Sjors Posted March 28, 2013 Share #183 Posted March 28, 2013 Hi Doris, If there is an other word for WOW then i want to use that! Really really great job you have done…. Amazing, unbelievable and great. I think there are no words to express what I see and what you have done. Maybe it is better that i say nothing and just enjoy what you are doing!

Sjors Posted March 29, 2013 Share #198 Posted March 29, 2013 Hi Doris, I don't say this time how WOW this is. You know it your self But I have one question, are you perhaps a teacher? When I was at school ( 10 years ago ) my teacher was always drawing at the black board and I never get the same has he did. I think this is the same. You show us something and I know for sure that my builds are not that awesome as yours. So if you are a teacher and still giving lessons where can i sign in????

DORIS Posted March 29, 2013 Author Share #200 Posted March 29, 2013 (edited) Thank you a lot for your comments, dear friends, I am pleased you like my work. There is still a lot of things I should improve in my work so I have motivation to learn and try new ways.... Looks good. How did you do the roman numerals? Numerals are printed on matt photo paper (using ink printer), then oversprayed by acrylic clear varnish and after drying the numerals are cut out and placed on the model. It is necessary to achieve as thin layer of paper as possible so I separate bottom layers of paper using knife and tweezers. Hi Doris, I don't say this time how WOW this is. You know it your self But I have one question, are you perhaps a teacher? When I was at school ( 10 years ago ) my teacher was always drawing at the black board and I never get the same has he did. I think this is the same. You show us something and I know for sure that my builds are not that awesome as yours. So if you are a teacher and still giving lessons where can i sign in???? How did you know? You are absolutely right, I really work as a teacher at high school and I like my work a lot.

john46 Posted March 29, 2013 Share #204 Posted March 29, 2013 I cannot imagine that you are less engaged to these children than to modeling, so you give them the best start to develop themselves to be ready for the future. Maybe even more important than building ships. With the most respect for what you are doing.

Because of that , that's why I thought you are a teacher. Your students are knowing that you build such beautiful things? They must be proud of you!

DORIS Posted April 4, 2013 Author Share #208 Posted April 4, 2013 (edited) Hello dear friends!I appreciate your comments a lot and thank you very much for your kind words. That´s a really pleasure for me. I feel also happy among our students and must say, that I like my work indeed. I enjoy the teaching when I am able to give them knowledge and useful experience for their life. A lot of them know about my hobbies and they often come to my office to see, what is new on models ( i show them pics in my computer). Some of them also watch my work on forums from home and occasionally ask me, how i make this or that..... Once I even showed them, how i shape the modelling clay, so i brought it to school and during breaktime i created a small horse - figure for them. And now Royal Caroline and new progress..... I have completely changed the draft scale to achieve realistic rendition. http://modelforum.cz/viewtopic.php?f=177&t=68385&start=480#p1436217 A lot of valuable information gives me a top expert and Captain with whom I also cooperated on Sovereign of the seas and HMS Victory.
