Ryland,
 
Also good to hear you're still here and Rusty as well.  I do miss the field trips to modeling events and the people.  Is the event in Richmond still attended by your group?
We have moved from Aston to Nottingham, PA four years ago and now moving again to a 55+ community in Delaware.  Time to downsize and I don't want to schelp all this stuff again including the finished models.  I wish I could find a good home for these (Syren and HMS Fly).  I never rigged the Bellerophon, so that won't be bad to move.
 
Stay safe and well in these unusual times,
Len

Bob,
Not for personal misfortune, but have moved on from modelshipmodeling to drawing portraits mostly as my new pasttime.  I will post individual books and items as I find time to do so.
Take care,
Len

I am selling all my ship model books and items accrued while in this hobby.  I will be posting these items, but for now I have a set of David Antscherl Swan books Vol 1,2 and 4 w/plans for sale as a set.  I just noticed book 4 does have minor water damage at top at binder 1"x2" section (picture attached). I will accept any reasonable offer plus shipping.  PM with any inquiries for this or asking, if I have a book you are interested in which I may have.
 
Best regards,

Last Update:  
 
I have made an executive decision and am nixing the rigging this build with option to at a later date.  This month marks the beginning of my fourth year on this build and I just need to start something new.  I have added stubs for the masts and bow (not glued in).
 
Since my previous update, I have added the stunsail booms to the channels, repainted and mounted the figurehead, bumpkins and safety rails, assembled and mounted the three stern lanterns.
The figurehead I have deviated from the plan suggested colors and tried to duplicate the colors of an actual Bellerophon figurehead from a web site that shows the head.
The stern lanterns needed an addition modification.  The cast cap was too small to cover the five sides therefore I added 1/32" piece of wood and trimmed.  The bottom cast piece was ok.  I also cut clear plastic windows on each side. 
There's a few additional details I wanted to add, but not at this time.
It's been a long mostly enjoyable ride and not sure I could ever attempt such a long build again.
Thanks for all those who looked in and will in the future.  Hopefully, something useful was picked up positive or negative on how to.  Will probably post additional pix in the gallery.
 
Mark this project as complete.
 
Take care and happy modeling,
Len
