USS Bonhomme Richard 1779 1:48 [COMPLETED BUILD]

[Uwek]

Really Great - and congratulation for this important working step.
Hope, that you are a modeler who likes rigging works - the result is very good.
With these total views of the complete ship, we get an imagination how big a full rigged model in scale 1:48 will be.
Many thanks for sharing this update

Thank you everyone!
Here are the anchors. There is a lot of differences from monography's descriptions, but I just had to use what's in the kit, I was not going to manufacture new anchors or order them to someone...

 

[OlegM]

And that's how anchors installed look

I finally attached the boats and finished the railings

I think I need to start posting photos of the running rigging, because the ship is actually almost finished
