Superb work again Giampiero not only the carving but shaping that Ebony insert as well – although I think it impossible I am resigned to the fact that you are going to inlay the three Flue de Lys in mother of pearl - after which I will give up modelling and take up knitting - Cheers Pete

Hi Giampi

I'll be watching and waiting but even now looking at the work you have put into the Keelson cut-outs for the ribs I can see that it will be a equally beautiful model that will fully compliment the work you have put into its mother ship. Lovely work. cheers Pete

Hello Ciampiero,

I see your last work and am thrilled. The stern of the ship looks
excellent and perfectly built. The beautiful details I admire.
And the boat will also be a work of art.

Just read this entire log- astounding, and a perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

Very few can approach your woodworking skills, very few your metalworking skills, very few your carving skills. All three together and you are pretty much on your own!

I echo the comments of all others, but would add that the lighting deserves particular praise, that is genius.
