Very nice. Looks like a lot of fun to build.

Anything new, Joe?

JoeRugby · April 02, 2015, 06:08:57 AM

Actually yes...masts have been made, just working on the fighting tops. There won't be any t'gallant masts though - scale too small for them or rather me to manage...all cannons and carronades have been cast as well...

Awesome, looking foreward to new pictures.

Here is the progress to date:
I was able to figure out some sort of t'gallant mast set up. Please excuse the dust.
The upper deck and masts are just dry fitted for the photo...tons of work remains as well as heaps of touch up work.

Very nice. The little details are really starting to add up and make this a real museum piece !
