Time To Move On...

[refugee]

...to participating on SOS. I look forward to being an active member of this forum. Lightning does strike twice, apparently, since I also lost my contributions in MSW's previous debacle in 2013...however, I did save my extensive Build Logs from MSW. Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me. My avatar on MSW was "hollowneck." There may be some members here who may be familiar with my models and particularly my writing for both the Nautical Research Journal over the years and the resurrected Ships In Scale magazine (and blog). I'm excited to contribute to a legacy site with a new group of colleagues!

Wonderful diorama Refugee! If you hadn’t posted a picture of it on its plinth I might have assumed it was real!
Welcome aboard! I would pipe you aboard but, have no idea how those little pipes work…

I know Ron's work from MSW (it is Ron right?) - he did some amazing kit bashes/scratch builds over there. Hopefully he shares some of his other models.

Hello and welcome aboard. Your Camilla is beautiful.

Thank You. The small (agile) frigates of this era were beautiful ships to my eye, whether Royal Navy or French.

Welcome indeed - Love your new Avatar - we will always remember it
I think that I have seen images of this stunning example over there. I remember it "well" in quotes --
My Admiral questions my current memory haha

BUT add an image of the scale with your hand?? work beyond belief - (I think you exampled the scale back then)

In any your capture of the sea is also --- so perfect....

Cheers,
