Great collection my friend but were's the knife and fork . I also did not realise your build was here. Will suspend mine. foxy Edited September 9, 2014 by foxy dafi 1 Quote

Even though using some parts that I produced in my dim and distant past, you already found your own way to make this model your own!

amateur Posted September 29, 2014 #741 Posted September 29, 2014 I see. Sounds reasonable. What's you planning? More destruction on the lower deck, or fixing the beams, and start working at a higher level? (btw, the diners: will they get some colour?) Jan dafi 1 Quote

(btw, the diners: will they get some colour?) Jan ... as if I ever knew what I was planning ... ... would save a lot of work from the devastation team ,-) The pale color was on purpose and much more a hint towards the flavorless food combined with seasickness. Was this too much or should I still add a faint green shade over the faces? Anyway, I think the lower deck still holds some subjects to discover for me and I am looking forwards to endeavor those realms of ignorance on my side.

hexnut Posted October 1, 2014 #748 Posted October 1, 2014 This build continues to be more than amazing. I zoomed in as much as I could on the scene where the crew are eating, but I did not see any biscuit weevils on the table. Did I miss something? (Maybe they are just underway and the hardtack is still fresh, or so long at sea that they are eating them as protein...) dafi 1 Quote Regards, Bob Marvin Muscongus bay Lobster Smack -Midwest- 1:24- (1st wooden build) Gertrude L.
