Michiel Posted June 18, 2014 Author #122 Posted June 18, 2014 Thank for the appreciation ladies and gentlemen, It is the most challenging carving up to now, all the previous stuff was mostly cutting a bit of relief into a 2d picture, real 3d is a lot harder..

Michiel Posted June 19, 2014 Author #123 Posted June 19, 2014 I have this strange world view that every body know this ship since I'm mostly posing on a rather small forum where 5 people are building it. For those that don't this is a picture of the original model, showing what I am trying to achieve.

SawdustDave Posted June 20, 2014 #125 Posted June 20, 2014 Michiel, as much as I enjoy doing a little carving, I do not think I would take this one on.....even at 1:50 scale. Anxious to see how you pull this off sir. From what I see, you certainly have the talent to do a great job. My hat is off to you sir.

amateur Posted June 21, 2014 #127 Posted June 21, 2014 (edited) 5 people? Andy, you, me, and ?? I guess you're also going to do the inside carvings? What surprised me at the Original model, was that the carvings are rather cruse, and that the Original builder did not quite try to use his paint thin: quite a lot of detail is lost in the amount of paint.

Michiel Posted June 21, 2014 Author #128 Posted June 21, 2014 (edited) most of the carvings of the cabin are already done, only the door on starboard needs to be completed.

Michiel Posted August 29, 2014 Author #142 Posted August 29, 2014 (edited) That was a completely new challenge in ship building for me. Painting the city view on the hollow bottom section of the rear of the ship: The next step will be finishing the four figurines that will come on top. A lot of carving there..

amateur Posted August 29, 2014 #144 Posted August 29, 2014 (edited) The wonders of google translate.... 'Openstaande' in dutch means 'not closed' (you can have an 'openstaande deur', which means that is is not closed....), or it refers to bills not yet payed (an 'openstaande rekening' means an 'unpaid bill') Google should in this case translate 'outstanding' with 'uitmuntend', 'voortreffelijk' or 'buitengewoon', which are all accepted (but apparently not by google....) ways of expressing admiration. Which, I have to admit without any reservation, this carving and painting deserves. Jan Edited August 29, 2014 by amateur Ian B, Piet and Michiel 3 Quote

hlipplaa Posted September 2, 2014 #149 Posted September 2, 2014 very nice looks even better when unpainted to be honest. Wish i could carve like that i made my lion from a plastic one i cut a head off. Michiel 1 Quote Halve maen 1608 (rigging and improvements to be finished) Enterprise 1799 Building currently
Michiel Posted September 3, 2014 Author #150 Posted September 3, 2014 (edited) thanks a lot guys, I do agree a bit that the single pieces may look better unpainted. I'm however trying to reproduce the total look and feel of the, brightly painted, original ship. I prefer that over a more stylized version without paint.
