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.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.

Mirabell61 Posted September 30, 2014 Share #739 Posted September 30, 2014 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.

Bill Hime Posted October 1, 2014 Share #742 Posted October 1, 2014 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.

DORIS Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share #743 Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) 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 careDoris Here are some of last pics from the process, I have made in august. The pins are hand made.
