Sjors Posted June 3, 2013 Author Share #422 Posted June 3, 2013 Thank you all….. @ Patrick, There is one chessboard in scale but that's in the Captain's cabin……. @ Grant, Anja can hide some canon balls but she's at work now so I have a secret hiding place with a few canon balls….. @ Adam, Thank you! @ David, Thank you also! @ Jim, No worries my friend, canons are on the way But when they are there I will use popcorn to shoot instead of cotton balls….. @ Daniel, I know, I know….. Beside all the fun there is still some modelling. Maybe it is better that every time I do something and post it I shall put a link with it? Then you don't have to search….. @ Sherry, You are very welcome @ Adriaan, Anja want to use the cotton for something else…... I'm curious for what…. @ Popeye, I know you have to struggle to a few pages before you see a few pictures….but when you are there, you see something ! @ Mark, Thanks for the compliment about the chess….uh samson posts….. I'm not going to the dark side, I stay on the bright side. When Anja is starting I shall help her if needed but that's it! I have to many projects left……. @ Wayne, Thank you !!

riverboat Posted June 4, 2013 Share #437 Posted June 4, 2013 (edited) Sjors, very nice looking ship you have there, and you are doing an excellent job of bringing her up to being sea worthy, but I'm a little concerned about you and your balls....Uuups!, excuse me, I'd better rephrase that.... You and your "cannon balls"...... Is this an indication that you might be thinking about arming the big S.I. ???, or are you just putting the "fear of Sjors" out there??
