*Hans* Posted September 7, 2014 Share #307 Posted September 7, 2014 Hans, Brazil has many regions and many regional food. Southern Brazilian food isn´t spiced, while northern is. For my taste, I do love peppers, the stronger the best - I have some Bhut Jolokia for daily use... lol Oops - one of the hottest in the world !? I just read only the Carolina Reaper is even hotter (and given it's name maybe lethal...) I'll stick to Jalapenos as a nice and eatable max. I really do like hot - but it must be bearable, and you still have to taste some food Quote Hans Owner of Kolderstok Models - 17th century Dutch ships.

Vivian Galad Posted September 7, 2014 Author Share #308 Posted September 7, 2014 Gunther, sorry for that! Jack, meat is a pleasure nature gives us - pepper and meat together is something deific. Michael, we do have some paradisiac food, and well, maybe some more-than-that drinking . I was raised on a brazilian/russian/italian crossover cultural base and drinking is a fammily problem/matter/thing, truth is I have to hold myself with caipirinhas around :rolleyes: . I´m not the rodeo fan, but we have some good bull raiders in here. And Feijoada is hardcore eating!! Every good brazilian cook has it´s recipe (I do have mine ). Popeye, that's mine too. Either make or eat - but some evil genes get on my way and beauty standards keep me from it as I would like. Well, health is an issue too...

Vivian Galad Posted September 7, 2014 Author Share #309 Posted September 7, 2014 Hans, I think to eat strong peppers is a process. I always liked them, but not that hot until I begun to try some new ones, with different types of food; so I developed a tolerance to strong peppers. I read about some new breeds, though and already ordered some Trinidad Scorpion. Scales say Carolina Reaper is a little bit above this one. *Hans* 1 Quote Current: Red Dragon (modified) by Vivian Galad - Artesania Latina - 1:60 Oseberg (modified) by Vivian Galad - Amati (1:50)Cocca Veneta by Vivian Galad - Corel - 1:70 Finished 15th Century Latin Caravel kit model from Artimanha models Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Hans* Posted September 7, 2014 Share #310 Posted September 7, 2014 About spicy food - the Dutch have had some Indonesian influences , and hot and spicy belonged to it as well. A traditional Indonesian rice table consisted of white rice (of course) in the middle of your plate, and then around it diferent kinds of hot and sweet meats, fish, vegetables like beans etc. The thing then was (so I was told) to eat around your plate - so first something hot with rice, then something sweet with rice - hot - sweet - hot - sweet. This because when you've eaten something hot, the sweetness (sugar) would "cool" it down again - in fact more than drinking water or beer or so. maggsl_01, mtaylor, edmay and 1 other 4 Quote Hans Owner of Kolderstok Models - 17th century Dutch ships.

Vivian Galad Posted September 8, 2014 Author Share #313 Posted September 8, 2014 Joe, that´s something to do if u really want to give a surprise :P I have Frank's Red Hot Sauce amongst my pepper sauces. As for tasting food, I can do that even with my peppers - everything hot, though. And I have a portuguese brother in law who can´t take peppers, lol. Hans, that´s some nice way for eating peppers and Thai food also explores the sweet/hot combination. Indonesian food I haven´t experienced yet, and think dutch food also. Nice music you linked and, as far as the Netherlands may be, anytime u´r near, just let me know that I´ll have some spiced food for u.

Vivian Galad Posted September 27, 2014 Author Share #316 Posted September 27, 2014 Well, here we are. After too much work and almost no time for ship modeling, I´m back for masting and rigging, at least to begin rigging. Still haven´t fixed the hole over the cabin as my soldering iron is missing and every single time I think to buy a new one, I forget to do it as my head is always in my work - hope I can forget the work justs a little bit on the next 2 or 3 days . I´ve made some daylight model shooting with her today, here are the pictures: The arrow is to show a little breaking on my windlass as I was rigging the first blocks. As the bars are wood, not the metal cast which the kit supplied, they are a lot more fragile. I´ll fix it after rigging the foremast completely. That´s it for now. I´ll be working on her next 2 days and begin a new project, soon to be brought to you. :D tasmanian, tarbrush, popeye the sailor and 25 others 28 Quote Current: Red Dragon (modified) by Vivian Galad - Artesania Latina - 1:60 Oseberg (modified) by Vivian Galad - Amati (1:50)Cocca Veneta by Vivian Galad - Corel - 1:70 Finished 15th Century Latin Caravel kit model from Artimanha models Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vivian Galad Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share #328 Posted September 29, 2014 Frank, thank you! I was always thinking on put her outside and take some pictures, but let it pass. Daylight contributes a lot to details. Sam, that´s my backyard. Usually ppl paint it all from time to time (their houses, I mean) but I do like the green/aged concrete contrast - crude concrete with no plaster taunts me, too. Ty! Grant, thanks for visiting!! Pops, they look gorgeous even without sails, but when I finish rigging she´ll really show what junks are famous for. Thanks! Michael, that´s something I trying to reach, a natural oldish look, to hear (read) it from someone else is a great compliment. Thank you vm!

Vivian Galad Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share #329 Posted September 29, 2014 Casey, sails are next in line - don´t know yet if I´ll cut strips and sew them together or if I just cut them in their final look as the kit instructs. I´ll have to consider that after some more readings. Ty for your kind words. Sjors, u guys complain too much about rigging, well, maybe that´s because you choose bigger ships than I! But I´ll be getting some bigger ships on my way, no problem. Ratlines seem to be the Thing (I´ll have some on my next projects ). Jack, the cabin´s awaiting patiently for me - That hole needs it´s copper stripes instalation and soldering before being covered by planks and the switch/battery box already built. I just need a soldering Iron for that purpose (I lost mine on my last moving and always forget to buy a new one when I´m out). Rudder arm rigging will be over that part, too, and I´m still thinking if I´ll follow the kit´s instructions there. Today I´m finishing the masts rigging, by the way. TYVM!! Rick, I laughed and blushed a bit - thank you. Matti, you know I did that over your own pictures, right? When I saw your first pictures from the Vasa outside I considered taking some. Yours are my inspiration and you have a better landscape too! Thank you. Schnnu, I´m just sorting out how to finish my bulkhead aligner tool to begin my next project - as my two first wooden ships, next project will be heavilly bashed! Thank you for your words.

Piet Posted September 29, 2014 Share #330 Posted September 29, 2014 Hello Vivian, beautiful work. She looks great, especially against the "aged" stone The background reminds me of the backyard of our house in Surabaya, Indonesia, where we lived before WW II. Will your ship be transporting hot peppers from Indonesia? If you need Indonesian recipes just let me know. I used to pop them like candy.
