Hello dear friends,
 


thank you very much for kind words and praise, I appreciate it a lot and have motivation to work on models and find new ways how to improve my work. I am really honoured to share my hobby with you all.


 

To Anja: Great to see a lady here, my sincere regards to you. Looking forward to cooperation and sharing.


 


Let´s continue with Royal Caroline...

I finished the roof for main cabin. The red colour (vermilion) was used also on Clevely´s portrait of RC.

The model will have an illumination from small LED diodes, here you can see the beginning of its fitting (it is not complete yet - stern and mast lanterns are missing) and functionality test....

Thank you and take care,

Thank you Anja nad Crackers, I am glad and honoured, you enjoyed the pics of RC. There is still a lot of what I should improve, so the motivation is large and i have to learn. I find a lot of great and awesome masterpieces here and that is a superb inspiration for me. Thanks a lot for this opportunity.

 

I decided to create some crew members for RC to compare her size and
a scale. I am going to make about 20 figures; will include the king, queen,
princess, captain, officers, sailors...etc. Some of them will be created
according the real people that I know.smile.gif

King George II. and the Queen Caroline:

After modelling several crew members I continued with quarter galleries
and the stern. Window panes are made of plexiglass again, the structure
of frames is made of card and covered with wooden-look foils.

Doris,

 

What an excellent crew. The figures and the painting are really extraordinary nice. King George II and Queen Caroline can be proud of them.

 

Thanks for sharing.

Just amazing and beautiful work, Doris. I like the way you did yourself as a figure also.   Is that your dog?  Or the King's dog?

Hello dear friends!

I am glad, you like my work. That´s a great honour for me. Thank you very much. Appreciate your comments a lot.

I still try to improve my work and technologies to reach better result. Really enjoy creating paper models and decorations from clay, that is my favourite hobby.

 

 

Just amazing and beautiful work, Doris. I like the way you did yourself as a figure also.   Is that your dog?  Or the King's dog?

That´s not my dog, I suppose the King could have his own dog in fact, so this one belongs to the King. I like animals but we have only parrots at home. :bird-vi:

Thank you for sharing these. You make it look so easy (even though it isn't) what clay do you use, and are you softening it with something occasionally... it looks like you put some sort of liquid on once in awhile.

You are welcome. This modeling clay is something like FIMO, in our country named Modurit or Modelit. It is quite sticky so I use cold water to eliminate this. It is not problem to soften this clay after a long time, I bought it about five years ago and still it´s O.K.
