Nice to see this legendary kit assembled by an expert like you. I think you are right about this model being done to go along with an HO scale diorama (1/87). It will be interesting to see what you do with it. Yves- 63 replies

This is getting insane..... 1/700 parts on a 1/350 model.... Where will he stop ? Yves

Beautiful craftsmanship! I love the way you explain the assembly and construction process. And your workshop has this "essence" of the old and traditional wood shops where masterpieces are being created. I will follow with a lot of interest as I love the subject, having started an Emma C Berry kit a long time ago (and never finishing it). Yves

Lovely boat. I can smell the tide, the algae, the shell fish and that wonderful atmosphere of South Brittany. Well done. Yves

This model is adorable. Not trying to hi-jack your thread, but here are a few pictures of Eric and his daughter Marie on board of Pen-Duick: Marie is doing a 4 years trip around the world on the mythical boat. She has the intensity of her father....to say the least. Yves

Excellent summary of the benefits of CA adhesives. CA adhesives were primarily created for surgery applications, when sewing and sutures are not practical. Yves

I truly enjoy watching these "Hybrid" models come up to life. Yves PS: Hybrid = Plastic/Wood

Beautiful hull weathering. You can almost smell the old rusty iron, decaying slowly. You truly are an artist. Yves

Great job. Eric Tabarly would have been proud of you, for folding these sails. Yves

Yes, I will be following too. As a kid I still remember the excitement when I could buy the Renwall Kit of that incredible submarine, in France. It probably was in the late 60's or very early 70's. I spent quite a few weeks putting it together and the final result was very impressive: it was a big model. I still remember the little spring allowing one of the Ballistic Missile to be shot from a tube..... a gimmick, but very pleasant to a young teenager. That model actually triggered a passion for Submarines that did not leave me until a few years ago. I have collected lots of kits and books and was once a member of the Submarine Committee. Yves

So funny, you would be from Annecy. I grew up mostly in the Pyrennees but would spend time on the Mediterranean coast (I lived 7 years in Nice) and occasional trips to Brittanny. I went to Annecy a couple of times, to ski in the Alps. Yves

I am amazed how you work with brass and solder. You truly are an artist. This model is going to weight a significant amount when completed, with all these metal parts. Yves

What? Jack? You are thinking about going to Tuscany without even taking a little kit with you? That is very surprising....😉 Yves

Beautiful model of a fishing boat. I remember seeing some of these boats during my childhood, in France. Yves
