Chuck got a reaction from Mr Whippy in HMS Winchelsea - FINISHED - 1764 - by Chuck (1/4" scale)
Almost 5 years to the day....she is finally finished. Always a bit anti climactic. Thank you all for following along all these many years. For those of you building her, I hope you are having as much fun with it as I did.
Well here goes the final pics. The top picture is of course of the Winnie contemporary model which inspired me as well as the Amazon. I hope I did them justice. Everyone should build a Georgian style model of an English frigate at least once in their lifetime.

You are welcome. I will be the first to admit that I take forever to design and produce these projects. I cant rush through them. So many kit mfgs seem to announce the availability of new kits every few months. That is something I can never do. This next project will be a bit of wait. Hopefully worth it. POF projects have triple the parts and more complexity. I prefer quality over quantity any day.
I am also trying out some new design features to make it easier to build.

Chuck: All I can say.. is keep at it. Just delved into the first dozen pages of chapter 1 of the Winchelsea project and I can say I am definitely looking forward to this project!

I join the voice of others congratulating you for completing the project. What a spendid model and how fun it is to build it! Your ability to come up with creative solutions at difficult and critical parts of the build is quite remarkable. I still have many months (years?) in front of me to reach the finish line. Hopefully, in time to embark on a new journey with your forthcoming POF project.
Kudos again.

Chuck: Thanks for the "keep at it" approach. There are often so many promises out there for a final product and the completion date keeps getting pushed back. Its nice to see the follow through.

Chuck, all I can say that this is not only a masterpiece from a master shipbuilder, but also a true work of art. You guide others and make these kind of ships possible to build for other model shipbuilders.
Just great leadership is all I can say. I'm sure you raised the bar with this one! Deep respect!
