NORSKE LOVE - Billing Boats 1:75 scale

[Dean62]

A little progress on the other wall…made 4 panels and one coat of arms…


Did I say it was smaller than your finger tip!
I must be mad to carve these…lol.

 

[Dean62]

First I sketch on a piece of wood…


Then carve…


Then stain and paint black in shield…

Laborious work. Yes, we are crazy, Quick question: to me it looks like "FS" on the emblems. What would that stand for?

Actually it is a F5 and I have no idea what it stands for? That’s a good question!

 

[Dean62]

Finished another wall…

 

[Heinrich]

Very nice!

 

[Dean62]

Very nice!

Thank you!
I sure did add a lot to get here…lol. Oh well, at least I remember what I did so I can build the upper wall.

I did some research and it is the king at the time the ship was built… F5 = Frederick V

Dear Dean
no doubt that you are doing wonderful work with this model, it's looks beautiful

 

[Heinrich]

It may have taken a while but at least you are making progress.

 

[Heinrich]

And very nice research. It makes complete sense and all adds to the history.

At my age I find I need to jot a lot more than I used to.
Lucky you...

Well…considering everything I went through, I can’t forget…lol.
Added columns, added trim at the bottom, paint black in inset area, add pear wood panels and carved coat of arms.
Now I can’t forget because I just listed it!

Your list is a snap shot in time as I am sure that you will have future microdetailing that will come to your mind and skilled hands. Rich (PT-2)

I think your panels improved by leaps and bounds by a) the way you decided to model them, b) the engraved coat of arms and c) the black backdrop of the panels.

Yep, writing stuff down generally improves remembering things you don't want to forget.

And again, it's o'dark thirty in good old Texas... Time for a nightcap??
