Looks really good.
Yes,it is fascinating to see a bunch of 2D paper parts turn into something like that ship. Sometimes the parts layout on the uncut sheets are a work of art.

I've wanted to do this for a long time. The number of parts scared me off

Thanks guys, not too shabby a model build for an airplane guy?
Photos # 1,2,3, A few in-process snap shots may be of interest; Photo # 4 rolled masts, the two red -xed parts are extra. Photo #5 Masts given a protective clear acrylic coating prior to inserting wood dowels. Photo # 6 Crows Nests Photo #7 Upholstery thread Rat line assembly using the glued down bolt method. Notice, attempt at cutting out paper spaces done just out of curiosity. Photo #8 Rolled over masking tape helps hold onto many small parts; still a few manage to get away. BP |

I'm really think I aught to build that again, the last one had a mishap with a collared dove that got into the house.

Thank you Bob for sharing.
I have some questions. What would be the scale of the ship? Is this the museum by the Star of India? I would love to drop by and visit all those ships including the Midway, once we can! |
