Congratulations Keith

 

Both ships are simply wonderful. It's easy to see just how much you love this whole ship-building experience.

 

I reckon you've set the bar pretty high in terms of what you've achieved so far. What's next?

 

Any hints?

 

Cheers

 

Patrick

Hi Patrick,

i

                 Thank you so much, I do get a kick out of ship models. I have spent the last 2 weeks finishing up my last four ships, There is a stern wheeler rattling around in my head...... :P , plus, I realized that I am running out of room, have to post a thread titled " Does your house look like this?"  LMAO.

 

Thanks again for your encouragement,    Keith

Hi Keith

 

I had the same problem years ago in my house after my RC yachts began to grow and grow and grow.  

 

My solution?  Build miniatures!  They take up next to no room and are easy to display.

 

Who knows?  You may want to try one, too.

 

Quick question - Are you going to display your new models in the Gallery section?

 

Cheers and thanks

 

Patrick

Sweet, Keith.  They both are super clean and look very fast.

Hi Patrick,

                 Miniatures will be my in my near future, but first one more " Large stern wheeler"  lol.
