Black Swan

[GIG1810]

and now.....the Photos....of the little ship....















I really hope you like the pictures ??

I'm still going to build the boat stand so that the toothpick support is no longer needed. There will probably be two small brass tubes on which the dinghy will stand until it is installed on the Athena.

Best regards

Unglaublich! Ausgezeichnet! Your tiny dingy is so great!

Maybe you explained it already, but how did you make the eyelets and cleats?

Wonderful, Gunther! Congratulations on this big (albeit quite small) accomplishment!

Incredible small boat. Well done.

Hey Namariibu,

Thank you very much for your kind words. The eyelets and cleats are from photo etched parts I had made for my 1765 Victory build back in the day. I had them left over in my Victory box and thought I would use them. I will also use eyelets, cleats and other things from photo-etched parts for my Athena so that it really looks like scale.

Best regards

Wonderful, Gunther! Congratulation on this big (albeit quite small) accomplishment!

Hey Paul,

Thank you very much for your kind words. I was very pleased to hear it. Yes, it's really small, and I have to say that sometimes I really reached my limits. Looking for long periods with magnifying glasses is not always good. It's easy to see double, and that's without alcohol.

Cheers
Günther
