I don’t know if I am more impressed with your quality or speed.   The combination of the two is amazing.    Great work.  

[ECK]

Well, finally finished today. Catheaded the anchors, added a few things here and there. A most enjoyable build.

 

 

 

 

 

 

And for my next project, another lovely Vanguard offering

 

 

 

I hope next year's Vanguard new offerings will have something sizable, like a 2 or 3 decker

[Stuka]

Well done looks really good 👍

Wow! The finished model is a real eye-catcher!

[Craigie65]

Wow, you certainly churn these out.  The finished product always looks first class. You need to share your secret!

[Ronald-V]

Congratulations! Beautiful result, I also really like the color combination of the upper hull pear and lower hull copper.  

[Blue Ensign]

Congratulations ECK,  15 weeks from keel to completion, Chris is going to have to up his output to keep pace with your  build rate.😉

She looks a fine model, almost tempts me to fully rig her.

I like the rigging process which, once the shrouds are done, does not take a lot of time but some patience fiddling the lines onto the belaying pins in the cramped spaces

Eck, your Harpy looks great - so fast to build her. Vanguard’s Grecian builds into a lovely model (still my favourite build so far, just about eclipsing Adder) but she’s not a difficult build  and really won’t take you long!
