i am very impressed with the use of the wood in your works.
you working so very well.
what kind of wood do you using?

[Song Jung Gun]

hello j.k.song.you always amaze me,your work with wood is very skillful.i never see any wood filler in any of your carving.if it was me there would be lots of pieces in the garbage and lots of filler fixing slip ups.

Hi Russel!
I do not use wood filler. It is required precise working ,because no paint.
Thank you!

Hi JK Song I am really impressed by your timber working skills . Masts/armoured towers such as those seen on Roma are taxing to build using user friendly materials such as styrene , brass or litho but you have achieved a standard of works with wood that matches all other materials.

Long way from being finished - okay so I was very wrong - when I first followed the cruise liner, many straight lines and although difficult to to build, not as complicated as building a war-ship. So, very much looking forward to seeing how this Roma developed over time, and I must say I am very impressed not only at the mastery of workmanship but also the shape that's slowly beginning to form, wooden ships are generally a no no on any scale model site, usual large clumpy lumps of vast over-scaled wood which I normally wouldn't give a second glance too.
I've said it before and I'll say it again '' Master Song Jung Gun '' I believe you're not so much a builder of models, but an artist which is an infrequent and rare thing to find.
I'm not letting you off the hook that easily, I'll have some question's for you later, and in the mean time. Carry on the good work !

[Richard J OMalley]

I love the lines of Roma compaired to her sisters as she had more sheer because of the higher bow . Could you show how you do this breathtaking work .

[Neptune]

I thought I saw the top of your skills and workmanship with the cruise ship you did, but this seems to beat it after all! Great job so far!!!
