Nice work and exceptional pictures showing all the details and angles. It's getting to where the end is in sight???

Odd the cover wouldn't fit. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you Brad. Still a fair bit to go but definitely getting there. Maybe 2 months or so. Have ordered my next build already. HMS Enterprise 1:48 scale. Looks superb and I can't wait to get started after the Granado
 
I've been working on lots of little odds and ends this week, including at the sharp end with the head timbers and figurehead, billboard etc. I feel the end of this project is approaching, maybe 6 to 8 weeks at most. I am already gearing up to my next project that l have on order and I'm really excited about. l assure you though, this project will not be rushed. l am still enjoying all the time spent on it.

Really looking awesome!

Are you going to drill out the anchor hawse holes? Always a tricky and delicate job!!

Before you start the next project you ordered, you will have to figure out how you want to display her.

The case and holder can be another project in itself!!

Can't wait to see it all completed!
 
Hi Keith. Your excellent log has convinced me that this is my next build. Am I correct in thinking you have built parts one and two? It may say so in your narrative, but I can't find it. Thanks.

Hi Graham. Thank you very much for your kind comments. I am really glad you have chosen this kit as your next build. I am sure you will love it :) . Yes, you're quite right, parts one and two were a few months ago and sorry, l really can't remember when l started part 3. All the parts are very comprehensive and part 3 is massive with the accessories to finish the kit. It is an enjoyable long commitment project and well worth the effort. If you need any help at any time you will find myself and lots of other members on this site who have built this amazing kit ready to give you their advice

Thank you for your reply, Keith. I don't wish to be pedantic, but would parts 1 and 2 get me to something like your post #362? I am keen to know because that is the finished look I would like to achieve. Regards.

Hi Graham. Not really. Pt. 2 will get you as far as my post no. 304, after that I was all pt. 3. Pt 2 only gets you as far as lower deck timbers including the 2 mortar shot storage housings and the windlass support beams. I borrowed the windlass itself from pt. 3. There are no upper deck beams, quarter deck beams or forecastle timbers. Also all the quarterdeck cabin partitions etc. are in pt. 3
 
Bonjour @Keef, félicitations pour ton modèle. Pourrais-tu partager quelques photos de la partie arrière en vue de dessus, car je veux voir les détails des aménagements intérieurs. Merci d'avance.
