    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.

    Thank you all for the kind comments.

    I wasnt planning on it.  I dont think I have enough room in my shop for all the wood that I will need for those.  They would also be ridiculously expensive.
     
    I will make the plans available however in short order.  It would be best to have some uniqueness to everyones presentation as well.  It will nice to see how everyone displays theirs.

    Well, hearty congratulations at the end of a long trail, Chuck. This is a lovely prototype of your kit. Hopefully it will spark more interest in the 18th century aesthetic that these ships represent and inspire other model makers. Well done indeed.

    Your build is a fine example to follow and I have used your Winnie build as a guide to my own efforts on Sphinx .
     
    Congratulations on a job very well done, your artistry is much to be admired.
