First time model ship builder. Used to build plastic models for years but never wood.
Started with Model Shipways Dory.
Had a great time and learned a lot. Some pics from along the way and some final pictures.
Pretty happy how it turned out. Moving on to the Pram next.

Welcome aboard from Massachusetts! The Dory was my first wooden ship model as well. You did a great job with it. Are you moving on to the Norwegian Sailing Pram?

Welcome aboard from Connecticut. Your Dory looks great! This is how I started and I progressed to the pram then an18th century long boat. For me at lest that was the way to go. I learned a lot with each build.
