  1. For future reference, if you used PVA glue, just wet it with denatured alcohol and it will soften the glue and things will come Free easily. Looking good!
  2. Yuck! I hate not being able to obtain permanent licenses... you become forced to “rent” a product.
  3. Ahh! So make a very simple extrusion from a 2D drawing then start chipping away from there? That sounds like a great idea. I’m going to make a figurehead for another project I’m working on. May I ask what version of Zbrush you are using or what you recommend to get results that are on par with what Chuck has provided us with?
  4. I think I did the .045” rope, I’ll check out yours again. I’ve been a real cannon snob and I’ve been buying Chucks turned brass ones and blackening them, I’ve been happy with those but the resin ones people are using look great as well. unfortunately I’ve haven’t invested in a 3D printer yet so off to shapeways I go with this one!
  5. Ugh I know, I never look forward to rigging guns but it’s rewarding when finished. I’ve been on the fence about rigging them and sticking with Chucks recipe but then it just gets too tempting and I think I have to do it. Thanks for noticing the lanterns, once I complete chapter 6 or at least the aft end of it it, I will start with 7 and my lantern production will begin as all my LED’s are loosely awaiting their final positions. I’m toying with 3D printing them as solid units in clear and just painting the details on, they are a small production to make.
  6. Just out of curiosity, what was the learning curve like with it? On first impression it doesn’t seem too difficult. Have you had decent results with importing 2D drawings and sculpting off those?
  7. Ahh so you’re a Z brush user too! I’ve been playing with the free version and quickly realizing I need to step up if I’m going to make any quality carvings. I need to invest some time into really learning that program, it’s incredibly useful in our hobby. JJ
  8. Yes indeed, I've been renovating my home so that pretty much consumes all my time... and money! I’d like to get chapter 6 going soon.
  9. Looking really good! Are you modeling those figures or just manipulating them! Either way they look awesome!
  10. Fred, I agree with everyone else, your Winnie is definitely looking great, you should finish her and be proud. It’s quite the accomplishment. JJ
  11. Looks really nice! I agree with Mike, watch those joints and you won’t be disappointed. JJ
  12. That looks really good Guillermo! That’s definitely the hardest part of the deck and you’re making it look easy. Your cherry coamings and grates look wonderful next to the cedar. JJ
  13. Those look really good Siggi, the attention to detail is wonderful and I love how you added the small details to the transverse combing beams.
  14. That looks excellent Rusty! Your Winnie has such a warm inviting tone with the pear! I can’t wait to rejoin the party!
  15. Beautiful! I’d plank as little as necessary.
