Guillermo Eduardo Madico Posted September 7, 2020 Author Share #65 Posted September 7, 2020 Thank you Reg, Don and Bob and for the likes. I assure you there are plenty of flaws but I think they are ok. I added the stern post the transom and upper counter. I have planned the painting patter ahead of time and some sections were painted before they were glued. The cap rail on top of the transom took a long time but the effort was wort it. The circular ports were enlarged to match the transom plate. Next reinforce the upper counter to start the Qgallery.

Guillermo Eduardo Madico Posted September 13, 2020 Author Share #69 Posted September 13, 2020 Thank you Rusty, Steve and Jorge and for all do click the likes. I do agree she is a beauty but most of the credit goes to Chuck’s wonderful design. I started the Qgalleries, I used the guide to mark the placement of the first peace. I found that the lower part of the Qgallery was easier to build upside down. The false window in the Transom was added next. I decided to paint the windows white. Not as fancy as Beckman’s ivory windows but they look ok. The toilet, upper part for the ceiling and the little stop peace were added next (thank you Chuck for giving us multiple copies of this peaces). Looking from the top to be sure it was aligned as Chuck instructed. The pillars for the windows went next (probably 4 hours to get this right). Windows are not glued and will be painted white. lots of thinking and going slow was the best strategy as Chuck have suggested. I am working in drawing the freezes by hand. Thank you Beckman for giving me you PDF files. They contain most of the model elements. I realized the figures are Mer people inspired by mermaids and fish that appeared in 18th century cartography and are represented in Europe’s fountain sculptures. The Fontana di Trevi is a good example. I will use those to improve the figures in the freezes. My first pencil draft is bellow, simplified to be a freeze component, Best, G Ron Burns, rafine, Beckmann and 17 others 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfhealey Posted September 14, 2020 Share #70 Posted September 14, 2020 Wow! If you can pull off drawing the friezes by hand - and you clearly have an Italians feel for classical drawing - that really will be something. Good luck Guillermo!

Guillermo Eduardo Madico Posted September 26, 2020 Author Share #71 Posted September 26, 2020 Thank you Fred and for all the likes. My plan is to draw and hand paint the figures at 3x to 5x and turn them into digital images I could shrink to size and place to fit the freezes. I have collected a bunch of images I like from sculptures and I am drafting them. I will post the paintings as I go. here is another drafted in an office PosIt at about 3x Bellow I adde the window seals The roof piece goes in Slate shingles with some weathering looking paint This help me build the Transom more confortable. All the moldings are in and the red decoration on to of the window frames; need to touch up the paint a little. Painted black the top of the frames. A good view of the moldings. I added some read on the arches in the side windows. I have seen that in contemporary models. I am holding on with some moldings which I will add when the freezes are ready. Next the widow columns.

Guillermo Eduardo Madico Posted October 12, 2020 Author Share #73 Posted October 12, 2020 Thanks Matt, most of the credit goes to Chuck’s beautiful design. Thank you for those that are following my posts and for all the likes. I added the columns to the galleries. This was a lot of delicate work wit mini chisels and diamond files. The resin figures were painted as recommended by Chuck. I used an artist brush to add the stain into the shadow areas of the figures. Then I removed the stain to create highlights with a silicon artist brush. After 24 hours the figures were sealed. I got a macro lenses for my phone, you could see where the stain accumulated. In some areas you could see doted lines which are left by 3D printing or Jack’s 3D carving. The picture below shows a before and after to show best the effect. My intend was to match as much as posible the colors of the surrounding wood. The detail of this carvings are amazing; for example the leave Coronas around the circular gun ports are not identical but rather mirror image of each other. Jack’s attention to detail shows up very clear. The windows fit was perfect thanks to those spacers used during construction. The quarter galleries got the same treatment. I added the acetate film after cleaning the laser char with alcohol. I glued the windows before adding the top and bottom parts of the columns. In the picture bellow, you could see how nicely the gallery and Qgallery windows align. Gallery windows are not glued. I paid special attention to the placement of the feet and heads of the main figures and carved the moldings whit mini chisels to accommodate them. I noticed that Jack rolled the tail fin of the fish to fit the molding so I followed the placement of the fish as in the plans. Everything got sealed with Testor’s matte seal. I chose to paint black behind the corner figures to enhance the contrast and it payed off. The molding around the figures were carved with mini chisels for a title fit Once the darks behind the gallery windows build up the white paint will show best. I am planning to use a little white here and there in the model because I will plank the deck with holly. Next I will add the hand painted freezes. I have collected a bunch of Mer figures that I will add. Best, G CaptMorgan, JpR62, Jack H and 25 others 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guillermo Eduardo Madico Posted October 13, 2020 Author Share #78 Posted October 13, 2020 Wow, thank you Michael, Jean-Paul, JJ, and Rusty for your comments. Rusty, you have mentioned you used holly for decking before. Are there do’s and dont’s for Holly? Does the same blade in the table saw used for Yellow Cedar, will work? I worked today in a draft for the Qgallery freeze. Bellow is my starting point. Which me luck to turn this into a 4 color rendition with paint a brushes. The pencil draft is at 5X scale.

Rustyj Posted October 13, 2020 Share #79 Posted October 13, 2020 Hi G. I use a 90 teeth per inch (TPI) blade when I rip either holly, or the pear I'm currently building with. The holly is harder than the cedar but for me I don't really see that you'd do anything differently. Your drawing is really nice. I can't even draw a stick figure.

Guillermo Eduardo Madico Posted October 18, 2020 Author Share #80 Posted October 18, 2020 Thank you Rusty. I have completed the Q gallery freeze and I am happy with the result so I will give it a go to paint all. The final freeze will be smaller than the one below. I added some extra turquoise green to the margins to make the picture bigger than needed just in case. The original was painted at 5X and the figure was inspired by a fountain sculpture in Europe. It needs a little touch up but it is almost done. I will make to copies one mirror image for the other Q gallery and insert the image in Chuck’s PDF file to get it to the correct size to print.
