DORIS Posted March 3, 2014 Author Share #541 Posted March 3, 2014 I also decided to change wooden colour on the front staircases and painted them into red/vermillion to achieve better and probably more realistic result. Red colour - vermillion was probably used on fitting on the real ship.

DORIS Posted March 7, 2014 Author Share #564 Posted March 7, 2014 (edited) Hello dear friends, I am very honored reading your posts and feeling the support you devoted me. Thank you a lot for your kind words, I really appreciated them. Let me express my gratitude to you all. Your work have to be shown worldwide, Doris. Such a talent don´t come easy. A question - People ask about buying your work? Hello Vivian, well, sometimes I get some offers, but i prefer to keep the models - i build them for a pleasure and joy. Some of my ships I dedicated to my husband. That's enough ! Tomorrow I'm gonna call the Maritime Museum in Rotterdam that there is a model that they really need for there collection ! Dear Sjors, you are so kind to me, but there are a lot of things, i should improve in my work to achieve really high quality of models. I am still learning. Hi Doris, Your model is gorgeous. I just noticed the smoke discoloration at the top of the stove chimney. Very nice touch! Mark Hello Mark, I try to make some weathering for more realistic result. I used Tamiya "powder weathering" - it is easy to apply. Doris, Congratulations, I see that you have added successfully your build URL at the end or your page. I went through 10-12 pictures of the Sovereign of the Seas, it is exquisite! again another beautiful model with such fine detail Guy Thank you very much for your advice, dear Guy, I think, now it is better and easily available to search. To all: I admire your work a lot, it is a big inspiration for me and this forum - MSW has brought me a lot of priceless advice and a great support from kind and friendly people, who help me very much. Thank you for that.
