    S.Coleman got a reaction from Bill Morrison in Friesland by Alex K. - FINISHED - Mamoli - scale 1:75   
    Very nice indeed. I have also built her. My build log is on here as well. Check it out if you have time. Yours already looks better than mine. I really enjoyed this kit. Hope you dont mind me posting a pic of her on here.  Color of your ornamentation looks great. Good job

    Some seriously stunning rigging going on there. Looks great. Your rope coils look the part. I hope i can be able to do that.

    Stern windows this time! The kit supplys you with the unsightly metal cast windows which i defiantly wont be using. So instead om making my own out of 1mm×1mm stock and then make my own glass for them.

    The windows came out great. What are you looking to use as glass? This micro kristal klear works good.

    Stunning job and great painting job.  Looks like fun but I’m not to crash hot with plastics. I see you are from NZ too. I’m originally from Otago. Best of luck with the rest of your build.

    Hey all. Some more work has been done and progress is good.  Finished planking the hull below the wales and added the stem post, keel and about to add the stern post. 
    One rubbing strake has yet to be added about two plank rows above the wales.
    This whole thing needs a good sand very carefully because the veneer strips are only 1mm thick. Some touch ups to do but im pleased with it so far. Hope you enjoy.

    Tightbond PVA would be your best bet.  You can do little bits at a time instead of painting the whole deck in glue and laying it all down.

    Don't worry guys. Im still building.  Slowly getting it done.  I've gone down the path of the planks termination at the stem. Actualy working out great. Mapping each plank for fitting and the lie of it. Checking and re checking.
