A lot of work in a short period of time, a "quick and dirty" model, to say the least. Tons of shortcuts, but I will reveal the reason in good time. (If you are interested?)

It's coming along, should be finished by the end of the week, I hope. I had planned to be finished by today, but we had contractors in putting in new flooring, and I don't handle confusion and noise well, so not much done for three days.

Bob,
Beautiful, as always! I'm more curious about where this vessel is going than what it's named. Any hints?

I should be so good as to do such a job, much less a 'quick and dirty'

Not sure about the "Monitor-Merrimac" theory... I am curious... can't wait for the reveal!!

[Hi_Ho_Sliver]

You do fantastic work Bob! Want to see it when its finished!

[squbrigg]

Sure is turning out pretty!!! Really taking shape now, and showing her lines. I'm quite happy with it, for a quick and dirty one!

Bob

PS: I attached a close up of that dragon for you Garry, sorry, I though I had posted it before.

[squbrigg]

A few more of detail.

Please, don't mind the shortcuts folks, is a quick one.

Getting down to the small bits and pieces. The brass work looks good, set off by the dark hull well. Rolled the sails and soaked them with white glue and water to set them, held up waiting for them to dry. Tomorrow I carve the sea, I hope!

When you get it done Bob you might try and discribe it to me. It sounds like a great ship though.
