18th century longboat by Matrim - FINISHED

[Matrim]

K done and dusted. A nice fun little kit when all is said and done. I am also pleased I have got back into 'making' stuff and feel as if I steadily improved as I went along.

 

I sometimes wonder if a more steady researchy approach would suit better and I may adjust to that for the scratch. As it stands I like to see if I can work it out myself first which often hurts 'quality' in the end. Equally that's not the way I am currently wired and it is satisfying working out how to improve a technique myself.

 

Thanks to Chuck for the design and thanks to everyone else for any encouragement along the way.

 

Look another 'soft focus in the dark' shot  l tell myself this is how non-ship modellers see these models anyway..

Hold on a second there buddy.  You don't get off the hook with only 1 finished-boat-photo.  We want to see more!

It's quite an accomplishment to complete this model, I can only hope to do the same. Good job!
