Hi.
I've just finished the 1:25 Biling kit, which was another Xmas present from the wife. Bless her! I think she gets me these kits as a punishment.

If anyone is interested, I will do a build log, like I did for my African Queen model. Until then , hers are a few pictures of the boat in its completed (for now, state).20250417_185816.jpg20250417_185828.jpg

Just finished rigging the boat.....after a bit of swearing. The pictures below show the finished boat with the oars stowed.20250418_112030.jpg20250418_112103.jpg20250418_112118.jpg20250418_112131.jpg
 
Just wanted to show you my take on the 1/25 scale Billing Boats Oseberg. Sail built without a sewing machine. Here are a few photos to whet your appetite, you can see the details in my short video. Wishing you a peaceful New Year and thanks again to this site and all its members.
