tedrobinson2000 Posted June 25, 2022 Author Share #63 Posted June 25, 2022 Thanks to Allan and Phil for your likes. Yes, Allan, I'm starting on Chuck's HMS Winchelsea. It is an outstanding model, and I hope that I can do it justice. It's a kit (sort of) but not like you would buy from Amati or Artesania Latina, etc. Chuck has developed this from an outstanding museum model. It's an ongoing labor of love for Chuck; he's developing the parts as he goes along, making laser cut parts for those who want to follow his build. He stared it about 3 years ago, and there is a group build going on with dozens of modelers contributing. I'm really late to the party for the group build, but it gives me the advantage of seeing how others have fared with different aspects of the build. If you're not familiar, I urge you to look here at MSW for the group build logs. I'm going to try to make many of my own parts like the planking and bulkheads rather than buying the pre-cut versions. I'm hoping to gain some new skills by doing this; it also give me a great excuse to buy a Byrnes Saw!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allanyed Posted June 26, 2022 Share #64 Posted June 26, 2022 Chuck is one of the best when it comes to offering high quality. I have had the great pleasure to know him personally for over ten years from back when I lived in NJ. His dedication to the hobby was always evident, long before he started Syren so you are in good hands.
