I'm speechless at this great work

[dvm27]

Wonderful work, as always, Karl. Are you cutting the mortises for the  carlings with the beams already glued in place or prior to fixing the beams?

[Jim Lad]

More delightful "eye candy". Thanks very much for the update, Karl!

Jeronimo,

I was trying to find the words to describe this magnificent build, but words fail me.

I'm speechless !!

Even though I will probably never venture to the dark-side of modelling (scratch-building), I'll be following along from now on just for the stunning eye-candy.

You are a master-modeller !!

Keep it coming.

[AnobiumPunctatum]

I hope that I have the possibility to see this fantastic model sometimes in real life.

[Jadesworld]

Hello Karl.

Each time you post photos I am totally amazed on the realism of your build.

Everything and detail is there.

WOW is the only way to discribe this build.

 

Regards Jade.

Sorry, but I do not understand the question,

Google Translator is not so good.

Can someone translate the question from Greg in the

German language?

"Are you cutting the mortises for the  carlings with the beams already glued in place or prior to fixing the beams?"

Hast du die Scheerstockspuren / Auflager für die Scheerstöcke und Rippen vor dem Einbau in die Deckbalken geschnitten oder erst nach dem Einbau?

 

Gruß, Daniel

Hi Daniel.

Thank you for your Help.

 

Hi Greg,

the mortises were cut prior to Installation in the deck beams.

Breath-taking work as always Karl.  I love coming to your log.

It's easy to gesticulate than to line up many praises that you deserve completely, in front of a work such yours...

It's ordinary, familiar maybe boring for you to read at every turn these praises about your mastery that you deserve completely but I have to repeat at every update... 

[lamarvalley]

Absolutely beautiful stunning details and definitely a pleasure to view.

I agree with Ferit... it may be the same old compliments but they are genuine.... perhaps if we all could wordsmith as well as you craft your ship we could come up with new ways to give praise

[dvm27]

Love those barrels with individual staves even though they're mostly hidden by the lattice work and doors. Such attention to detail makes this a truly unique model.

Karl some other thread is asking a question about skill levels your work demonstrates that there are Masters amongst us. You show us wonderful workmanship, that is amazing.

? the dead space between the bulkheads abd the ships hull, would this have been used for any thing, or a requirement to be kept clear for observing of water ingress, i ask because a there is a lot of space not being used, and on a modern ship, although metal in construction would be used.

[dafi]

Great look and feel!

Amazing! Looking at your pictures I always forget that this a model that is relatively small.... such incredible attention to detail.

Thank you for the inspiration. 

[BareHook]

All I can say is "Awe Inspireing", I keep expecting to see workers walking around the build, although I'm not sure a full scale build would be as precise.

 

Are you retired? You make amazing headway on your project, considering the speed and quality of work.

[EdT]

Beautiful work, as always, Karl.

Magnifique!

Very interesting to see the difference in design of the anchors towards the english contemporaries. The palms are bolted on?
