I also like your scetches when you plan and bring your thoughts and ideas to paper...

Looking good Nenad!    Kids-----I think they're the same all over.  None of us older guys can understand them.  Like they're from another planet. 

[Piet]

I understand the process for the portholes Nenad but thought you could have used shoe lace grommets.

Copper wire works 

 

Cheers,

Faced with simillar ideas as tatoo, I remembered me as hipy with long hair (believe or not, I had hair once upon a time), psyhodelic music, sitting always on floor, picking my guitar everyehere ... Flower power etc etc ... On that time, we were from another planet for our parrents ... And life learned me - everything will be ok, just let them be mad for a while, they have right to be young and insane, just as we did, but in their own way

As I can see, CS fleet runs tonight and captains are busy, facing with problems here and there

Same is in my shipyard, a lot of works finished tonight ( there were some unknown working ants appearing from nowhere helping me )

Roof and floor moldings added, also at corners etc etc





I was satisfied with look and feel, apply thin layer of putty, and fine sanding with 280 paper granulation starts. After that, thin layer of acric as "putty" and another sanding turn, this time with granulation 360

After that, dust works done, and paint works started with two thin layers

Finaly, aft deck house is done











I can go to "roofs" and planking of roofs.

Skylight for aft house will be make and on place after planking

That's a good looking deck-house Nenad.  I think I recognize those "working ants", and Piet reported some of his has jumped ship. 

[SawdustDave]

Very nice work Nenad. "Patience".... You asked? That little deck house required an awful lot of patience my friend.

Cheers

[Omega1234]

Lovely work, Nenad.  You and your worker ants must be very pleased!

 

Cheers

Looking good Nenad and thanks for sending a few of your working ants over

Looking excellent!

Thanks George. Looking for a tiny part of molding under workbench, under old forgotten shoes, I found a little illuminating  teleport gates, designed for working ants, so mystery is partially  un-hidden. Gates are to small for me to check another side - who is their owner ( I suspect Piet)

Mainly, I agree Dave, a loooot of time needed to do this, and at one moment patience simply disappear, when portholes and doors came to line. Then I saw Michael`s work ( http://modelshipworld.com/index.php/topic/74-bristol-pilot-cutter-by-michael-mott-18-scale-pof/page-62#entry363039) and ... what to say ...

 

 

Lovely work, Nenad.  You and your worker ants must be very pleased!

 

Cheers

 

Patrick

 

Thanks Patrick. Mainly - yes, enough to keep it as final solution. That acrylic paint will get darker from time. Same level of simplification on all three decks, same look and feel, same making method  . And if anybody will look at this details, I think attention will be on roofs where boats will be, where skylight will be.

 

 

Looking good Nenad and thanks for sending a few of your working ants over 

 

Cheers,

 

Look around Piet, you will also find a little teleport gates around your workbench. My ants are marked blue, and I suggest you to mark your red, not to stir workers 

 

 

Looking excellent!

 

Thanks Peter for nice comment. I am carefully watching and learning from your rigging. Do you need some ants or have some to send to us ?

I can't wait to get off the road and back into the ship yard.  I'm very jealous of you!

Keep up the wonderful work!

They have not been doing any work for two weeks now!)

Teleport malfunction, they reported

Starting with "roofing" of aft deck house

Surrounding molding was kind of testing of my skills. Not bad

Planking with 2,5mm strips of veneer, already seen here, and done and re-done couple of times in my build. This time, much better and more precise

2,5 mm are a bit out of scale. Measuring and comparing with photos show planks width of 1-1,5 mm, which can be done, but in my opinion, it would not give proper "planking look" of roof planks. So I decided to shrink width to 2,5 mm, which is less than plank width on decks, just for contrast purpose



Where was my today patience two years ago?

Edited November 18, 2015 by Nenad

[NenadM]

Rough "roofing" works done. I used same method as on decks. In this stage, I'll move to another houses, to make equial planking pattern, with same final color on all of them

Hm hm hm, not exactly.

 

Rather mix of C-plans and look from photos from internet.

 

Her destiny is to look nice in glass cage in my living room, and considering I have not enough skill and knowlidge resources to make her exactly as She looked in exact period, I chose details I like

 

Thanks for nice words
