DORIS Posted March 8, 2013 Author Share #41 Posted March 8, 2013 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 anda scale. I am going to make about 20 figures; will include the king, queen,princess, captain, officers, sailors...etc. Some of them will be createdaccording the real people that I know.King George II. and the Queen Caroline: 3qq, Jeronimo, avsjerome2003 and 4 others 7 Quote Doris Current build: HMS Royal Katherine 1664 from card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DORIS Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share #51 Posted March 10, 2013 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.

slagoon Posted March 10, 2013 Share #57 Posted March 10, 2013 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.

DORIS Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share #58 Posted March 10, 2013 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.
