Amazed as always with your creativity, Patrick.  Shadow is looking great.  I forget how small she is until you show her next to fruit, or your watch, etc.

Hi Frank

 

Many thanks for your compliments.  I also forget just how small she is until I look at the photos, too!

 

Have a great week.

 

Cheers

Hey Nenad

 

Great to hear from you!  Sorry, no magic.  Just having a whole lot of fun doing it.  

 

Maybe that's the secret?

 

Have a great week and thanks for stopping by.

Shadow's shadow did you say? Hmmmmm it looks like, a shadow from a real ocean faring ship, rather than a 8 inch model. 

Bloody great mate

If you had an island with palmtrees in the background ... it would be the real deal to see. Looking swell, mate

oh....I get it........stealth mode!     hey,  I know what you mean.   I'm on here regular enough.....but I've gotten to the point where I've got so many logs that I watch,  I get trapped in either one!  I really need to bounce around....a few here......a few there......I miss so much if I don't do something like that.   you've made plenty of progress.....don't kid yourself.....she looks awesome!

 

  cripe!  all the levels are starting to get cramped now!  amazing how much you've added to her!  

[Omega1234]

Thanks Denis!

 

You're not wrong about following lots of Logs!  Looking through the many Logs on MSW that I follow is definitely one of my great means of inspiration and enjoyment. It's just a shame that there's never enough time in a day to get through them all. 

 

Roll on retirement, I say!

 

Cheers

I just looked through her again.......I was looking for the rooms that were to be the his/her bathrooms .  then I realized I was on the wrong floor!      with all the sofas and love seats you have in there.....the local furniture store must LOVE you!~

Hehe Denis. 

 

You're not wrong.  There're five decks to get totally lost in; so it comes as no surprise that you're having trouble finding the bathrooms.  I keep getting totally confused each time I look at the plans, so I know how you feel😉  

 

Have a great weekend.

Hi Carl

 

That's true.  Oh well, if you're really that desperate, there's always lots of water outside....

Looking magnificent Patrick. I had to backtrack a week or so and spend again a lot of time ogling. Not complaining mind you, loved every minute of it.

Hi everyone

 

Thanks for all of your comments and Likes; all of which are greatly appreciated!

 

I've done a bit more work on Shadow's Upper Deck; principally, her bridge (with the requisite bank of computer displays and control panels), her Captain's cabin, (that's the one with grey and black horizontal striping on the bulkhead to give it a masculine, yet hip decor and, other assorted minor details, too small and numerous to mention!

 

I hope you enjoy the following photos.

 

Cheers

 

Patrick

[Mahuna]

Superb!  Love the photos with the watch for comparison.  So much detail in a tiny space.

[Omega1234]

Thanks Frank!

[Greg the peg leg sailor]

G'day Patrick 

Again bloody marvelous mate.

Aren't you going to put any cushion in the captain's cabin?

Again I love your over sized watch. Where do you go to get those amazing props from? 😆😅😊😁

Havagooday mate

Patrick,

 

wonderful views into your excellent model, must be several hundred single built objects....

[Omega1234]

Many thanks Nils. 

 

I have to admit that I've never thought about how many individual parts she's got, but one thing's for sure, Shadow's been challenging, whilst at the same time, thoroughly enjoyable to build. 

 

I'm glad that you're enjoying the journey as well. 

 

Cheers.

Hi everyone and many thanks for all of your comments and Likes!

 

Lately, I've been working on Shadow's galley.  After a quick Google search of galleys on similar sized mega-yachts, I used as my inspiration a modern, minimalist galley with stainless steel surfaces/grey cabinetry.  Hence, for Shadow, her galley has been modelled out of a burnished Aluminium silver type card, which is a close approximation to the colour that I was after.

 

The only problem with this galley colour is that it is hard to photograph effectively, therefore, you may have some difficulty making out the cabinets and other details, but they're there...

 

I hope you're enjoying Shadow's progress so far.

 

Cheers

 

Patrick

 

EDIT:  Damn this close-up photography!  Please forgive all the dust and rough edges/finishes!  There's a bucket load of finishing off to do, especially to the major structures, such as the hull and superstructure. A lot of varnishing and sealing still needs to be done to the internal accommodation fixtures, as well...she's still 'under construction' of course😉, after all. 

[Piet]

Yep, it looks like a galley alright. Nice work Patrick.

[Omega1234]

Thanks Piet!

 

All the best.

 

Cheers
