some nice looking Sole in that catch of yours Bernhard............and the boat is beautiful.................it must be lovely to work with such fine timber. are you going to varnish it or just linseed oil and wax it.

Hello Bernard, all I can say is "Wow", a great piece of realism.
I have a question for you but it is "off thread", I have just finished a Billing Mary Ann fishing boat which I would like to add more detail but cannot find any full size pictures on-line. Can you point me at any please? I am just after pictures.
best regards Roy

Absolutely breathtaking. This is proper modelling - what's that 'messing about with bits of wood' that I've been doing for fifty years?

Hi Bernard, I tried that and am at that general level, I am looking for some Danish historic boat photos of that period, circa 1950's. The only full size photo is on the kit box!
Are there any preserved 45 ton North sea fishing boats or dedicated web sites? I hope they did not get sawn up like many fishing boats did some years ago.
best regards Roy

Superb model!

ballastanksian · « **Reply #21 on:** April 24, 2018, 09:34:01 PM »

There are so many good things to see in the photographs Bernhard!

I love the workshop. It has lots of history about the room. The model is excellent in all aspects from the detail to the weathering. It looks old and used, but not overdone to look hazardous to sail in.

Finally, the fisherman in the bow looks the most enthusiastic and determined fisherman in the world! Do you sculpt the figures or are they commercial items? They look unique to me.

Bernhard · « **Reply #22 on:** April 25, 2018, 06:40:17 AM »

ohhh Manyyyy Thanks for your kind words,,i find the figure on ebay,and sometimes i do some work on them ,or just use them as they are,,this 2 i have let them be
