James Caird - 1/24 scale - scratch built

Pointer121, the model is done and is displayed in the home of Son #1. I visit it whenever I can!
Im new to the forum and have been doing my best to look around and your James Caird caught my eye. I hope to build something similar someday and, when I do, I will definitely be getting inspiration from yours. Thank you, Im sure Son#1 treasures your creation :)

The James Caird is my favorite of all the models I have done. I am glad it inspires you in your own hobby work. The lines I used for the model are in an earlier entry in this thread. Good luck, and if you do choose that model and get stuck on some detail or other, let me know.
