casper1961 Posted April 13, 2013 Share #50 Posted April 13, 2013 Hey Denis I must say you are doing a fantastic job on this model! Historical accuracy be damned, I think this ship looks SO much better in the blue colours than the red. I am glad you decided to go this route. The details and wood colours look great. I must add the decking trenails are amazing, a detail I will copy if you don't mind! Keep up the great work! Cheers Steve Quote Built: Charles W.

lighthousedon Posted April 14, 2018 Share #55 Posted April 14, 2018 I am about to raise the lid from the box that just came, and I look forward to building a boat that looks as fine as your Wasa. You should be proud to have constructed such great boat. This MSW is such a wonderful information site, it is the best place to get info and instructions, I would be lost with out it..
