Welcome Joseph, looks like you get up to some pretty interesting things looking at your website.

I thought of setting up a poll but after my last experience of doing so on here, probably not worth the time setting it up! I have done a set of round lanterns in 1:48 / 1:50 scale, will probably develop a few more lantern designs in the same scale, square lanterns, hexagonal ones etc. I was...

Etch for three types of round lanterns is drawn up. Need to do a final check and get it in the format for submission to the etching company. Started the day with the daunting task of adding some corrections that kept me awake thinking about them last night. Just a couple of small things I...

Hi Zoltan, Thanks for your interest. What I have decided to do is run off the sheet I need and also get a quote on a few copies. I guess the poll could read like a commitment to buy, which was not intentional. It was just meant to find out if people might be interested in purchasing the...

Great to see you starting on the Golden Hind Lawrence, I'll pull up a chair and hand out the rum.

Well done Donnie a fine job and completing the first planking is a milestone in any build.

Great progress Paul, I would go with the stain on the oars, just to match them in with the rest of the ship and give a more 'finished' look to them.

53 views, one person takes the time to vote lol. CAD work started on the etch:

If anyone wants a template made up in CAD just let me know, see here: http://www.shipsofscale.com/sosforums/viewtopic.php?f=77&t=1152 I can either do a plain template or one over a scan of the actual deck.

Did someone mention rum? :D

Thanks Brian, will keep you updated, will be a couple of weeks or so to get the sheet designed up and etched.

No feedback at all? The situation is I can get one sheet done, pay double the price myself to cover the photo tool. Repeats will be more economical so the sheets would be available to others at a reasonable price - in fact half the price I am paying myself! If there is no feedback I can not...

Brilliant documentation Donnie, I had stealers in exactly the same place on the Pearl at the stern, amazing how similar things are on your build.

Welcome Doug, This is a very friendly forum with a great bunch of modelers. Looking forward to your build log :handgestures-thumbup:

If you can post up if you are interested or not it would be great, then pick what you would pay in US $ which should be easy for us all to convert to. I have given the opportunity to tick up to three boxes, to cover interest and price people would pay either for just the etch sheet of 10...

That is a great solution Geoff, been thinking of making something so this job is a bit easier and this is the best idea I have seen.

Black Pearl and The Flying Dutchman vs Endeavor I love this scene from the movie At the World's End, you know already as a viewer what is going to happen but it is all timed to give a massive rush. Few people deserve their ship blown out from under them as much as Lord Cutler Beckett! It is...

Case is looking superb Lawrence :handgestures-thumbup:

That looks fab. Not seen many models like this before so will enjoy the log very much. Try changing Geoff, I went from aircraft to ships and the change has been brilliant for me. I'm sure there are a few more aircraft I will do, but doing my first ship has brought so many new challenges and so...

Thanks Donnie as a newbie to ships I struggle quite a lot with finding out what is available so I think the new forum will be a great help.
