westwood Posted Wednesday at 08:16 PM Author #241 Posted Wednesday at 08:16 PM Hey guys, Thanks for your kind words and likes. I'm slowly making progress, finishing things I've been putting off. I cleaned up the carvings and since I couldn't get the Old Masters Gel Stain I had to find another solution with Vallejo Wash. I also had to paint the friezes on the binnacle... It didn't turn out as I wanted, but I can live with it. The belfry, belfry rail and other details and the forecastle are almost finished. The breastrail.... is finished and I just have to install the rest of the parts and finish the quarterdeck.

Robert-S Posted 21 hours ago #243 Posted 21 hours ago Hi Dusan, I am from Slovakia, living now in Switzerland. Stumbled on your log through Winchelsea - she is beautiful. Glad to see somebody from Slovakia in this forum performing this hobby so beautifully. Myself I am a newbie, fighting HMS Pegasus from Amati. Made a couple of mistakes very soon, they show now and take time to cover up. Well, learning by doing... Keep up your work, very nice, I like it very much. Will be following you on your journey. Congratulations, Robert Ryland Craze, JpR62 and westwood 3

glbarlow Posted 4 hours ago #245 Posted 4 hours ago Wow, really great work. I can’t get over all the hand painted decorations. The overall darker wood (vs. my AYC) makes yours a standout. Well done!
