Amazing. I'm speechless. Great work that humbles the rest of us.

There aren't but two options: do it FAST, or do it RIGHT.

Last finished projectsRoyal Ship Vasa 1628; French Vessel Royal Louis 1780. 1/90 Scale by Mamoli. 120 Cannons

 

Future projects already in my stash: Panart: San Felipe 1/75; OcCre: Santísima Trinidad 1/90;
