Hello Bri62. You are making superb progress on your Victory, Caldercraft/Jotika make excellent kits, I started with HMS Endeavour, now in the middle of Mary Rose then next will be HMS Agamemnon as I keep all of my models ot 1/64th scale, all from Caldercraft.
You workmanship and finishing is excellent. In your opeening message you wrote:-
Decided to post my progress on my HMS Victory, I have been building models for 2 years so take it easy on me I'm probably not up to your standard.
Never put down your workmanship, what we all see and do in this hobby is everybody's "BEST EFFORT".
On that basis never put yourself down for we all do "OUR VERY BEST". It is just that some are more able thant otherbut we all ddo our best.
I am looking forward to seeing your further progress, you have the most intriguing part to come with the rigging. It really is a case of being in the right mood when rigging. I have found a c couple of books that Ifound helpfull when rigging, and you are welcome to quiz me or share the books when the time comes.
I am in Staffordshire.
Best wishes Derek Payne
