Those are beautiful! I'd get some but I don't have that kind of talent. V/R, Jack

Beautiful work Julian, and they make a gorgeous scene together!

Excellent paint job; but the uniformity of the bases lets the ship models down. Have a look at some ariel photographs of tall ships cutting through the sea.

To be fair he could be using the Langton pre-molded bases. On the table you are not likely to be looking at them all in a line anyway. As usual great work J.

MJS you are an inspiration, absolutely stunning work as usual. Care to share your methods for rigging?
ModelJShip	05 Feb 2016 4:39 p.m. PST
Thank you all your comments… Now when I have a little more time I'll finish the second part of a tutorial where I will share with pictures assembly processes and rigging and running rigging.

Admirable work indeed. Without wishing to detract from that in any way, I do know what Cpt. Haddock means about the sea bases; one the hardest things to achieve convincingly on any ship model. Along with MJS's work, I'm also a great admirer of J White's work and have always liked the way he does his sea bases, which I believe are Langton's; TMP link An interesting comparison I think.
