Thistle17 Posted January 28, 2022 #241 Posted January 28, 2022 Extremely well done and presented I might add! Crisp, crisp, crisp!!!! What is next Ryland? Joe Ryland Craze 1
Ryland Craze Posted January 28, 2022 Author #242 Posted January 28, 2022 Michael, Thanks for the comment. I have been following your Medway build and you are doing a really nice job on building it. It is nice to see the progress you are making on this fine kit. Joe, I appreciate your comment. My goal is to finish my 1:48 scale 18th Century Longboat. I would like to have it finished so as to display at the Northeast Joint Clubs Conference on April 30th in New London, CT. I have found the smaller scale kit more difficult to build than the Medway Longboat from Syren Ship Model Company.

Ryland Craze Posted March 1, 2022 Author #243 Posted March 1, 2022 This past Saturday, the Richmond Chapter of the IPMS held their annual Old Dominion Open Model Contest and Show. I entered my Medway Longboat in the Wooden Ship Model category and was awarded the first place gold medal. I was surprised at taking the gold medal. This shows how well this kit is designed and how it builds into a very fine model. I also want to thank those that post their builds on MSW as I am still learning techniques and getting ideas that help improve my modeling skills. Also, a special thank you goes out to the manufacturers that are turning out some fantastic kits that allow us to build these beautiful models. Here is a picture of my medal. I hope to build a display case for my Medway and it will definitely be displayed alongside my model. Here is a photo of the second place model by Stewart Winn. It is a scratch built bomb ketch: Third place went to Lou Husser of the Washington Ship Model Society with his Midwest kit of a Muscungus Bay Lobster Smack: Below are photos of the Hampton Roads Ship Model Society and the Washington Ship Model Society displays at the show. In the forefront of the first photo is the Destroyer Escort Kendall C. Campbell that was recently completed by Gene Berger. The Hampton Roads Ship Model Society: The Washington Ship Model Society: It was a fun day for all that attended and I am looking forward to next year's show.
