davec Posted December 28, 2017 #366 Posted December 28, 2017 Michael - Not sure how I missed this - Halifax came out beautifully. Case looks great, too. I finished Hannah with rigging a few years ago. Harold Hahn's plans were amazing. I think we have all gotten so used to the incredible things that can be done with CAD that we forget how well someone could do with old fashioned pen and ink. The schooners are truly beautiful. Hope you had a great Christmas. Best wishes and happy modelling for the coming new year.

After trying to follow along with the threads on drafting here it is very apparent how skilled they were. Ryland Craze and mtaylor 2 Quote Michael Shipwrights of Ohio Current Build: ...

mcpwilk Posted December 29, 2017 #368 Posted December 29, 2017 Beautifully done. I tend to mount my ships on pedestals over a mirror which shows up the planking etc better. Mike mtaylor and MEDDO 2 Quote

I am not sure why but I was not thinking ahead to the final mounting and did not prepare for it when building. The little tiny resin pedestals where not going to do it so I made the larger cradles. I may at some time in the future rethink it. I like the idea of a mirror base. mtaylor 1 Quote Michael Shipwrights of Ohio Current Build: ...
