  1. Welcome!
  2. Thank you all for the comments and the likes! Currently working on the shot garlands. The big picture is that I am working on finishing the Upper Gun Deck. However, I am doing the same as before and since I need shot garlands on the spar/quarter decks, I am going to make those too. Thanks for stopping by and stay healthy.
  3. Welcome! I am sorry to hear about your brother. You have my condolences. I have not built either kit, although both look like nice kits. I also enjoy 1/35 armor. I just bought a BT-7 by Zvezda.
  4. The Yankee Hero is coming along nicely. I have only built one solid hull kit myself, a Model Shipways Sultana. The hardest part for me was getting the hull done.
  5. Nicely done! I made my first deadeyes for my Prince de Neufchatel. I used a dowel rod and cut slices after cutting the groove. I drilled the holes last. I keep seeing these yacht America builds. Eventually, I am going to end up building one.
  6. In Bjorn Landstrom’s “The Ship”, there is a two page picture of Victory under full sail that is clear enough and precise enough that I intend to use it to make my sails (I’ll have to modify the dimensions slightly to account for variances between my model and the picture).
  7. Welcome!
