Dan Vadas Posted April 7, 2013 Share #189 Posted April 7, 2013 Welcome back Frank. Sorry I haven't been on your Build log for a LONG time - I've been a little bit busy since the Great Crash . I'm fairly pleased with the way the sails came out, considering everything was done by eye. at least they add a little character to the ship !! Your ship has more character than most others I've seen, and those excellent furled sails certainly help. Great Job mate .

Yambo Posted April 7, 2013 Share #193 Posted April 7, 2013 Hi Frank. I don't know why I never read your log before but I've just done so. It's easy to be enthralled by a pristine model but I'm carried away by yours as well. You've achieved an amazingly realistic look with the weathering and in a couple of photos I immediately thought "That was some storm Supply just rode out!" Really good stuff, thank you. Good to hear your surgery went well. As they say here "Geçmiş olsen!' Quote If I'd known I was going to live this long, I'd have taken better care of myself.

riverboat Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share #209 Posted April 19, 2013 (edited) Yeah it made me a little dizzy too Jim, ...... I don't know what makes it pixalate so much....... I did this to show Mario how to post a you tube on your post here at MSW. I just ck'd You Tube and the video runs real smooth there.... maybe uploading it causes it to do that??? Ron it takes a long time to upload .... so to do a tutorial on something would be strenuous at best..... at the old Msw they had a video download available where you did your posting but they seemed to have changed that. You Tube has changed their method also..... I had to go online to get the info on how to upload again.It's a good tool for a short presentation, although there are some people who do long videos.I'll have to ck into that.
