Really great job, Augie!

 

I wouldn't go fishing too much... who knows what the ravenous mob might do if you don't drop them a picture of progress now and again...

I love it Augie. Because of the fine detail you put into her your build looks bigger than it actually is: I have to remind myself of the scale here. 

[Bill Hime]

Augie, she is simply beautiful!

[gjdale]

Fabulous Augie. You raise the bar with every post!

[Blue Ensign]

Very nicely done Augie, you have got the deck clamps perfect where the cabin partition line on the false deck is right under the deck clamp cutout. Now are you gonna spill the beans on what wood you are going to use for the Floor??

 

Ben

[mtaylor]

Keep the beans, Augie and surprise us.   Confed is looking great.  Nice work on those clamps.

[patrickmil]

Augie, I'm happy to see you back at it. The interior looks very nice so far. If you'd be so kind as to put off fishing and the great outdoors for a while longer and get more done, we'd all appreciate it.         

[mobbsie]

Some great woodwork going on here Augie. She looks great.

 

Once again you have raised the bar to new heights, well done sir.

 

Good luck with your seasons outdoor activities, just don't go out in the mating season!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Be Good

come on Augie.............cannons aren't mind numbing.........they're a work of art!  sure they are a  'mass production' aspect,  but it's rather fun to add on the little baubles       now,  if you really want to drive yourself to new fits of madness........plank the deck!   I'm with Ben on this........It will be very nice to see how the deck compliments the bulwarks,  and make Ben smile at the same time  

[augie]

Just a quick update.  The inner bulwarks have been painted except in the Great Cabin where they were stained. 

 

I used 10 coats of diluted MS Bulwark Red somewhat modified to attain the red I was looking for (same as the gun ports).  A coat of flat acrylic lacquer was applied as well:

 

 

 

 

 

We'll now be turning our attention to the deck......but not before some (long delayed) domestic chores and a sortie to the hallowed fishing grounds are completed.  I shall return with ....... ???????

 

 

[DSiemens]

Great work Augie. Here's hoping you return with a nice rainbow trout.

[pete48]

Looks Great Augie, Let us know what you catch

 

Best Regards,

Pete

[popeye the sailor]

the deck is going to look sweet complimented with that paint Augie!  nicely done!

[HIPEXEC]

Looking good!

[newbuilder101]

Beautiful! I love that particular hue of red.

[Jim Lad]

Lovely paintwork, Augie.  Enjoy the fishing!

 

John

[Trussben]

Margin Planks??

 

Ben

[gjdale]

Very nice Augie. Enjoy the fishing and beware the Moose!

[mtaylor]

Beware of the fish.. bring the moose home.  After he/she gets done with the yard, there won't be any chores.... until the moose leaves, that is.

 

Planking and painting are top-notch...

[Nirvana]

I will take the moose meat
