Nils thank you very much for your kind words, thats nice of you. You also commented in my post in the Gallery and I thank you also for that.

 

Am already making a short log video of Hermione and as next I already have a kit bought from Japan, Sir Wiston Churchill from Woody Joe, which I plan/would like to build according to the experience gained this past few years building ship models. It has to become my best build -I hope and wish-, although my great love -I think- will always be L'Hermione!

Beautiful work Messis. You did an excellent job on you first tries on both coppering the hull and filling the sails. It has been a great pleasure sharing this build with you. The Summer here was so terribly hot and humid I had to close down my own shipyard. It's just changed this week to being more seasonable so hopefully the better weather and your fine example of a finished ship will spur me back into action.

Great job on the model and video. 

I like the music selection as well.

Yours is the 1st completed Hermione that I know of.

This helps to keep me motivated to finish mine.

@Bertu and @Wallace  thank you guys for your nice comments. Still playing with the I idea of redoing the build, but now knowing better, trying to avoid this  time  all the small mistakes I did on it the first time.
