HMS Enterprise

Hi folks.
I have been commisioned to build an 18th century Royal Navy frigate for a local historical society. My starting point for this is the Paper Shipyard HMS Enterprise. I ordered the kit last week along with sails and blocks and received the order within a week. Excellent service!. Anyway, all other projects are on hold for now as I have to build this to a deadline, so no pressure.
The kit, by the way is excellent.

Many thanks friends, glad you are enjoying.
The kit comes with a set of laser cut frames which makes the hull assembly a breeze, it just clicks together.

Only on the stern frame, the rest is self-aligning and supporting.
