Hello from Greece

Recommended Posts

Greetings to all members, I started modeling many years ago and have built quite a few, mostly cars and motorcycles. Some time ago I started the reconstruction of Le Superbe - 1784 - 1:60 Scale - French 74 Gun Ship of the Line and at the same time the construction of Endeavor by Amati. In the meantime, as a break!!, I will also try a paper model. I chose the Celtic Voyager  from Paper Shipwright company. That's it for now and I'll try to post the progress of each project.

 

Le Superbe - 1784 - 1:60 Scale - French 74 Gun Ship of the Line.  The model from Falconstein, although very detailed in some places, I judged that it requires to stand out better, such as gun ports, etc. So I decided to rebuild the model in several places. The work is still in progress.

Celtic Voyager by Paper Shipwright. 1:250 Scale. A marvelous little kit !! The size is really microscopic but all the details is here. The work is still in progress.
