I really like the way you did that transom.  The whole model is really looking good!

Ah, haven't realized until today that this little beauty was back online

 

Good to see you back here David!

Keep it up mate

David, having seen your post in the Full Profile Photograph of your Sultana, just had to post how amazed I am at your build. You make this look so easy and the clean lines and the perfection of your build is just amazing..... Just almost makes me want to drop the cross section and pull my Sultana of the shelf so that they may have something of a lower grade to compare yours to.

Nice work on the stern David, well done.

Hey,

 

B.E. (Blue Ensign), Hakan (Wintergreen) and, Pete 38: You guys are great builders. Thanks for the encouragement!!!

 

Ok, here is where I am with the build....pushing to finish the work on the hull. If I had a magic wand it would finito!

 

 

 

Thanks for looking in on the build. All questions, comments, and constructive criticism is always appreciated.

Cheers,

Hopeful aka David

Your Sultana is shaping up nicely.  A word of advice,  make it so that you can repalce your bowspriit.  I have found over the years that accidents will happen all the time.  This way you can take care of any mishaps down the road.  Speaking from several bad experiences.

That looks very sturdy. I hope that rubber band does not do any damage to the hull though.

Excellent work. I love the presentation, flow of pictures and text.

I just ordered the kit and it is nice to see such a Build Log. I will definitely use it for inspiration and techniques.

 

Thanks

Some great looking progress.  The transom came out beautifully.

Hopeful,

 

What is going on with the Sultana? We have not seen any updates in a while. I am "hopeful" that you can resume it soon...

It's been many years scence I have built. Just ordered this kit. Excelent work you have done, your log will be very helpful as I take on this challange.

Where would I be able to see or get Chucks practicum at ?

You can download it from Model Expo's website. Go to their website and choose Model Shipways kits in the lefthand side of the screen. Now choose solid hull kits. Next choose the Sultana. Click on documents when you get to the Sultana kit. The practicum is in several parts, but you can download each part to your hard drive and then print it out as needed.
