Hi everyones!

I had a break in the shipbuilding for more than 3 months. Now, before I go back to my current projects, I decided to do another short mini-project for restoring of my skills.

 

So, I begin as usual with building of the hull.

Of course, to some extent I was joking, but I still wanted to check out some new ideas on this little project. ))

After seeing this level of detail and the size... I'm giving up and taking up knitting.  Wonderful work, Igor.

Hi Patrick, Pete, Bob, Patrick, Mark, Mark and all my friends!

Many thanks for your words of encouragement! I really appreciate your feedback and I am agitated!

I am pleased that the results of my modest creativity bring pleasure to you too!

 

Today I'll show you how I was installing a second mast ).

Igor,

 

Great work!! I see you have bought some more large instuments to fool us besides that giant matchstick of yours. It seems hardly - if at all - possible to make those minute deck furnishings. Marvelous work on the masts and the rigging mate!!

 

Cheers,

Carl

Thank you Patrick and Carl!

Carl, perhaps you unmasked me again and I'll be forced to take a photo where I stand on the deck of this ship (How would I like to be able to do it) ))

Ah, I just caught up on your America in a bottle build Igor.  Marvelous detail at that scale, just lovely.  This makes my fingers itch to start my Dutch fishing boat in a lamp or bottle.  I'm taking notes my friend, your pictures are a good teacher.

 

Cheers,

I think that to build a ship in a bottle is not a difficult task for you. In any case, I am ready to help if necessary.

What kind of Dutch fishing boat are you talking about? Can I see the photo?

 

Best REgards!

Igor.
