Your Yamato is looking very nice.  Crisp, clean and sharp.  I can't read Czech, but the pictures say it all.

My only disappointment is that  I haven't seen your RC build log up until now Doris, this is such a different approach.  As others have said, simply wonderful and amazing work, your technical skills are masterly, and only surpassed by the harmonious way that you bring everything together to create such a work of art.  I'll definitely be watching to see how this progresses in the future.

Cheers,
 
Jason

Hello dear friends!

Thank you very much for your comments and kind words, I am pleased and appreciate your support a lot.

After a longer break I'm back and I will show you the continuation of my Royal Caroline scratch build.

In addition, some weeks ago I finished my second plastic battleship - USS Missouri in a scale 1:350 (Tamiya manufacturer). My previous model IJN Yamato is also finished. Here are both build logs and a video, where you can see finished Missouri.

I spent some time at the seaside in Turkey ( Mediterranean), this was a great relaxation and enjoyment for me and my husband.

Here are some pics from our stay:

Hi Doris!

 

Encredible build you have here!

 

I am wondering how did you make the flag look so realistic? Did you print it on a piece of paper or tissue or...?

 

Keep up te good work :D

Well, this was already described at this thread, just have a look:

 

http://modelshipworld.com/index.php/topic/854-royal-caroline-by-doris-card-1749-140/?p=162240

 

 

And what´s new on the model.....

I have just started with masts and rigging, I try to make all these things according to plans from Anatomy of RC and also follow books and other credible information to achieve more realistic result.

The ropes are handmade using the ropewalk. I use ropes by Corel or Amati...

Thank you dear Crackers :piratebo5: , I am also pleased and feel great to be with you - we all are the family of ship lovers!! I like this forum and people here a lot.
