Omega1234 reacted to Moxis in Clara May by Moxis - FINISHED - 1/48 scale - ketch - after David McGregor plans
Thanks a lot Tom!
Yes, only one month shipbuilding, but 60 years aeroplanes, cars, tanks, dollshouses etc. etc.
And I agree with you, now that I have been lurking here watching other people's projects, I wish that I wouldn't have started my own. So wonderful and beautifully built models that I hardly ever can do the same.
Ok, I will learn, and when me and my wife are satisfied to what we do, isn't that all that matters.
I too wish to you and everybody here who is reading my humble build, very happy holiday season!

Thanks Patric and Tom!
Now that I have gathered experience of ship model building about a month, I have to say that this is really nice hobby.
So was car and tank building too, but I think this is better.
And Tom, when I was nearing my retirement years, I purchased so many tools and machines I could, because I knew that after retirement there is no more money to spend on them.
I have been making models almost my entire life, so I knew that this is going to continue also on retirement. After all you must have hobbies when you have nothing more than free time. Without them life is going to be very boring.

As he said, his 14 year old plans leave something to be desire in the details. He would probably appreciate some input in that department especially since he has no ship building experience to draw on or even provide him with a heads up to trigger a question in advance.

This are the examples from two different cutters (Shenandoah and Alert) especially Alert seems to bee similar to Lady Nelson

Many thanks to - Mobsie - Don - Ed - Tom - Mike - Martin,....
for the nice appraisals to the final presentation of my model. I am so happy and also overwhelmed that this build finds such a resonance with my fellow modelers.....
Also many thanks to those who hit the "likes" button
Mobsie,
thank you, much appreciated, it was not my first ship, but the first 18.th century model square-rigged sailer, which I was not so sure if it can be done this way to please my set obligation when I started the project
Don,
Thanks for your Kind words
Ed,
Thanks Ed, and I`m returning a big compliment in credit with your beautiful built Clipper ships under way....
Tom,
Thanks to you, I`m glad you liked and enjoyed the build
Mike,
thanks a lot, a very charming compliment
Martin,
A very nice appreciation of yours, I`m happy that you like it
A happy and enjoyable Christmas season to all freinds and fellow builders and a wonderful and successful 2016

You did a fantastic job Nils. To bad you do not live near WI. I would love to see your Pegasus at Manitowoc.
