  1. if you google diorama Noahs ark there are quite a few around, i tried linking one but it was very poor quality
  2. stunning work, i love it, and agreed that is so much quality work, just to cover it all up
  3. lol i will let you know when the Indi comes out, hopefully the Phoenix (ex Amerigo Vespucci) will be complete by then
  4. good afternoon everyone thank you for comments and likes work continues on the mizzen mast, and I have finished the landing pad for the ships own UFO next will be ensuring the mast is in the correction positions and get some standing rigging fitted
  5. good evening every one the mizzen mast also has a spreader which i made this afternoon thas mast also has another radar fitted on a extended bracket, as i has no dimensions i have winged it for now and adapt later on , i then thought about the chainstays for the shrouds, and then noticed that the kits says 4 shrouds where as there are infract 5 , space in tight where they have to be fitted not my photo

  7. great review, thank you @James H
  8. good evening everyone the last couple weeks no work has been done to the renamed build, the temperature in the UK was silly and made the mancave unbearable and very hard work to put the new fence in, the last week has been DIY with wood staining and a large skip to get rid of all the rubbish, as well and a few finishing jobs But yesterday i built up the Mizzen mast, still to do the spreaders and radar supports,
  9. it certainly filled that, lets do something different period
  10. they are going to look terrific when placed into position
  11. just putting in 3m concrete posts as the soil is quite damp along the boundary, the life expectancy for the wooden ones is about 5 years even if treated, lol i never realised how dam heavy they are to do on my own
  12. that may have to be an option. i have a plan in my head which means keeping it white but i dont see the plan anymore lol, if i could wait for the first of the sails to go on and then stain, i certainly am not in any hurry to rip it all off
  13. good evening everyone thank you for comments and likes it think i have now got the foremast backstays in, but now thinking i dont like the ratlines, they are the right scale i just dont think white and brass works for me, that will mean replacing the shrouds as well why o why do i try to be different and half way through regret it whilst i ponder that i am also replacing a line of fencing 8x6 foot panels the posts all failed in the Jan storm (100MPH winds) with no contribution from the neighbour i am also preserving his side as well , the first panel has been reduced to move the post holes
  14. good evening its another not much to report update ratlines main and foremast complete, still need to be trimmed and set into position, and replace any that dont look like to me Modelspan for the sail
