Hello everyone!

Welcome to my build log of the HMS Sphinx 1775 by Vanguard Models (scale 1:64). I started this model in July 2023, so I have been working on it for a while now. I am not a fast builder, currently somewhere halfway through. I'm building it somewhat out of the box but also modify/improve where i can/feel comfortable with.

In my introduction post here:

Introduction post

there is a bit about myself and my history with the hobby. I had a build log on MSW which has obviously disappeared, and I will reconstruct the build log here (this will take a while). The first part will be more of a photo summary with a short piece of text than a detailed how-and-what. I will try to provide as much explanation as possible (what I can still remember).

I think it is a great kit and was surprised that there are so few (read: no) build logs of the Sphinx here on the forum. Anyway... I hope I can contribute something and that you enjoy looking at what I have made so far.
