Ryland Craze Posted September 15, 2020 Share #64 Posted September 15, 2020 Congratulations on finishing your Cutty Sark. You built a highly crafted model and the details you added during this build make this model stand out. If you get a chance, please post your pictures in the Gallery. popeye the sailor 1 Quote Ryland Member - Hampton Roads Ship Model Society - Ship Model Society of New Jersey - Nautical Research Guild Current Build - Armed Virginia Sloop, 18th Century Longboat Completed Build - Medway Longboat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipman Posted September 15, 2020 Share #65 Posted September 15, 2020 It's amazing how this venerable kit continues to spark peoples enthusiasm. At a guess I reckon it was introduced in 1958. So here's a thought......how many current builders were born before that date and how many were born since? Revell have earned an honourable place in modelling history. Not to be sniffed at. popeye the sailor and Ryland Craze 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill97 Posted September 15, 2020 Author Share #66 Posted September 15, 2020 Shipman I know I was born before. I was 6 years in 1858. Great idea Ryland to post to the gallery. Have not done that before. Oh and I now have someone at the helm! Could have been a disaster 😀 Ryland Craze, GrandpaPhil, coxswain and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelF Posted September 15, 2020 Share #67 Posted September 15, 2020 Congratulations on completing a lovely model - the figures really bring her to life.

shipman Posted September 15, 2020 Share #68 Posted September 15, 2020 Bill, you must be the oldest man in the WORLD! Not a bad effort for someone born in 1852. You are excused for the stitching on your sails. VitusBering and Ryland Craze 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
