Here are some pics:

    Those are some great underwater photos.  The water looks quite clear.  All of my own experience with snorkeling was in the waters of western Maui. When the sun was shining on the water the photos would really shine, but when the clouds covered the sun most of my photos came out rather dull.  Eventually I rented an underwater camera equipped with a flash and was happier with those. 

    I found it surprising that even when snorkeling along the shoreline in water less than 2 feet deep the water was still teaming with lots of small colorful fish.  It's one of the activities that I'll always miss the most about Maui now that I'm wheelchair bound and will probably never get to do it again. However, I'm very glad that I took those trips while I was still able to do so and still have the memories and in some cases the photos to bring them back.

Dear friends, 
thank you all very much for your comments and praise, your words are much appreciated and mean a lot for me. 

 

I have just finished first carriage for cannon-of-seven, almost all  parts are made out of card, only some details are wooden or metal. I made it according to documents prepared by Captain KL (there is also a comparison with the Dutch cannon),  and also according to the pictures of carriage from the Endsor's book The Restoration warship.

Doris..where did you learn your skill set?  Did you attend some art school to learn to sculpt.  You have a learned eye for color application and perspective.  It's a wonder if you learned all your techniques by way of self discovery without some form of formal instruction.  Or are you a NATURAL?

 

In any case... learned or by the hand of God...you are marvelous to watch.

Doris, what a magnificent  job on the cannon and carriage but you are missing a few photos between No 1 and

No 2, Do you think you could show some of the processes of applying the wood foil on the carriage?

Hello dear friends, 
thank you all very much for your comments, praise and kind words. I do appreciate your support a lot and feel very honored. 

 

 

To Rob:  I learned all my techniques by myself without any form of formal instruction or education but I was also inspired by the work of other people from whom I also learned many useful things. And still try to learn new ways to do things nicer and better. My skills are natural although it took many years to improve these skills and achieve such results. Nothing is withouth hard work and effort.

No problem, I can take some pics next time and post here. In fact, the process is still the same as I mentioned here before, so you can have a look in previous posts, where you find some of my pics from applying these foils.

 

 

*******************************************

 

There are plenty of new things on the model. I had to modify my pics and add my signature to protect them, cause some manufacturers used my pics for commercial purposes to offer their second-class goods. Customers have seen pictures of the finished model with my own decoration, but the manufacturer was selling them something completely different.

 

Have a look at this - there is the stern of my model Sovereign of the Seas with my own hand-made sculptures and decoration, but the offer is for Amati products:

http://www.hobbiesguinea.es/en/amati-models-spare-parts-and-fittings-for-naval-modellers/3591-amati-models-1831-sovereign-of-the-seas-decorations-set-for-naval-modelling.html

 

They use photos without my permission and cheat customers this way. It pissed me a lot and at first I wanted to end up with a public presentation of my work.

 

Here are the original pics of my model, compare:

https://www.modelforum.cz/viewtopic.php?f=177&t=43575&start=330#p1026535

 

Unfortunately such things happen sometimes and one is not enough to wonder ...😢

Let´s continue.... All decks are finished and placed in the hull:

The carriages were placed into the hull separately and then I added cannon barrels to them. It is possible to move and set them as necessary.

There were also added brass rings on the sides of gun ports for rigging and tackles. I finished other railing on bulkheads.The crew members come from yacht Royal Caroline and were made in a scale 1/40. They are here only for a short time for an excursion...😄
