  1. This is a really fascinating build! And it blows my mind how fast you put this model together! Thomas
  2. Thank you, Dirk! Where the color is concerned the hammocks look whiter in the images than they really are. I chose an eggshell colored fabric, the silkspan is kind of yellowish too, and the white glue (in spite of its name 😉) did not really whiten up the end result either. I know, Mondfeld states that the hammocks should be brownish because of all the dirt. But then he also describes the making of a hammock as simply 'folding a little roll of fabric . . . ' ☺️ Thomas
  3. Jason, Jim, Carl, B.E., thank you so much for your kind words! And thanks for all the 'likes'! After weeks of building nothing else but hammocks I am really happy to have them finished, and encouraged to get this kind of feedback! It is much appreciated. Thomas
  4. Hammocks are finally finished (see images below)! Thomas Image 1 Image 2 Image 3 Image 4
  5. Your deck fittings look great! They always are a lot of fun. Where the cannon balls are concerned I also had the feeling that the kit provided ones are a bit on the small side and went with 'larger calibers'. Thomas
  6. Your progress on this model is amazing. At that speed you'll be finished in a couple of months! Thomas
  7. As expected your Cheerful turns into another beautiful addition to your fleet! I am really looking forward to seeing the deck fittings! Thomas
  8. For me adding the bowsprit always changes the looks of a ship's hull completely. Your's looks VERY good! Thomas
  9. Thank you, Harley! These hammocks due to their large number really are an endurance test 🙂 Thomas
  10. Hello Richard! Great to hear from you again! Your Syren is a beauty! But what happened to your hammocks? I am now stuck with these things 😉 Thomas
  11. Thank you, Bob, for the copper plate information. Your copper sheathing actually looks very good! A job well done! Thomas
