I love those old sailing ships. Style, character, and beauty all in one.

Wow! Impressive build, give me a tall ship and the wind to sail her by was appropriate for this beauty. I always marvel at the creativity and ability to build one of these wooden wonders no matter what the size or scale. I have a hard enough time dealing with styrene.

Thanks for showing off your handiwork.

Just give me an E-address and I will send you some highres views.
I am currently working on a number of projects, one of them being another model of this same ship, this time with added lead plates to protect her hull underwater as the ship made some trips to southern Europe.
The model will be for sale in one or two years.
Thanks for your compliments!
Regards,
Pieter Bakels.
