Thanks for admitting me to your expert group.I have been a ship modeller for all my life. I am just commencing maintenance of a 1/64 grand banks schooner made 50 years ago ( photos to follow). Among earlier models a fully-rigged barquentine from Basset-Lowke drawings was irretrievably mangled by my then young twin sons. The Zulu herring drifter at 1/64 was made during covid lock-down and my most recent scratch built model of my own ketch of 30 years at 1/25 was completed from drawings from the Westerly archive and measurements of real craft. The 2WW ML I made for my sister in memory of our father who commanded it in Burma 1944-45. I hope you like my efforts, still hopefully improving despite stiff hands!7d374d05-771e-4434-b14e-da7adf6e2bfd-1_all_9778.jpg
