    Wow! I really like this one! It looks great.

    She’s a beauty! I could definitely see that one out cruising the streets.

    Doggone, Ken, that is beautiful!! Forgive me for what may be a dumb question, what about the masts, sails, rigging, etc? Is that the next phase? Are you even doing that? I’m a huge admirer of these wooden ships. I’ll never build one but I absolutely love them.

    That is one very clean build. She looks great!

    Now that is really cool! I like your take on this!

    Very nice, Ken! She really looks the part! Welcome aboard.

    You have done an outstanding job on this, Mario! She really looks good. The pics really show it off nicely.

    Very, very nice,Michael! Love the color combo of the exterior and interior, it plays very well together. Thanks for sharing!

    Just read the entire thread. A lot of great work going on here!

    Thanks, Alex! Actually, I totally agree with you regarding letting the paint gas out. This was Tamiya spray paint which, relatively speaking, drys and cures a little faster than other sprays. I do my body work at the beginning of the 24 hour build and get it under paint as soon as possible. I let it sit for a bit and then pop it in a dehydrator for most of the rest of the 24 hours.

    Very nice! I agree with you about it being nice to build a low stress, no hassle model every now and then.
  13. Nacho Z
    I know of the trick but never even thought of it. It is not too late to try that. I’ll have to think about that one.

    Just fantastic, Jason! You really did a nice job on this.
  15. Nacho Z
    Woohoo!!! I’m living vicariously through you, Chris! Oh man, please post tons of WIP updates. I truly am excited about this one!

    Thank you, Atin and Dennis, excellent advice! I honestly was surprised at how flat that German Gray came out. I shouldn’t have been, it is an XF paint after all…lol. I guess I’m not use to using flat paints. I thought about shooting some satin clear on the interior bits, but by the time I thought of it I had already unmasked everything and just didn’t want to remask it all again. Simply put, I was lazy. On the other hand I don’t believe it is going to be visible on the completed model. I do appreciate your input and I thank you for it.

    Thank you, Rich! It is always great hearing from you! Thanks, Mathias!

    Thanks, Sonny! I am a big fan of Gravity Colors - Spain. I’m also a big fan of Tamiya’s LP lacquer line of paints. I have to admit to being a little lazy on this build. It is not meant to be a contest winner, therefore I’m not sweating a lot of the details.

    I thought that might be you! I definitely enjoyed your enthusiasm for that last round revival, but I think I knew deep down that TMM was near the end. Folks would join and flat out not participate. The site is still there, I checked it today, just no movement. Who knows, maybe someday it will take off again.

    The very first response said it all; that thing is beyond coo! Well done!

    Another Monday, another update. During assembly of the drivetrain and rear chassis, I realized that I had mounted the top of the rear bulkhead incorrectly. I had to break it loose and reposition it. Other than that, this kit is falling together as expected. I did make one small concession on the drivetrain. The red of the valve covers should be textured and flat red. I didn't have any texture paint nor did I want to mess with it. I painted them gloss red and was done with it.

    Thanks, Tim! A slightly sad fact; if you are talking about TMM on ProBoards, I am the sole administrator of that forum. It just slowly died when the originator decided he didn't want to run it anymore. I did my best to keep it running but I guess it just ran its course. I think FB was the biggest reason for its demise. Thank you, David! Much appreciated, Larry

    Stunningly beautiful!
