hamilton Posted February 1, 2018 Share #62 Posted February 1, 2018 I built this same 1:100 Amati one several years ago and gave it to a close family friend as a birthday gift - she still has it displayed in her living room and it's nice to see it when we go visiting. Small but nice looking! hamilton SimonV 1 Quote current builds: Corel HMS Bellona (1780); Admiralty models Echo cross-section (semi-scratch) previous builds: MS Phantom (scuttled, 2017); MS Sultana (1767); Corel Brittany Sloop (scuttled, 2022); MS Kate Cory; MS Armed Virginia Sloop (in need of a refit); Corel Flattie; Mamoli Gretel; Amati Bluenose (1921) (scuttled, 2023); AL San Francisco (destroyed by land krakens [i.e., cats]); Corel Toulonnaise (1823); MS Glad Tidings (1937) (in need of a refit); HMS Blandford (1719) from Corel HMS Greyhound; Fair Rosamund (1832) from OcCre Dos Amigos (missing in action); Amati Hannah (ship in a bottle); Mamoli America (1851); Bluenose fishing schooner (1921) (scratch); Off-Centre Sailing Skiff (scratch) under the bench: MS Emma C Barry; MS USS Constitution; MS Flying Fish; Corel Berlin; a wood supplier Colonial Schooner Hannah; Victory Models H.M.S.

kier Posted March 4, 2018 Share #63 Posted March 4, 2018 Hi Simon, I know I am a bit late from saying a word. I just happened to be browsing and checked into a few Bluenose builds, and came across your build. I was amazed at what I saw "fantastic". years ago I built the billings Bluenose II and was absolutely frightened to even attempt making the sails from the sailcloth.(no chance). In a few short words your build is truly great,with brilliant photographs. . Keep it going buddy. . .
