Edmund Fitzgerald

I haven't done a ship before so I decided to take on what looked like an easy project (heh, famous last words right?) Rocketman Tan's Edmund Fitzgerald. I'm not going to build the ore chutes with this one, just the ship itself.

Enjoy the show.

Looks great, coming right along. I hope the fate of your ship is better than the real life one.

Heh, this thing is so overbuilt it's ready for F5. I may have gone a bit overboard with the balsa skeleton.
