PvG Aussie Posted August 2 Author #61 Posted August 2 Steven @Louie da fly, it's very imaginative what we do at times when we have to. For example, I don't know how acceptable it is to go through shrouds with lines, but I have done it once or twice on my larger builds. Maybe I'm breaking the rules but I'm sure nobody notices!

ccoyle Posted August 6 #65 Posted August 6 Very nice! I think it is a particular kind of challenge to get a plastic model of a wooden subject to look just 'right', and you have achieved the proper look.

Louie da fly Posted August 7 #68 Posted August 7 Beautiful job, mate. She looks much more like a real wooden ship than most plastic models manage to.
