    So, 7 months later I'm back - 3 months downunder, a month cycling and then a kitchen to build.  Re-engaged with some anchors and some stays.

    Little impression of the day.
    Also a builder ( Jan Zwart ) has make the Victory inside - out.
    Every deck has his own drader with all the figures in it.
    It's amazing to see and watch.

    While i'm waiting for the plates i have done a little bit more.
    Painted the stern fascia, windows and ornaments.
    Also the trophy of arms.
    You really need a steady hand but i'm happy with the result.

    Gsxdent,
     
    The foot ropes on the spars are going down en not horizontal.
    Now you can not walk on them to get the sails good
    For the rest keep on going!

    Thanks Ben,
     
    Don’t forget that with one hour driving we are in another country.
    It’s not that far.
    I have put her in a box and she was standing on the backseat with things beside her….
    And she survived 😃

    Andrew,
     
    I'm sorry but no pictures.

    Retirement......for you it's 5 weeks Mike ,for me a little bit longer 😞
    10 years ago you can ( have to ) get retired at 65......now it is 66 and 10 months for me.
    It depend in what year you are born.
    Yesterday was my 65 birthday so I know that I can go on for more then 1 1/2 year.
    But ok, it is what it is.
    The the update.....
    All deck furniture is on it.
    Bowsprit is done
    Lower masts are in place.
    Now I can go on with the shrouds and ratlines.
    Not so much as I use to be.

    Then a little update.
    All the bulwarks and stripes and more of that funny stuf is on it.
    Painted and happy.
    Last saturday we had a model meeting in the Netherlands from a Dutch forum.
    They helped me with the black stripes because they don't follow the bulwarks.
    So now I am happy 🙂

    Last tuesday it was the first evening at the modelclub.
    Because everybody wanted to see what i was doing i only glued 3 frames.....
    The rest of the time was giving information about the proces of building.
    A few things I'll be doing at home like painting.
    There are two doors.
    One is going behind a deck and the other one is going on the back of the stern.
    That's the one with the white color on it.

    Here is a new build.
    I will build this one at a hobby model club.
    So it don't go fast!
     
    Between 1997 and 1999 a replica of the Duyfken( Little Dove ) was built in Freemantle ,Australia to commemorate the first discovery of Australia.
    When she was in Holland I was visiting her and I always want to build her.
    And Kolderstok make a kit so at least her she is.
     
    Length 650 mm
    Width  250 mm
    Height 550 mm
     
    And then a few pictures of what was in the box
