Beautifully done. Just wonderful.

How on earth did you create the natural billow in the sails?

This is art.

Superb wood selection, processing, harmonising of elements and overall construction.

It was clear from the start that this was going to be a first class model.

Nicely done. The lines to open and close the gun ports are good detail.

Приветствую, посмотрел с утра сегодня всю ветку сборки отлично , просто класс, я тоже делаю корабли не с наборов а в ручную, из всей техники только маленькая циркулярка проксон.

Привет ! Я циркулярку заимел только в этом году...сейчас строю Драккар Осеберг. Когда строил "Золотую Лань", эл. инструмента не было, там исключительно ручная работа... Удачи в постройке моделей...

да дракар я уже увидел пост , но пока не смотрел, тоже хотел дракар строить но меня волнуют вырезы в шпангоутах под обшивку )))

Superb execution all around. I love that you paint with wood, so to speak. Not a line out of fair, and the billowing effect of the sails really is very well done. Congrats!

Great build! And very well photographed indeed.

Congratulations!!

I am amazed at all the superb detail, craftsmanship, and thought that you placed into building a wonderful model. I am in the process of building a Galleon from scratch and will take several of your ideas and try to encompass them into my build. I have nowhere near your skill level but can only hope my build will appear to be half as good as yours. You produced a fantastic work of art.

Hello! Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad you liked my model!

Does anybody on this thread have any clues as to the origins of this sad wreck of a Golden Hind bought at a local auction for around $25 US? It's very large (maybe 1/30 - see scale rule ) and appears very well built in the fashion of the Nineteen Sixties or before. Is it a scratch or is it a kit? - If so, which one?

Oh no! These Spaniard also knew how to use their cannon! So unfair! Aeropiccola had a quite big Golden Hind looking very much like this one (minus the battle damage, of course).
