Photos look good Brian. I think if I were in the search for a ship like this I would be drawn to a side profile to supplement the beautiful front and rear quarter shots.
Cheers Joe agreed
One of my favourite builds on here ever I think. Stunning stuff. For eBay, I think you need as many pictures, all side and end views, close ups of detail etc as you can get. You also need to show the size in real terms and describe how it will be packed and sent to the new owners. Lastly, you need to have a minimum price because it would be a travesty for this to go for a couple of quid because there are no bidders. It might be better to try and find an auction house that specialises in nautical stuff and sell it that way if you want to maximise return.
Somebody like this might be worth a call if nothing else. https://www.charlesmillerltd.com/
HI BRI just been havin a think regards you selling the big vic as my freind had a big warship for sale an he advistied it in model boats mag an it sold fairly quickly so why not try that an say buyer must collect as no matter how well you pack this wonderfull model it will get broken an the buyer will not be pleased at all just my thoughts on the subject

That is simply the most beautiful and intricate model I have ever seen built.
It is a testament to your skill and perseverance and I wholeheartedly agree with the others that it deserves to be in a museum for others to marvel at.
