Really wonderful carvings

 

[Herman]

You did a great job with the carving of those 4 statues, Herman.
Regards, Peter

Thank you Peter. I am satisfied with the result. On the finished model they can only be seen through opened gunports, but still I made them to the best of my abilities now. And a good way to improve my carving skills for all the carvings on the stern and galeries.

Really wonderful carvings

Thank you Christian.

Outstanding, Herman! And done very quickly too! Those would have taken me days and days...and still not have come out as nice as yours have!

To make them all the same by hand is so difficult, but who cares if there are differences when the outcome is superb.

Thank you Paul. Well, the first one took me several evenings, “designing” and carving simultaneously. The next three one day, and reworking all four of them this afternoon.

Thank you Stephan for your generous words. You are quite right, let’s embrace the differences of handwork.

Really lovely carved works, Herman. Faces are so difficult to do, and your ladies have full dance cards ahead of them.
