Thank you, I wish you a Merry Christmas too!
I think the Greenwich Museum already has wonderful treasures under the windows ... But it's nice of you! Merci

Just a little remark about moving threads by historical periods:
I know it must have been a huge job to sort it all out, and that's why I've been waiting quietly while I let you breathe a little... 🤪

 

But this HMS Victory is the one before the other... And her life is from 1737 to 1744 (date of sinking), and not in the period of the sub forum 1751-1800... ☺️

Moved to sub forum 1501-1750.  Thanks for letting us know.  Also, a very nice build.

Just got to admire your skill and determination. I do understand this build is your own very personal interpretation of an old bogey. Somehow it looks like a film prop from the 1940's. Well done and thanks for sharing so much.

[Ekis]

Thank you Shipman!
Why a 1940s movie set?
It doesn't seem credible to you for really being part of 18th century Royal Navy History? 😃

(Of course, apart from the white flags of the French Royal, which are a friendly joke to all catches of war between our 2 countries throughout history...) 😂

Impressive job! I was at the national maritime museum in Amsterdam yesterday and none of the models displayed there are of this quality, not even close.

Very inspiring log, thanks for posting 👍🏻

Thanx Halfdan ! Much appreciated ! ☺️

This is Emmet. Welcome aboard. It will be interesting to see the 1737 ship.

Thanks Emmet!
I've been on board for a while now... and you can see this finished model by going back a bit to the previous page. 😉

I will be back to look at your work. I want to take some time reviewing your model.
