Hubac's Historian Posted yesterday at 03:10 PM #212 Posted yesterday at 03:10 PM Indeed - a very clever representation! We are all works in progress, all of the time.
72Nova Posted yesterday at 07:42 PM Author #213 Posted yesterday at 07:42 PM (edited) Ian, I try to push myself to see how much detail I can actually add and get away with it without looking too bulky. Thank you for the compliment! Thank you, Marc, short cuts obviously have to made at this scale to look somewhat convincing, which can be a blessing, I guess, I may have to start the 1:96 Cutty Sark after this to hone my skills on the larger scale...hehe.

72Nova Posted 21 hours ago Author #216 Posted 21 hours ago Kevin's build along with less than a handful are the benchmarks for sure. Hi Shipman, I bought mine about 20 years ago and she's been begging me to build her, when I do, I'll build it bare stick, ironically the Revell Cutty Sark was my very first ship model back in 1969 at age 10, completed it in like 10 days, I did not paint it but did rig it completely. I finally have the gun tackles and ring bolts completed on the forecastle and main decks, quite the exercise, 14 left to do.
