Nice idea, but in a little bit bigger scale. I think 1/32 would be nice

Mark. I think the L'Orient is a nice but really huge model also in a smaller scale. Don't blow the model if shes to big , as Nelson did in Aboukir. I like the Roebuk. Until I got the drawings from Alex Anson I thought a longer time of building her in the future.

Very nice work, Paul. It's allways fun to have a look in your log and follow your progress. -
Dan, as allways, very clean and crisp work. I like your idea with the cut outs and think that I will copy this, if I build a section.
-
Your model is half the scale than my sloop, but I think it will be nearly the same size. I wish you a good start in your shipyard.
-
Thanks Hakan. After the build of the half model I planned the next steps. ... but I made a careless mistake during shapeing the stem. In the moment I fix it and than I hope to continue the log
-
Really wonderful, Druxey. In 100 years or so (and than I am very very old) I hope that I can also build my models so good.

Tom, I have the drawings from Alex for the Sphynx and since this week for the Anson. A few years agos before I start my Swan class sloop I thought a longer time to build HMS Sphyx as POF model after Alex drawings, At that time I don't have enough knowledge to reconstruct the frames. I don't know the original drawings so I don't know where he got the information for the swivel gun mounts on his drawing. I don't found information about installed swivel guns in Winfield, but I think that she had them until 1794. At this time the ship got carronades.
-
In my opinion they are the best source together with the original drawingfor your ship to build a model of this class
-
Tom, do you know the fantastic drawings of Alexander for the Sphynx?
-
Welcome back and good luck with your third attempt.

It's not model building, it's an art. Every step so clean and crisp. There I have a lot to learn

Congrats for a really beautyful model. And thank you very much for your build log. I -and I am sure a lot of other MSW users also- got a lot of information which is very helpful for my own projects. I hope that your will start another project in the near future.

Congrats, Siggi. I love the coloring of your model. It's exactly what I like to do on my sloop. I hope you show us a lot of pictures of the finished model in her case.
