Leonid I like your words. A good saying. But my ship is not THAT expensive

BB I hope you are doing fine and your health is still improving. I can see you have been very productive the last year. And yes the bubble wrap sea was an experiment. The big waves should in fact have been foreground, the small waves background instead, all for the perspective effects... but in the foreground the bubble plastic was so not-convincing that I turned it around. A good epoxy sea should have been much better. But I liked the spectacular light effects, bot reflexing flairs as translucent light fall, too much to do the photographing all over again.

Well thats not up to me to decide and compared to countless plastic model kits my resin cast work is pretty rough... though lively
. But when it comes to stuffing an ancient ship model with amphora cargo, I think you could be right.
@Caruana: Hello Ray its great to hear from you again and I love your painted medieval bowmen!
Kelmi, Kostis and Santi, thanks for your words.
