Recommended Posts

Hi.

Thanks for the likes and comments.

Sea Hoss.. Kind of name I like :)

Hi Nils. How are you doing ?? I like the new family member Casper.  Has he started picking up bits of wood and running with them ?? .. HE will.

Building a Half Model has its challenge's. As you can imagine. :blink:

Thanks again for looking in.

 

Regards Antony.

Antony:

 

I just caught up to this wonderful build.  The quality and ingenuity of your work on these scratch built models continues to amaze me.  This is quite a step up from the Turtle Ship!

Hi David.

Thank you for your kind words.

I like building the unusual ships. Its somewhat more challenging when there is little known about the ship.

Must post a update next week... Have been working on the Mayflower but not Posting... BAD me....

Hi Anthony. 

Im a newbie helping to build a 1/12 model of Mayflower for Dartmouth’s celebration of Mayflower 400. 

 

So VERY interested in your experience. I read every word of your build log. Very useful. 

 

I see see you are also based in Devon. Perhaps we could meet up and swap notes?

Just a little tidying of the edges and clean the dust off and she's ready to go.

Been a interesting build with Help from a lot of people from all over the globe.

 

Thanks for looking in.

Regards Antony.

Beautiful and interesting work, Anthony.   How are you going to display her?  I just can't see hanging her on a wall like other half-hull models.

Hi and thank you all for your reply's. 

This model was built for the Plymouth Education and resource people. 

They will use it as a display Hopefully for the Mayflower 400/401 as I think this years celebrations have been put back a year.

Its been a Fun build all the way through. And had a lot of help with obtaining plans and books relating to the build.

Its been a interesting concept build a cross section of this type. The wife thinks I should do a cross section at the same scale with all the timbers in place.. No mast.

 

Regards Antony.

Sounds like a good idea - assuming you are prepared to put the extra work in . . . :D

Hi.

Well its a nice conclusion to the build.   

Today the Model has been collected after waiting some 18 months  for the Covid to calm down. 

The nice thing is my work area is free again and its time to start researching something else to build.

A BIG thanks to all for your support and Comments. 

 

Regards Antony.
