Were you born with a chisel in your hand ? 
If you are not living on the edge then you are taking up to much space

Re: 1/200 Roma
That doesn't look to shabby at all, skill is something you're either born with, or something you have to learn, and while its nice to say you're a common man, many people would love to have half of your skills.
Will you be selling this on, or displaying it somewhere, I should imagine this is quite large, as before, will you paint this natural wood work of art ? Or varnish allowing the grain to come out ? Just wondering if you'd ever build a drednought or 1888 Chinese battleship Ting Yuen I guess no one has pestered you yet about making some short films for Youtube ? Just a thought.

You are real my fan from the 'Sun Princess'.
This model is 124cm long. I do not paint or vanish my models.
Maybe you like a drednought and Chinese Ting Yuen. But I am interesting battleships in W.W.-II. I have 11 ship models( wood model)and could'nt sell. People call too low price.
So,I keep all in my house. your song jung gun

Re: 1/200 Roma
Outstanding craftsmanship on every level. When I see your work in wood it makes me want to give up on building boats and take up knitting
Incredible work.
Thank you for sharing your talent with us all.

Re: 1/200 Roma
Song,
The more I study the pictures of your work the more I am amazed. Most of us watching couldnt do that kind of work if somebody cut all the parts out for us let alone have it come out anywhere near as straight and perfect as your work. It has already been said but you are an artist, and a very talented one at that.
Thank you once again for sharing your incredible talent and workmanship with us.
Have you ever considered putting your work in a professional art gallery so the public can see them or perhaps even pay you what you wanted for one? The reason I ask is that several companies in the Phillipines sell models world wide that are not even CLOSE to what you create and are paid thousands of dollars for each. I can only imagine with your talent and craftsmanship what you could do in that kind of venue.
Impressed as always,
Paul
