And the subject of the build as well. I've never seen a paddlesteamer in a bottle before. It's true that the sharpness of the background is just beautiful, and the contrast of straight lines in surroundings with the flowing lines of the bottle make an interesting display! A masterpiece once again. I do however miss the penguins in the final result. Are they hiding under the jetty somewhere?

Glen McGuire Posted August 13 Author Share #227 Posted August 13 (edited) Huge thank you to everyone for all the kind comments. Pat, (@BANYAN) says I earned a tot with this one. I wish I could buy a tot and share it with each of you for all your help and adding so much fun to the process! On 8/12/2024 at 8:47 AM, Ian_Grant said: I particularly like the water wash astern of the paddle wheels. Thank you SOOOO much for noticing that, Ian! That was one of the trickiest things I've tried to do. I had to glue a fine paint brush into the end of a dowel rod just to reach that far into the bottle. The I had to bend the metal ferrule of the brush a couple of times to get the right angle to be able to reach behind the wheels. Then I had to have my steadiest hands ever not to swipe paint on the wheels or bottle. Then I celebrated with several tots!

Thank you for that comment, Roel. I've got an artist friend that tries to help me see beyond the straight lines and right angles that I normally see the world with. I'm working on it. @Keith Black - Club Penguin!! LOL! I haven't thought of that in ages!! My son used to be a Club Penguin member when he was 10 years old.

Oh you will love this even more, Keith. You've also reminded me of one of my son's favorite computer games back around the same time. It was called . . . wait for it . . . He had to guide a group of waddling penguins successfully through a maze of obstacles and past a zookeeper, leading them to safety. Here's a screenshot from one of the game maps. I may have to reorder that game! mtaylor, Knocklouder, Keith Black and 3 others 6 Quote Current build: TBD Gallery: Mamoli CSS Alabama; Amati Hannah-SIB; Charles W Morgan-SIB; Aurora-SIB; Independence-SIB; Zheng He Treasure Fleet-SIB; Adventure Galley-SIB; Oseberg/Kraken-SIB; Roman Quinquereme/Archimedes' Claw-SIB; Wa'a Kualua-SIB; Ghost Ship Jenny-SIB; Banshee II-SIB, Completed build logs: Alabama; Hannah; Morgan; Aurora; Independence; Zheng He Treasure Fleet; Captain Kidd's Adventure Galley; Oseberg/Kraken; Roman Quinquereme/Archimedes' Claw, Wa'a Kualua, Ghost Ship Jenny; Banshee II Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
