takes me back over 30 years ago when I built this kit......i have just dusted down my Victory...she is still going strong.
-
good build so far.....in England we have a saying "going on a jolly"....ie a night out for a good time or an adventure....this is where the saying comes from, the jolly boat.

takes me back to my corel Greyhound build....the instructions were at best unfathomable but somehow I made it through and it is not a bad looking ship when completed.

top rail in fitted.....The deck fittings have not been glued into their final positions yet, just getting a view of how it will look soon if i progress at this speed.
-
second planking now completed....needs a good final sanding and some small gaps filling. Planksheers and columns fitted ready for the top handrail
-
a couple of first planks and the gun port openings......
-
ships boat supports. second planking is also nearing completion....pics later.
-
ships boat....I found a tiller from a previous kit that i have used. Not accurate to the plans but will suffice.

morning from the north of England...

Afternoon from the North of England....

very nice......i must add this kit to my future builds, although I have another 3 on the shelf after I have finished Endeavour.
-
the hull will get a good fine sanding and gaps will be filled....I am going to go for a water based satin gloss for the hull, enough to bring out the colour of the wood but not overkill.

i would imagine most first builds get stuffed up in some way......i stuff something up on every build but i then see it as part of the soul of the build.....I hate to see everything perfect.....my Bellona is full of rubbish but like you i finished it.....it is full of errors, mistakes, down right rubbish but it makes her what she is.....part of me is in every build.... My latest build Endeavour is full of scrapes, nicks and dents....I leave them in as it adds to the character of the finished build....it shows her journey to completion.
