discussion 42 year old ship model, still not finished.

Hi guys.
I'm taking a break from my numb fisted attempt at a 144 Tornado, and dug this out.
My wife gave me this about a year or so before we married, and we had our 40th last September.
I think it's the rigging and using the loom to make the rope ladders too that kept putting me off.
But I'll see how far I get this time.

That must be a bit of a record, I’d think

Now that's what I call a "shelf queen". :smiling:

It's been broken down for transport a couple of times while moving ect.
But it has more than just a model meaning with it being a gift from Marie, so I tried to keep it all together every move.

Don’t know about shelf Queen, that’s more of a shelf Empress. Hope you can push it over the line soon….
