Coca by Rodolfo Bigoni - FINISHED - Amati - Scale 1:60 - XV century Spanish cargo vessel


Recommended Posts

Very nice work Rodolfo

We can always say that the crew is busy repainting and cleaning up the ship where it is needed.

But as I keep telling to the admiral at home:
I only have two hands and can't paint and repair everything at the same time 😉

Regards, Patrick

Thanks Steven for your considerations!

Hi Patrick, speaking of admirals in the house, I'm beginning to think I'm going to be a lazy, unwilling sailor.......😉

 

Dear shipmates,
the last detail has also been fixed and the Coca is finally completed. The yard has been active for two years and three months, so much time is also due to the many changes made to the manufacturer's instructions. It was a very exciting journey that forced me and allowed me to learn a lot of new things of a super fascinating, diversified and complex world.  I want to express my feelings of deep gratitude to those who have accompanied me on this journey, and everyone who took a look at this build, helping me with their considerations, advice and comments to build a better model than I would have done alone. 

I wanted to take the pictures in the morning with the sun shining, but here in the foggy Ferrara I think I would have had to wait for a very long time, so I set up the autarchic micro photo set and did my best to present the final summary of the work.

Here are some images for a general view:
