Belle Poule 1780 1:72 - Sail and Sail Model by zoly99sask

Hi Zoly!

If you don't spend a few hours every day with your model, it's a long way to completion. I always wonder how a kit manufacturer develops and presents his model in a few months. You have the hardest and most complicated work behind you and the model looks very good.

Best regards
Thomas

Yes -. our problem is the missing time. Havin a job and (active) family we can maybe work 1 or 2 hours a day.
Imagine it is your job and you would work on your model 8 hours a day ......
BTW: Zoly - your hull is looking very good

No I don't want a job, just hobby for 8 hours a day, more fun

As soon as a hobby becomes your job you don't have a hobby anymore

So I kicked off assembling the jig, the parts not required any sanding, they fit together as they are perfectly, using wood glue, clamps, and some weights
