Default Progress on ship model...WIP

It has been a couple of weeks since my last update, so I thought I had better get off my a** and show some progress. I haven't been up to too much work on her lately, but I did manage to get the hull painted. Much detail to go into it yet, but it is taking shape. It may be a while until the next update, going to be off line and unable to work on her for a little while due to some minor surgery. See you in a little while folks, I'll miss ya.

Bob

Beautiful work! I have made ships in bottles, one is the Morgan a whaling ship. That took me about 40 hrs to make. So I can apprieciate the work that goes into a model of that scale. It truly is a wok of art.Thank you for sharing.
