I agree with Druxey.  It's a tough choice but you'll happier you did.

Hello Michael,

 

Hard decision you did but I can fully feel with you as I did the same with my build. Heart was bleeding but the current status of the build now makes me feel it was the right decision. If you are not happy with the result of the progress, make a step or two back to the beginning and do it again. It seems your laser samples matches perfectly. Well done!

Daniel

Cheers,

Daniel

 

In dockyard: HM Colonial Schooner for Port Jackson (scratch), HM Armed Vessel Bounty, HM Cutter Sherbourne

Next builds: HMS Victor 1797 & Gannet 1814 Cruiser class sloops, ship and brig rigged (scratch)
