lmagna Posted July 5, 2021 #32 Posted July 5, 2021 All of those parasols, sunbonnets, long dresses and kids in tow in the first couple of pictures make for an interesting looking crew.

lmagna Posted July 7, 2021 #39 Posted July 7, 2021 I must say that just the adding of the rigging contributed considerably to the model. This is going to be a very unique ship in your collection.
