Gefeliciteerd Sjors !

 

What a lovely trio ( last pic of your post ), I love those vessels under sails, and the "San Ildefonso" as your flagship is a beautiful looking model you can be proud of....

Congratulations Sjors, well done,they look beautiful together.

[Sjors]

Thank you all !

Also for the likes.....

 

@ Randy,

 

Thanks !

I'm proud of what I have done !

She is big and I thought when you are building a big one, it's gonna be easy.

I was wrong !!!!!!

Because she is big you see really everything.

yep, also the mistakes but I'm learning.

 

@ Grant,

 

I keep it with one beer otherwise the bowsprit is ending up at the stern.

The Aggie finished soon ?

I don't think so !

And thanks !

 

@ Ulises,

 

Thank you also.

And yes, it feels great.

Also it feels a little sad....if there is nothing to do anymore.....

And there is, the Aggy

 

@ Tim,

 

Thank you very much !

And as you can see in my signature, I have all ready another build.

The Agamemnon from Caldercraft.

 

@ Daddy Nick,

 

Thank you also !

And if you don't mind, I'm not finishing Augie

He is to big for me !

I will go back to the Aggy and nope, not finished in a few days......

That can take a few years !!!!!!

The dark side is still far away for me but you never know.....some where in the future

 

@ Larry,

 

Also thank you for the kind words.

 

@ Nils,

 

Thanks for the words in my own langue !

I am proud and it looks terrific those 3 ships together.

The models are now back in there own place.

Guarding the house......

 

@ Sam,

 

Thanks !

Be careful with the klompen.

When you are not used to it to walk or dance on it you can brake a few bones.

And that's something we don't want, do we ??

 

Robert,

 

Also thank you !!!!

 

@ Jason,

 

Thanks !!!

I think I take that picture as my avatar

Beautiful, Sjors, just beautiful!  Your current fleet is impressive - once you add the Aggie into that fleet, one would almost think you could dominate your local canals!

 

It does leave me wondering, though, that since you have this apparent tendency to continue to grow the ships (appears the Aggie will dwarf the Fonz), what could you possibly have waiting in the wings? 

[augie]

CONGRATULATIONS, my friend.

 

She is an accomplishment of which you deserve to be very, very proud.  And your fleet is impressive, to say the least.  I look forward to the day we can see your Aggie join in alongside.

 

This is my smile for the day 

[mobbsie]

Congrats on completing her mate, she is a fine looking ship and well made.   :dancetl6:  

 

Be Proud, Very Proud.

@ Wayne,

 

Thank you !!!

My ships are to big for the channels.....maybe the North sea        ???

I have a few (2) options for coming builds.

One is coming in parts every month and the other one I'll be waiting for the release......

 

@ Augie,

 

Thank you very much !!!!!

It can take a few years before I can put the Aggy next to this fleet.

But who cares.....we have all the time of the world ( I hope )

 

@ Mobbsie,

 

Also thanks !!

I will enjoy the Champagne !

Are you joining it with me ?????

And yes, I'm proud !!!!

 

@ John,

 

I'm blushing now.......

Thanks for the good words !

Sjors,

Thank you for the warning, no broken bones for me.

Racing over to aggie to stake a corner out.

Sjors,  she looks absolutely beautiful.....such a work of art!   I am astounded by the size difference.....it would be interesting to see the exact size difference of the Corsair,  in comparison to the Fonz.  but it's really cool to see your fleet all together!

 

congratz,  my friend.........now you have more time for the Aggie!

[Sjors]

Thanks Popeye   

 

The measurements of the Corsair are :

 

Length - 660 mm

Height - 580 mm

Width - 260 mm

 

For the Agamemnon it is :

 

Length - 1300 mm

Hight   -  945 mm

Width  -  490 mm

 

When i see this it's double !!!!!

Wow, that's BIG !!!!!

 

And yes I have more time for the Aggy....I all ready working on her

[Sjors]

Thank you all     

 

It was great to completed the journey with the thought that you all are looking over my shoulder.....

And please, can everyone who is leaving this room, take there own coffee cup with him/her ?

Sjors

[amateur]

Congrats on an impressive model !

I took my coffeecup, but there is still some popcorn sticking to the carpet

 

Jan

[Sjors]

Thanks Jan !

 

I'm happy that you take your own coffeecup.

Finally someone who knows how it worked 

When the room is empty, I'will get the lease dog and let her do the cleaning......

But what a mess !!!!!!

They even let the chairs every where......

Nice job for a rainy sunday to put that all together 

 

Sjors

[amateur]

Don't let the dog into the room before you have the ship on top of the cupboard!

[ScottRC]

Yippee, its so much fun to celebrate the finishing of such a fine model, congrats Sjors.    Now secure her log and transfer your flag to the Agamemnon to oversee the fitting out of that fine ship.

[Sjors]

Thanks Scott !!

 

I already move to the other workshop   

A few things done already but no updates.

I hope later this week.....

See you there if you want to.
