Hi,

Very nice model! Did you do a log of this build, I didn't spot yours on the forum? There are a couple of builds of the Sergal and Artesania kits on the SOS but I like to compare what other people have done to avoid the pit-falls and pick up any tips!
 
My father started the build but has since passed on. I took over the build hence there is no build log.I will have problems with the rigging as i do not have all the info- probably was supplied but it is no longer with the kit.
 
I built a Billings Cutty Sark model kit many years ago and believe it was the Kit now referred to , my son now has the model displayed in a case standing in the foyer of his home.
I modified the Kit build with some scratch build of my own at the time ,whether I improved it or not I do not know, however ,owners of an Inn displayed it foreveral years so my guess is thst it was okay .
If I could see a photo of the box the Kit came in I could verify whether
it is the one I built.
Best regards Winova , from Nova Scotia , Canada
 
Not the box of the Billing Kit my model was built from, as far as I can
remember.
Thanks for forwarding the photos. Your model thus far looks great.
Cheers Winova
