You do excellent work Roma. The ship is looking amazing! Love the look of that bow decoration. Whoever left the dislike has no idea about building model ships, Your work is amongst the best I have seen. Some people are just toxic.

Beautiful work Roma ! Love the weathering and dry brushing. Good call leaving the open railing for boarding. She is coming along so nicely. I don't believe I have ever hit a 👎... I've offered differing perspectives and approaches (once a respectful rapport has been created) ... but not 👎. Actually seems rude, and certainly not aligned with the type of behavior I would expect from those in our hobby. Shame really... Anyway, I enjoy that you take privilege with your creativity and build for your pleasure... not historical accuracy. For those who are historically accurate modelers... I respect their discipline and the time they dedicate to research... But I, like yourself it would seem, build for my pleasure and my satisfaction. Thank you for sharing in the manner that you do... You are valued and appreciated. Be well 😊

Great Work, nicely explained, I like the weathering effect on the hull, ignore the negative thumbs down, if people haven't taken the time to explain why they don't like something, there opinion doesnt count 😂

Thank you my friend 😉

Roma I like to watch your videos. I think your ship looks amazing. do not pay attention to people who dislike everything let them show what they can build. looking forward to the next stage of the build. I like it you build the model in the way you see it.

[@homeharbour6238]

Thank you sir😉 next step is very awesome)) I was waiting for this from the beginning)))

Hi, Roma. Hope you are well. I have been moving along slowly and carefully with ESSEX. I have a question concerning the installation of the FALSE KEEL parts. You describe using white glue(?) with push-pins to secure the first keel part to the transom. The Occre instruction videos illustrate using white glue to attach all false keel parts. I am concerned about the strength of using white glue to attach the pieces of the false keel. Would you recommend using white glue for all pieces, or would it be better to use super glue, considering that the false keel might experience higher stress and that super glue might provide a stronger bond? Please advise. I’m really enjoying your videos

[@homeharbour6238]

Thank you very much for your comment and I'm really glad that you like my videos. Hope you enjoy your Essex... For those parts I use only white glue "could give a drop of super glue in some random places" but I prefer the white glue and give it a time to completely dry. If you have more questions, just text me 😉

@@homeharbour6238 Very good, Roma. I’ll follow your recommendation for white glue with a couple random super glue spots mixed in. I will also plan on sending you a photo of my completed hull assembly once it is done which uses some of your ideas (especially of the back gallery). ✌
