BANYAN Posted February 26, 2017 #752 Posted February 26, 2017 I like the white framing and base for the case, sets the model and its baseboard cradle oiff nicely Russ cheers Pat mtaylor and russ 2 Quote If at first you do not suceed, try, and then try again!Current build: HMCSS Victoria (Scratch) Next build: HMAS Vampire (3D printed resin, scratch 1:350) Built: Battle Station (Scratch) and HM Bark Endeavour 1768 (kit 1:64)
russ Posted February 26, 2017 Author #753 Posted February 26, 2017 Pat: That was exactly what my client was going for when she chose this case. She wanted no vertical frames so that when you look in the case, you do not have to look around anything to see the model and she liked the white acrylic base.

russ Posted May 3, 2017 Author #754 Posted May 3, 2017 One last detail for this model. My client and I wanted to get a nameplate made for the model. Took a while to get it done because of logistics, but here we are. Ready for final delivery.

src Posted April 17, 2018 #762 Posted April 17, 2018 (edited) Well done Russ. Is it back to the Capt Roy, or on to something else? Sam Edited April 17, 2018 by src russ, popeye the sailor and mtaylor 3 Quote Current Build Constructo Enterprise
russ Posted April 17, 2018 Author #763 Posted April 17, 2018 Sam: I just wanted to get some photos back in this log and to let people know that this log has those early photos. Captain Roy is progressing. I had to take some time and clean and reorganize the shop recently, but there will be more on Captain Roy. There is another Biloxi schooner model coming in the not too distant future. It will be a built up hull rather than POB.
