DSiemens Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 That's beautiful. It's hard to tell from the photo's did you paint the hatches a single color or paint the individual slats. Either way it looks great. i'm not sure I've seen that technique before. 2 Quote
Jim Goodwin Posted January 13, 2017 Report Posted January 13, 2017 Very nice model of the Bluenose. If you can find a Canadian dime, mount that on the mouth of the bottle...it has the Bluenose on the tail's side. 5 Quote

A celebrated racingahip and fishing vessel,Bluenose under the comand Angus Walters became a provincial icon for Nova Scotia and an importrant Canadian symbol in the 1930s, serving as a working vesseluntil she was wrecked in 1946.Nicknamed the ''Queen of the North Atlantic'',she was leter commemorated by a replica,Bluenose originated as a nickname for Nova Scotians from as early as the lete 18th century.

DSiemens Posted February 1, 2017 Report Posted February 1, 2017 What material are you using for sails? Looks cloth like. Quote
IOAN Posted February 2, 2017 Author Report Posted February 2, 2017 Sails will be the spectacle wet napkin. It's a thin paper and endurance. Quote

DSiemens Posted February 2, 2017 Report Posted February 2, 2017 The words aren't wrong just not common. The picture helps clear it up though. No pun intended. I think we would say lens cleaners or lens wipes but yeah they would be very thin. I think they'll work nicely. 3 Quote
