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.

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.

Thanks. I was really pleased with how the nameplate turned out. Great work by S & S Trophies & Awards here in Biloxi, MS.

I have replaced most of the earlier photos in the log for those who are interested.

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.

Many thanks. I appreciate it. The case was store bought, but it worked out very well.
