The gaffs and top masts, some woodworking done.

Mustafa, this is going to be a very nicely rigged model. I like your working methods: simple, but very effective.

Thank you so much G.L. I am not a master. I am trying to do my best. I have been in this hobby for only about 2-3 years. (I wish I met this hobby 30 years ago  ) I like to make things simple. First of all I plan what to do and how to do it with an easiest way and then I do it.

The gaff is in place and rigged

[mtbediz]

Started working on the boom.

Pickle gets closer to the finish. I made a buoy and completed rigging of the anchor in the starboard side.

very clean work

[mtbediz]

She will be named soon. I made the anchor in the port side hauled up on the deck and attached the buoy. I completed side rails of the poop deck.

Just amazing work!! I’m curious; what references or plans did you consult while building your ship?

Thank you. For the false keel and bulkheads I used Caldercraft's kit plan. The rest is from the pictures and videos of Pickle's replica in the UK and the other sources on the internet.

HMS Pickle, finished.

Congratulations, Mustafa. A beautiful model! Very well done.

The trophies on the background, are them for modeling?

Thank you. No, they are not related with modelling. They were presented to me by the company I worked for while I was working (anyversary etc.) and when I got retired.

Fantastic model, Mustafa you've done yourself proud.

Well done😃👍

 Nice work!!

Where did you get your plans from , I just realised that you seem to be building  the " replica" vessel that sails now (with the cabin) rather than the probable original layout ?

Thank you Spy. I used Caldercraft's kit plan (in Jotika's online instruction manual) to cut the false keel and bulkheads. The rest is from the pictures and videos of Pickle's replica in the UK and the other sources on the internet.
