HMS BELLONA

[Karen]

I built this model before Sussex. Construction took 1.5 years. On this model I learned how to cut threads and understand drawings. This is my first model not from a kit.
There are not very many photographs of it, since the model was purchased before I had time to photograph it.

Is that a kit, or scratch built ? Tremendous effort.

Hello Karen.
I am currently building a third rate arrogant class like the Bellona, the Vanguard from an Amati kit. Hence my appreciation for your Bellona is personal.
Your model is outstandingly beautiful. The details and finish are sensational.
This is Artisanal or museum standard. Congratulations. I am very envious.
Thanks for sharing.

It's a pity that I don't have many photos of this ship. I didn't have time to take a photo of it.

I already found a photo

Master's work. Accuracy of scale so impressive. Would you share how you treated the Pear wood please. It has a wonderful warmth and contemporary realism to it. A look I'm attempting to achieve with some of my own work.
