USS Constitution scratch build at 1/700 scale!

[Draco]

At last the first prototype is finished!
I included two jibs and the main sail, and the greatest rigs between the three mast
As I said, I'm going to include a "basic" set of sails, with just a piece for each mast, and a more complete "detailed" set of sails, with staysails, topsails and the spritsail.
The idea is that each one will choose the preferred combination.

Soon I'll start the second prototype, and hopefully, better pictures

Another picture. Again, bad quality, sorry :-(

looking good!!!!

Thanks, jleslie48!
I'll probably start this weekend the next prototype, and I hope someday I'll have a amera with better quality.
This next prototype will have improved surfaces to make easier the assembly and both "starter" and "expert" sets of sails

My son has been challenging me for years to make a ship in a bottle. I'm planning this one to be it.

At last I have a good camera, so I'll place pictures of my ship

I'm dubious about making a better design of the full or making the ship at 1/350 scale. So, the project is stopped after finishing this first prototype

Anyway, you can see the ship finished at 1/700 scale
