Landlubber Mike Posted April 20, 2013 Share #222 Posted April 20, 2013 Thanks very much Frank Everyone is good and healthy here, albeit sleep deprived. I'm hoping to get my Badger done by the end of the year so that I can start on my Pegasus. My standing rigging is about done, and I'm up to the furled sails part now. Your Supply pictures are going to come in really handy, just hope mine come out half as nice as yours. Quote Mike Current Wooden builds: Amati/Victory Pegasus MS Charles W.

hexnut Posted May 10, 2013 Share #228 Posted May 10, 2013 Frank, I juist got a chance to go through this log, and your thoughtful weathering turns this from a great ship model into a work of art. I love how the decks are scrubbed and the rigging is taut,like a well-run crew would do, but the hull and sails show the wear of long voyaging. Do you do a lot of military and or railroad models? (I just ask because showing realistic wear is so important in those modelling areas.) Thank you sharing the "barnacle infestation" techniques!

And love the video - I have thought many times about doing it, but I would have to be a bit better at building for it to work; right now anything I did would only be appropriate with the benny hill theme behind it!

riverboat Posted May 21, 2013 Author Share #233 Posted May 21, 2013 Hi Ron..... yes I did the parell beads on the foremast (2 ) and the gaff boom. They were easy enough to do ,but tying them around the mast itself was a pain, for me anyway. I don't think I tied them on correctly, but they're on and that's the way they stay . Are there any particular photos you need Ron ? I'm going to try and get back and finish this up, I've got all the rigging in place , just have to tie them off to their proper place . I just ordered a new macro lens for my camera, so hopefully I can get some good close up pictures when it comes in. I'm glad that my build has been of some help to you , but you're doing an excellent job without it. Just let me know what it is you need and I'll be happy to do what I can. Frank Scoot.... always nice hearing from you.... like I told Ron, hope to finish up my build shortly... When are you going to get your build back up? Its such great work. It should really be seen by all the new and old( for those that missed it ) members here!! Frank Quote completed build: Delta River Co.

TBlack Posted May 21, 2013 Share #235 Posted May 21, 2013 Frank, I'm coming late to this party, and I have no excuse except that there are so many parties on this site that it's hard to keep up. Nevertheless, I wanted to join the chorus of praise on 3 fronts: first, your return from the hospital (many of us are getting to the age where the medical profession looms more largely in our lives!), second, for the sails work. I've often wanted to include them in my models, but I get scared off by the needlework involved...They look good! Finally, the video, which played fine for me with Chrome, a nice idea, especially because we get to hear your voice which just adds another dimension to our connections to one another. Thanks for posting. Tom augie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
