LA VENUS 1782 by giampieroricci - FINISHED - Scale 1:96 - French Frigate


Recommended Posts

Giampiero, very impressive. When you started you said it was an 'impossibly small' scale: well, you have solved that problem!

Lovely work.

A model shipwright and an amateur historian are heads & tails of the same coin

Just incredible that you can produce all the details at this scale.  Very impressive.

Beautifully done.   And very clever doing the carved areas.

Fantastic !

Aside the very high quality, it appears you are working at the speed of light .

How do you cope ?

to be honest, I have little time to devote to the model because for work I have to do at least 160km a day..... I work on the model only on weekends

I just more amazed with every post.  You managed to back so much detail into this small model.   Amazing.
