Hi Igor Four centimetres in length! Well, in actual fact, my Mystic motor yacht is 5 cms in length; a mere giant in comparison. I tell ya, it takes some serious skills to do what you're doing. Nicely done! Cheers Patrick
-
Woohoo Igor Great to see you back. I still can't get over how tiny she is, not to mention how much detail you've put into her. Lovely stuff! Cheers Patrick
-
Fantastic Frank. Glad that all is well and I look forward to your build log. All the best! Patrick

Hi Denis My best wishes to your Admiral and son. I hope it's nothing serious. All the best! Cheers Patrick

Hi Keith Lovely work. Your skills as a furniture maker are clearly evident in the way you have finished the wood and your ability to combine different colours and types of timber. Nicely done! Cheers Patrick
-
Hi Denis She's coming along nicely! Cheers Patrick

Hi Ken I was reminded of your model when someone mentioned making card models earlier today. It made me think of your ship and so, I thought I'd check in to see if you've been able to make any more progress so far? Cheers Patrick

Hi Frank Many thanks. I have to admit that when I put one of my miniatures against one of old RC yachts, I think the same thing. The RC boats are absolutely massive in comparison. I hope you're well and that your next project is coming along soon. All the best! Patrick

Hi Bill ...pretty darn hard to find anything to find fault with in your ship. Love your work. Everything's finely crafted, precise and beautifully detailed. Really, really nice! Cheers Patrick -
Hey Pete Congratulations. Definitely your best work and, my favourite in your fleet so far. Nice one! Cheers Patrick

Hi Mark Absolutely no need to go quietly, because the link is greatly appreciated. I'll do a bit of researching now. Many thanks Patrick

Hi Mike Long time, no hear! I'm just wondering how you're going and if you've been able to get back to your Colin Archer lately? Cheers Patrick

Hi George - Yep, those shows were great, even despite the bad acting and predictable storylines. I can always remember being amazed at the models and how realistic they were able to make them look. Ahh, the good ole days! Hi Michael - I'd love to build the real thing one day. Alas, I can't really see that happening any time soon. I gotta admit, whenever I think of what you've been able to do with your Maria, well, it just makes me dream. You're a lucky man, for sure! Thanks Denis - You know, skimping, or no skimping, I actually doubted whether I could build Mystic. I don't have Igor's skills at the super-mini scales, but I was able to build all the internal details, which proves that you never know what you can achieve until you try. You're also right about having to elongate the deck pillars on Magellan's superstructure. For some reason, I must've miscalculated the height of the cabin walls, which meant that the pillars didn't actually meet like they're supposed to. I guess at this scale, the cumulative effect of this error has meant that, I'll just have to cheat and elongate the pillars. I don't really have any other option, apart from rebuilding the whole superstructure. And...I ain't doing that; that's for sure! Hi Greg - Mmmm, a model of Spindrift, now that's food for thought! It'd actually be quite a fun project, but getting hold of the plans would be hard, I guess.

Hi Piet I'm sorry I missed this build, too, but I joined MSW too late. What a magnificent and beautifully detailed sloop. I love it! All the best Patrick

Hi Greg OMG! That brings back so many memories I loved that show when I was a kid, especially the space ship that they travelled in. There were other great shows at the time which had fantastic models, such as Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea and the Thunderbirds. Boy, I'm getting old...

Very nice Keith! Cheers Patrick
