Blue Ensign got a reaction from billocrates in HMS Pegasus by Blue Ensign - FINISHED - Amati/Victory Models - 1:64 scale
Thanks once again Guys, there will be one more photo - when she is encased and placed in the spot reserved for her.
In the meantime I am using the huge collection of photo's amassed over the past seven years to put together a large format 120 page photo book record of the build.

B.E., I did not have the time to look in for a while, so I just realized that your Pegasus is finished. Congratulations! What a fantastic model! You did an outstanding job! And the same is true for your build log. It will serve a lot of modelers as a guide when building their own models. At least I know it is and will be true for me. Thank you!
Best regards,
Thomas

Brilliant work, obviously B.E. A very richly earned Congratulations. You must be extraordinarily proud. I look forward to milking your log and the knowledge contained therein when I pull the Peg down from the shelf and get her underway.
Thanks for sharing your journey with all of us.

John,
thank you for your nice compliment,
much appreciated
here is a small update on the bridge wing cabs (raw version)
The last days I was having trouble with my PC in booting on from the moment I switched on.... (it would`nt show anything),... it started with 1/2 hour, then 45 min, then 2 hours.
Fortunately I saved up my old monitor with square formate, and installed it instead, and "Bingo" the screen was there again, otherwise I could`nt do any more updates..., looks as if it was only a monitor issue (hopefully)
Thanks also to all the "likes" for clicking on....

Glassing like at the middle panel
made from 0,3 mm brass sheet
a bit of filler material to smoothen the bulwark joint ( not sanded yet )

Blue Ensign got a reaction from Janfran in HMS Pegasus by Blue Ensign - FINISHED - Amati/Victory Models - 1:64 scale
My four year build log has alas fallen victim to the latest system upgrade, and like the ship she represents is now presumed lost, as Pegasus was in 1777.
To re-instate all the information contained within the orginal log which ran for over 100 pages is a bit of an ask but where I can pick up the information quickly I will include it in this replacement log with priority being given to specific aspects where I have modified the basic kit, to produce the model which is now allbut finished.
My log which was first posted in 2013 lacked much of the earlier stages of the build which had been going since 2010, and this revision will include aspects of the earlier build stages which may assist those embarking on a new Swan build adventure.
I would like to thank all those members who have shown interest in my build over the past four years, and for the many appreciative comments and 'likes' I received. I still can't believe that over 257,000 visits were made to the log, but it is nice to think that it was of use to the membership.
Also thank you to those who have messaged me with kind words about the loss of the original log, and with offers of help.
Hopefully this revised version, risen from the ashes, will continue to provide useful information to the membership, particularly those involved with Swan Class Sloops.
