HM Cutter Sherbourne 1763 by Kovalus - Vanguard Models - 1/64

[Kovalus]

Hello,

 

These are the first steps of my HM Cutter Sherbourne build. The kit looks fantastic in the box: lots of detail and high-quality parts.

So far, the hull skeleton went together perfectly – everything fits like a glove.

This is my first wooden sailing ship model.  I don't have a lot of time for modelling these times, but but I’ll try to post regular

updates—even small ones. I expect the hull planking and the rigging will be the trickest steps for me.

 

Wish me luck – and feel free to share any tips or advice! I’ll definitely appreciate it. 😊

Good luck on your project! I built Chris' first iteration of Sherbourne, which he designed for Caldercraft many moons ago. The new design is much more beginner-friendly.

Kovalus, the Vanguard Sherbourne is a great model. I'm currently starting on the rigging on my own build. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
