yvesvidal Posted December 16, 2021 Share #65 Posted December 16, 2021 Giampiero, Will you be keeping the top of the hull black or will you paint it Royal Blue for the background of the friezes, as many models have suggested?

Yves honestly, I don't really like the original coloring of the model.

PeteB Posted December 24, 2021 Share #72 Posted December 24, 2021 (edited) Hi Giampiero - Mate you are a “Machine”. First the beautiful “L'Amarante” at 1:30 then you follow it up with the superb “La Venus at 1:96 and to just to make it a bit more interesting you launch her in 12 months no less. And without taking a breath here we are already on page 3 of your HMS Pegasus build log, 7588 nails later (you haven't got any of Santas Elves working off-season in your workshop have you? ). Mate that’s what gets you the title of a “Machine” down my way 🙂 – all absolutely beautiful work that I admire each time I read a post. - No pressure but we are expecting perfection this time 😉 Stay safe Cheers Pete Edited December 24, 2021 by PeteB typo billocrates, mtaylor, giampieroricci and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dvm27 Posted December 24, 2021 Share #73 Posted December 24, 2021 This, of course, the reason we build navy board style. if you planked below the wales you'd be trunneling until next Christmas.

dvm27 Posted January 4, 2022 Share #79 Posted January 4, 2022 (edited) Absolutely beautiful, Gampiero. Looks like you created mortises for those horseshoe and dovetail plates as well! Could you place a ruler next to the hull in the next photos so we can get a better idea of her size. I've never seen one larger than 1:48 scale?

Yes, horseshoe and dovetail are mortised, as you indicated me with mail, and for this I thank you: if I hadn't known I probably I wouldn't have done it 6 hours ago, dvm27 said: mtaylor, dvm27, billocrates and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
