Julie Mo Posted October 14, 2016 #332 Posted October 14, 2016 Just realized I haven’t shown an overall picture in some time. So here it is. Almost done but not quite. Bob That's a beauty, Bob. Very nice! I love the detail and realism. But are you sure you didn't take a picture of the real thing and Photoshop it to a small scale?

captainbob Posted October 23, 2016 Author #334 Posted October 23, 2016 Completed Yes, the Pequot is now finished. If you look closely at the pictures on the Pequot web site you will probably find details that are missed. This is because I could not find enough information on those parts. Some details I know are not correct but it was better to put something in those places than to leave them empty. It has taken a year from start to finish, and this is the smallest scale I have worked in but it has been a fun build. I want to thank everyone who has followed me in this endeavor. I consider you all my friends. Now for some pictures. Bob Walter Biles, Omega1234, Mirabell61 and 16 others 19 Quote Every build is a learning experience.
