Very nice Patrick!  The amount of detail in such a small space continues to amaze me.

Thanks Frank. My 'way of thinking' says that if it's on the real ship, then I at least should try to replicate it on the model (within reason of course, and assuming that it's within my capabilities to do it). Well...that's the theory, anyway!

 

All the best

Thanks Denis. The paint on the hull was one thing that has bugged me all along; hence why I'm so glad that I've finally tackled it.

 

Have a great weekend!

 

Cheers

I can't add anything to what's already been said, Patrick.  I'll just sit here quietly in awe.

Hi everyone

 

Thanks for all of your comments and Likes!

 

Just a quick update - Last night I added the four life rafts (two on each side) that hang off the sides of the Sun Deck.  The close-up photos show that they still require some 'tidying up', but, that can be done later.

 

Have a great weekend, folks!

 

Cheers

 

Patrick

Wow Patrick, I had to put sunglasses on looking at your jewel, that paint was blinding ;)

Very nice work and now also the life rafts.  Are you going to paint them?

Hi Piet

 

Thanks - yes, the life rafts are, or, at least were going to be painted.  However, Smartypants here went and glued them in before painting them!  :(  :(  :(

 

Now...I have to get out my finest paint brush and try to carefully paint them.  A job made all the more difficult because I'll need to avoid painting the wire baskets that they're sitting in. 

 

Wish me luck!

 

Cheers

 

Patrick

HI everyone

 

Ok.  I'm guilty as charged.  I'm just having too much fun taking photos of Majellan.  I may have gone a bit overboard by taking the following 11 photos, but I reckon she's one hell of a photogenic "looker".  So, please bear with me.  Of particular interest are the ship's tender and one of the jet ski's which have been casually located on the aft garage deck, just waiting to be launched.  

 

However .........these close-ups keep highlighting all the mistakes and 'still to be done jobs'.  Don't worry.  I'll get around to them, soon.  One of the first will be to properly install the railings to ensure that they're all straight and level....

 

I hope you enjoy the photos, folks.

 

Have a great week, everyone!

 

Cheers

 

Patrick

Hi folks

 

Thanks for all of your comments and Likes!

 

Today, I had a day-off work, so, I set about making Majellan's port and starboard navigation lights.  I also added a bit more detail to the ship's tender in a bid to make it look a bit more convincing.

 

Lastly, I repainted the jet skis.

 

I hope you all enjoy the photos!

 

Cheers

 

Patrick

Stunning, Patrick. When you see them details without reference they seem much bigger, as I can't imagine they can be build that small with so much details ... you did some marvelous work ... again, and again stunning detail

Hi Carl

 

Thanks for your compliments. I thought the same thing when I saw your ship, as well as Igor's and Piet's teeny tiny marvels and all of the other miniatures on MSW. But, at the end of the day, it's all about trying and pushing our respective limits to see what can be done.

 

Have a great week!

 

Cheers

 

Patrick

She's beautiful and I'm getting anxious for the christening, there can't be much more to do.

Thanks Bob 

 

Still lots of work to go.  Once the outside's finished, I'll then move onto the lower deck's accommodation, which still requires a fair bit of work.

 

After that...Launch Day!!!!

 

Cheers and all the best.

Do you have list with items you tick off? I wouldn't know what to do next by now ... I was under the same impression as Bob, couldn't find fault with anything anymore ... she looks lovely and ready for her maiden voyage ...
