Photos of my Sovereign of the Seas

At the request of a member, I am uploading a couple of photos of the stern area of my ship model. The individual carvings are in Boxwood and carved with a dental drill. The hull is planked with Swiss Pear and the planking below the waterline is Holly.

Regards,
Bill

Thanks Bill, I was hoping you would post a couple of pictures - that is truly amazing...craftsmanship of the highest order.

I was checking out your other photos at The Modelshipwrights web site in the gallery section - it was well worth the visit.
