That just looks awesome. It really does show how each individual small addition, be it a knot, or a rib, or such, really builds up to a truly super detailed whole.

Cheers Tim starting to wonder what I'm going to do with it ? It's way bigger that I first thought.

Morning Guys this morning I concentrated on the mizzen shifting,standing,top gallant standing backstays and managed to do them after having my room upside down looking for the anchor rope which I have lost somehow anyway it's gone so I blamed the dogs :)

Not sure about that Brian. It probably won’t be given the respect it deserves, by teachers or pupils. Is there a local museum near you that might be interested? At least it would be cased there.

Nearest museum is Chester and Liverpool moving it will be a problem, I really didn't realise the size, its massive lol

Thanks guys I need to have a think maybe an auction house
 
Lots of societies dedicated to HMS Victory, naval history etc. When complete perhaps contact a few, with photos, and maybe it would find a good home. It would make an incredible raffle prize for the Victory Museum in Portsmouth :)

Going to make a start on the bowsprit rigging as I have the thread required.

Cheers Joe, the fun for me is actually building the ship although the finished project look fine I have no attachment to it:)
