Amazing work as always, Doris.  You set a very high standard by your work that I and others hope to attain.  In my case, I don't know if I ever will.... :)

Dear friends,

I appreciate your kind words and praise a lot. Your support means a lot for me and I feel  very honored you like my work on the model. Thank you warmly for all your comments.

Well, I think you overrate my skills. Here at MSW there are a lot of great and professional quality models, and I find here plenty of superb inspiration. This helps me to achieve better results in my work. I am still learning new ways, how to do...., and also try to avoid own mistakes that I did at my previous models.

 

 

Is there something what you can not do ???????

Great job again Doris !!!!!!

Your rope work is 10 times better then mine !

 

Sjors

Oh yes, a lot of things I cannot do.... :) For example I am not very handy for cooking, but fortunately I have a tolerant partner who forgive me.:P
And the ropes/rigging - I think, you make a very good job on it. Do not underestimate yourself, I like your work a lot.

 

 

Hello Doris,

it is a pleasure to see your new build log images.

Is it possible that you show us your ropewalk?

Hello Johann,

no problem, I use this rope walk from Amati:

http://www.modelylodi.cz/Pripravek-na-vyrobu-lan-d754.htm

 

 

And what´s new on rigging...

Today I finished main and fore stay. As a basis I use ropes mainly from Amati and Corel, the each rope on the pics below is plaited from three springs.

Dear Nenad, you are very kind to me.

Well, in fact I make mistakes quite often and I have to say, that sometimes I am sad, because must remake finished parts to achieve better or more realistic appearance. Nobody is perfect and I try to learn and improve with each new model that I build. This is a very good motivation..... :)

Kind regards,

Doris

Fantastic work Doris and all of us are quite familiar with redoing things because we are not satisfied with "good enough."

Doris, I will add to the congratulations. Those shrouds have perfect definition of the individual ropes. Did you say what kind of thread you used for making these?

Hi Doris,

Your rigging work looks great, love the ropes, can you tell us how you made the rigging mouse?  I'll need to do four for my Half Moon and am wondering how you did it?

You must have been a surgeon.....your tying all your lines is so perfect....I'm jealous. My fat thumbs (on all fingers) could never be that neat. Great job.

Doris,

 

wonderful Job on the Standing rigging like all your work. I noticed that you have fitted a block tackle between the foremost shroud length of every mast. Super Detail, I have learnt that this is the means to loosten the shroud when bracing the lower Yards. Wish I had known this earlier, I would have adopted that one for my own rigging.

Doris,

I think every manner of compliment has already been used here, and most deservingly so. I must tell you that several years back, I came across a video feed on Youtube of one of your models. I was drawn in like a moth to a flame. I made it my screensaver and studied it intently. Having loved tall ships since a little boy, I decided to join a modeling site and learn this craft.

Thank you for lighting the flame, for now I see.

 

Sincere Regards,

 

Bill

Hello, dear friends!
Thank you very much for your kind words and support. I appreciate all your comments a lot. I have to apologize you, I am writing so late, but I have a lot of problems mainly at work and also many duties, so I did not visit internet almost at all and unfortunately have no time for building models.
I am searching for a new and better job, so it is quite difficult time now for me, cause there are a lot of unemployed people in our country.

I believe, things will go better next months and it will be possible to continue with modelling in winter. I am going to share my work with you and looking forward to continuing.
 

Have a great time and take care
Doris

 

Here are some of last pics from the process, I have made in august.

Hello Mark, I use mainly threads Amati and Corel.

Well, it is made by turning the thin thread around the rope/stay in more layers. I also use the glue (water based) to modify the layers in a suitable shape.

Wow! That´s a show room! Great work, Doris. All of your ships are great. Hope you can be modelling soon and get a better job (hope unemployment on your country decreases, too).

Beautiful progress, Doris.  Your work is very inspiring and after seeing the "showroom" it's a bit daunting too.  But in a good way.  I hope you can sort out the job situation
