It's a Beauty!

Thanks Ragnar. I used no paint or varnish on wood, all color with ink.

Thank you Tim, I have started the USS Constitution and I don't care for the black and white paint. Using ink is a much improved look; that I now plan on trying.

Thank You for the tip

A lot of rigging there!

Thanks Ragnar. I used no paint or varnish on wood, all color with ink.

I experimented with ink on my Granado, but when I needed to unglue a white glue part (using water), it caused my inked areas to run and make a huge mess, so I continued with paint. I'm sure you were neater than me, as that's a really great job. And SO MUCH RIGGING!

Where and when did you get the model? How long did it take you to build him? I think I am most amazed at the detail in the rigging.
