All the best Patrick
