  1. I saw your Constitution log. Very impressive! It looks like you hadn't installed the trysail mast yet. As of yet, i am working on the mizzen shrouds. All i have left to do in terms of hull work is a couple pinrails, cleats, ladders, and the ship's wheel. After that, it's time for sails!! I hope your "friday" is going well!!
  2. Check out Woodrat, his scratch builds are truly museum quality. He's the best i've ever seen at that.
  3. I was very impressed by the masts and yards in this kit- They bent and refused to break! overall, the plastic quality is top notch, something heller could use to learn.
  4. Of course you're so good at scratchbuilding wood. You switched from plastic to wood at my age. I won't be seventeen for long, mate. Even at my age, you were proving yourself to be the best. A list of places that may want your ships: https://www.historyhit.com/guides/maritime-museums-to-visit-around-the-world/
  5. Ok guys, let's play "Never Have I Ever", I'll start: Never have i ever seen such a cop-out excuse from a model company not to include rigging instructions.
  6. Thank you all for your kind words! The only bit of "luck" here, it would seem, is the insane find of this gem on Ebay. You can't get the kit anywhere else, at least from here in the States, i found. I look most forward to asking nagging questions and advancing my knowledge in model shipwrightery.
  7. Hahahahaha! Warhammer is something i would very much enjoy if i could afford a 3d printer. I used to buy and paint the models until they became too expensive for sustainability.
  8. I am new here, and i guess this is a rite of passage. I am seventeen years old, from California, USA. I have been making model ships since the eighth grade, but still have a world to learn. My introductory model will be the 1/96 scale USS United States, by Revell. Wish me luck!
  9. Absolutely phenomenal, dude. The more i see your work, the more convinced i am that you should make some sort of living off of this. Amazing ship.
  10. Never have i seen such an incredible scratch-build in my entire life. Scale it up, and you have a real round-ship. Amazing! Medieval museums would thank their lucky stars to have such a model.
