Hi Folks!

 

Thanks for all of your comments and Likes. Greatly appreciated!

 

Well, I decided to have a break from the engines for a short while, in order to tackle the ship's tender. The tender is a 6.5metre RIB, capable of 40 knots.

 

The photos show the tender as it currently stands now. I will need to add more details and paint to this little ship.

 

There are also two jet skis which are yet to built, so no doubt, I'll be busy!

 

I hope you enjoy the photos.

 

All the best!

 

Patrick

More detail?   The tender is just amazing as it sits.

Looking good Patrick! :dancetl6:

Hi Greg, Mark, George and Pete

 

Thanks for your comments, all of which are greatly appreciated! I've certainly enjoyed building the tender more than I did with the Caterpillar engine. Much more fun, I say.

 

All the best!

 

Cheers

 

Patrick

Patrick, you have too many Gregs and no George!  I assume that you are still partly asleep over in WA.  :P  :D  ;)

Hi Patrick,

 

Very much enjoying your build...she is looking really great and love the tender and rest of the details. The more I look, the more details I see!

 

Jet ski's will be interesting to watch come together and I know you'll do a great job.

 

Cheers,

 

Nigel.

Hi everyone

 

Hope you're all well!  Thanks for all of your comments and Likes.

 

I've had a go at the two tiny jet-skis.  They don't look too bad (for their teeny tiny size), but they'll look heaps better once they're painted.

 

The photos below show the jet skis in the tender hangar, alongside the ship's RIB tender.

 

I hope you like them.

 

Cheers

 

Patrick

My eyes my eyes.  I am used to seeing miniatures and am always amazed at the skill and patience needed to produce them.  I think those jet skis look great.
