Continuing my first wooden ship model build;
I originally was buying the Lego version and already purchased the display case until I stumbled across the Occre , which I bought instead.
I have struggled with the sails and rigging mostly but almost there now
I was dreading the plank laying/ bending around the hull but that stage wasn’t too bad,
So just a few more sails to fit and the lifeboats.

Thanks
I did find the build tricky at certain stagesfor me as a novice
I found the masts a little flimsy which moved about when attaching the rigging (but I have nothing to compare as this is my first build )
I would have preferred if they were a little thicker but that may have spoiled the scale.
But Occre have supplied all that was needed and nothing was missing in the kit
Nice job, Rob. You’ve done quite a number on her. This seems to be a pretty popular kit. What’s your assessment?
