Initially I thought that not painting this model it would look bleak. How wrong I was; using different kinds of wood, blackened chain plates, brass cannons and rigging in off-white(?) and dark brown/black paints an attractive image. My compliments.
 
Hello, dear modelers !

I've yesterday composed a new easy piano music :

Pastime (piano)

The vignette is Salvador Dali's "Soft Watch":

Indeed, music time is elastic, indefinitely reconfigurable

My English title, "Pastime", i.e. "Pastime" or "Passing Time"

Otherwise, for the Saint Philippe, the 0.25 mm rope that I received, turned out to be too thin (invisible to the my old eyes),
also had I to order another, of 0.50 mm, this exaggeration being subjective scale, essential for a correct look of my rigging Speechless

I just went thru your build top to bottom and I enjoyed it very much. You are definitely a master builder and a excellent problem solver. I will look foward to following to the very end
I am sure you have a lot of surprises for all of us
 
Hello boys,

Otherwise, during modelling at right hand, I wrote a new piano work with my left hand, it's the beginning time :

Walking (piano)

Walking as "Walking bass", which is an usual and simplified harmonic progression generaly used by the jazzmen
