Hi Folks! Who said that scatter cushions need to be neatly arranged? Bah Humbug, I say! Majellan has a multitude of various sized cushions on the entertainment and recreation areas of the decks, e.g. the large settees at the rear of the Bridge Deck and the settees surrounding the front of the spa on the Sun Deck. In order to give that "lived in" impression, I just scattered them haphazardly; some on the deck itself, a couple on the spa and the rest placed in no particular order, or pattern. I hope you like the effect! Thanks and all the best. Cheers Patrick

Hi Michael I was wondering what had happened with this build...great to you back into it! Cheers Patrick
-
Hi Mark Carvings? What's life like without a challenge or two? If your current work is any indication, I have no doubt that you'll definitely do it justice. If not, you can always ask Sawdust Dave for help..... Cheers and all the best! Patrick

Thanks Michael! You're right about my next model. It should be easier...one hopes! All the best. Cheers Patrick

So very true, Bob. It always helps to keep things in the right perspective. Thanks and all the best!

Hi Willie Love it! Apart from the minor technical issues, (of which only you would know about, because you're the operator), the only way that your video could be any better would be to sail her in a more natural setting. Perhaps a lake, or the river, where the colour of the water isn't so clear. That'd be far more realistic. But, that's nitpicking, of course. Damn marvellous job you've done! All the best Patrick

Thanks Mark. I wasn't 'fishing for compliments', trust me. It's just that I recognise that I galloped ahead with the internal construction, to the detriment of the external paintwork. Now, it's getting harder and harder to address that mistake so that I can give her the perfect paint job that I usually pride myself on (there are so many things getting in the way). Big mistake! Oh well! Cheers Patrick

Ahhhh. The cat's out of the bag, now, Piet!!! I'm definitely looking forward to this build. Talk about mega teeny tiny! What a challenge, but, no doubt you'll trump it. Luckily I reserved my chair early. Cheers Patrick

Thanks Bob! Over the past week, I was starting to feel really disappointed with myself, because I had started to focus on all of the mistakes and stuff ups on Majellan, rather than what I've actually achieved. Seeing your comment, plus everyone else's Likes and comments, made me realise that it's not that bad after all. Owe you big time, for that! Thanks Thanks Steve! When I was first starting construction, I must admit that the deck plans were so confusing, that I was always getting lost! It's only now, that the construction is well underway, that things are starting to make sense. Took a while, though. All the best guys! Patrick

Hi Bob Nice job! They're tricky fixtures to make, no doubt, and the fact that you're using styrene for the first time, makes them even better. Cheers Patrick

Hi Piet Please, please, please jabber on more!!!! It ain't getting easier for me to guess! Cheers Patrick

Hi Frank Lovely work, overall, as always. The brass jig is a great idea that'll ensure precision and uniformity. Oh, by the way, they're your 'discarded' frames...I can only wish to do one that good!!!! All the best and keep the tutorials coming. Cheers Patrick

Big kudos to you, Mark. Those windows and galleries look great! Nicely done. Cheers Patrick

Hi Mehmet Very nice. I especially love the character of the deckhouses and the wonderful aged effect the weathering gives them. Top job, once again. Cheers Patrick

Hi everyone Thanks for all of your comments and Likes. Very much appreciated! Majellan has large awnings that stretch over the decks to provide shade to the guests on board. The first awning covers the spa on the Sun Deck, whilst the second stretches over the large settee on the Bridge Deck. I've started to do a mock-up of these awnings, which can be seen in the following photos. Internally, I've continued with the fit out of the owner's suite, in particular a small office area that sits just aft of the entrance to the sleeping area. Still loads of work to go, of course. I hope you enjoy the photos! All the best, folks. Cheers Patrick

All I can say, Piet, is that you've got an evil streak there!! I guess we'll just have to wait a little longer...

Woohoo! Well done, Dave. Your Admiral must be happy because now you have no excuse for not listening.....

Hi Keith Nice one. I reckon you've got the deck planking and deck houses down pat. Man, they look good. Great job on the hull, too. You're on a winner, Keith, for sure...I can't wait to see what you're gonna do with the ketch! Cheers Patrick
-
Hi Kees Mmmm. Can't wait, now. I'm sure she's going to be another one of your masterpieces. But, maybe just a bigger teeny tiny hint? Cheers Patrick
