The young sea officers sheet anchor is absolutely a great book to have at hand when contemplating rigging a model ship.IMG_0547.thumb.jpeg.8144d0e43bee88980b811aed1ada30b8.jpeg

pardon the feet...

 

 Seems very common of late that feet show up in photos.  LOL.

Don't worry, we can't smell them from here! 😁

 

Thanks for the post. 

 

All the best,

 

Mark P

Previously built models (long ago, aged 18-25ish) POB construction. 32 gun frigate, scratch-built sailing model, Underhill plans.

2 masted topsail schooner, Underhill plans.

 

Started at around that time, but unfinished: 74 gun ship 'Bellona' NMM plans. POB 

 

On the drawing board: POF model of Royal Caroline 1749, part-planked with interior details. My own plans, based on Admiralty draughts and archival research.

 

Always on the go: Research into Royal Navy sailing warship design, construction and use, from Tudor times to 1790.

Nice scores!

 

I'm a little self-conscious of my Fred Flintstone feet showing up in pictures after being teased on here a few years ago.  Now I'm more careful!  Mark is right though, we can't smell them so no worries 😁
