WOW, very nice build. Great idea on painting decal paper - I never would have thought of that!

Everything went fast in the rigging. Short a few correct size blocks so used closest thing . Next will be the anchors and boats. I have enjoyed this kit. Showed the ship to my wife and she said no sails and don't give it away.

Congratulations! Your work looks like you spent 4 years on it, not 4 months.

Four months... are you sure you're not an alien with say three extra arms growing out of your back? Either that or you didn't sleep for four months? I'd love to see a video of you working on it, there would have been just a blur of arms and tools and flying wood chips :) It's beautiful, have never seen that quality achieved with such incredible speed.
