My first and second builds were a simple matter of learning and further practice.
Both models seen here were created in just over a year.
The five page set of plan sheets found online.
First build…
July 3, 2008
Completed - approx. 600 hours
Scale - 1:120th
Bow view.
Bow view showing carving.
Not too pleased with this stern carving.
My first shroud and ratline rigging.
At this point, realizing I needed more practice, so I decided to build her again….slightly larger.
November 24th 2008.
After building this model twice, for practice, I am ready to take on something more advanced.
A friend recently sent me a full set of plan sheets for the HMS Victory.
Wish me luck.
