Hi everybody

 

Well, it's not my week... The heating is functioning again so I restarted working on the galion. Just before adding the blue colour on the vertical strips, I noticed that the whole build has a wrong shape! So I had to soften the CA glue and remove great parts. And while I intended to restart with building the rails, I noticed that there is not enought wood.... So another rest for this part and I will have to order wood strips... After all I was able to paint the gunport lids a second time - but the red parts will need another layer...

 

So, sorry, no pics for the time being.

 

Cheers and happy modelling

Rosmarie

Hi rosemarie yes i know all about reordering,i  bought the admiralty paint kit for mt Victory no way is it enough,i am convinced they calculate the amount of paint need on one coat no errors and no paint touch ups,ah well if i need it i need it so ordering more yellow ochre and dull black,wonder why a uk company used the word dull,that is a american term in the UK we call dull paint matt.  DEREK     :pirate41:

Glad you got the heat back on!  I know about re-ordering as well.  Derek is funny with his 'one coat' comment.

 

But wait!!!!!!  You never told us about the Sopwith flying air cover over your workspace!!!!!  Impressive.

Derek: instead of working on Victory (just some painting) I set the stays at the "Schwarzer Rabe". So, as you see, still working on a sailing ship...

Augie: Good eyes, and sure, you know the Camel... There are more planes, mostly from WW1 because I love those filigrane biplanes....

Hi David

 

Yes, I could start selling some of the paper models... but until now, nobody wants them... And well, I would have some problems giving them away... A year ago I didn't no anything about paper models and then they somehow stole part of my soul (the big part of my heat belongs to the wooden model!!). That's while I'm building now also a paper ship...

 

Cheers and happy modelling

Rosmarie

Hi Rosmarie,

 

Victory is looking good but when did she ever become an aircraft carrier, I dont remember that happening. An interesting notion.

Hello Rosemarie

Hope all is well. What I want to ask is have you assembled the channels yet, and if so how did you find the fitting of the strops and dead eyes in the channels. Did you need to make any adjustments with the strops in the slots. regards DAVID

Hi Shipyard Sid

 

Was a little bit ill the last days - flue - so didn't do anything in my workshop. Now it's better but I am still waiting for some wood which I need for the rails of the galion. As to the channels, I did not do anything with them so I have no idea wheather they fit or not - sorry.

 

Cheers,

Rosmarie

Hello Rosmarie,

 

Sorry to hear you were feeling a bit ill. But I'm glad you're feeling better.

 

Take care,

Hi Kevin

 

Thanks for asking - I am very fine, was just busy with my other ship "Schwarzer Rabe", the card model (also in this forum). In mid May there is a meeting of card modellers and I will attend and show some models too. So I wanted the standing rigg of Rabe to be finished and in between knotting ratlines I build a WWI biplane, the Albatros B.I

 

Attaches a pic of the fluite and some of the plane...

 

Cheers

Rosmarie

Hello everybody

 

Well, in the last months I didn’t feel like working on the Victory. It started when I noticed that I have to re-do the whole galion because the rails looked wrong. And, as some of you know, in the meantime I got strongly infected with the card-modelling virus….

 

In the recent weeks/months I was usually working on a model of the “Revenge” (1577), the beautiful Elizabethian galleon with was for some time the flagship of Sir F. Drake, who was my hero when I was about 10 years old.

 

When not building the Revenge I was busy with model planes (card) from WWI.  And just to let you see some pictures, here there are….

 

You see, I am still busy with making models of some old beauties – and just wait for getting enough appetite to struggle with Vic’s galleon.

 

Cheers,

Rosmarie
