Dilbert55 reacted to Heinz6672 in HMS Victory by Heinz746 - Caldercraft
Robert and Ian, thank you so much!
I feel ashamed, as you exaggerate with your compliments.
I only try to do my best and use the prefabricated parts as rarely as possible. There are some things that I can not do and I can not find any solutions. Just in the bow there are places, which differ from the original. I am not satisfied with this, even if the result looks nice, it is not a copy of the original. And that's what it's all about in model building.
Therefore, my Victory is truly unique. But certainly not the best.
But I am happy, if I can give some inspiration back. Because I get Inspiration from this forum for years!
Thank you all!!!

Do you have an estimate of how many cycles (up/down) your model may experience per/day at the museum? My parents would have had to drag me away from something like this when I was a kid and now that I'm retired, my wife has that job.

I'm just a bit ahead of you on the same kit which I think was recently updated by Artesania. Perhaps it previously had a second (cover) planking? It's the first kit (3rd for me) that came with digital instructions on a DVD and was a challenge to plank knowing there wasn't any error covering second layer. Currently deciding if I continue to finish or paint.
