Hubac's Historian Posted November 17, 2023 Share #453 Posted November 17, 2023 Congrats, Michael! You have been very low-key in your own appraisal of your work, but I will say unequivocally that this is just so excellent and it is the most unique presentation of this model that I have ever seen. It begs the question: what can't Michael D do? I love the way you push yourself to do really difficult things like a full 17th C. rig with fairly flimsy styrene spars, and yet - everything is tensioned where it should be, slack where it should be, and there is ZERO spar deformation. All details in perfect scale. Just incredible! It goes without saying that I'm looking forward to your next build.
