Very neatly done on the ribs ...

Wow!, looking amazing.

Great work. Way out of my league.

Thanks guys.
I know I'm jumping ahead a bit (well quite a lot) but I thought it might be interesting to add some of the deck furniture.







I made another little jig for the covers for the hatch as there are a lot of them and they all need to be the same.

This looks terrific, kp! Wow!

This continues to get better and better, KP and looks like a real labour of love in wood!

Ok so I'm back on this, first thing to sort is something that's been bugging me since I noticed it in the photos (didn't notice it on the actual thing for some reason) the cowls the anchor chains go into (sorry dont know what they're called) are not the same distances from the hold frame.



So sorted that (disguising the old hole was a pain but I dont think it notices now)





Personally I think this is a great kit (I know some people say otherwise) I dont know anything about the other kit as I've not built them but I'm not too worried about accuracy so i not too bothered about whether it's the right hull lines or too wide, whatever.



They give you ample material to build her (up till now since my brother stripped the planking off and I stripped all the decking off) they give you nearly enough to build her twice, i only had to buy 10 strips of decking to finish that off and have not had to buy any of the side planking and still have loads left over the quality of the materials is top notch my only slight complaint is the instructions are quite confusing (that said they give you a full size high quality photo of the finished model so you can measure and check off that)

That appears to be coming along very well, considering what you started with.

Done some of the panels round the top rails and made a start on the bowsprit, even added the figurehead

This is amazing work. Just gorgeous.

[Early Bird Fan]

that looks amazing, almost feel that i could step onto that deck

[kpnuts]

More done on the bowsprit a start on the dreaded rigging (all be it a very very tiny start)

This just keeps getting better and better! You're going to need a museum type cabinet to keep that in, and I suspect a few museums will be happy to help with storage (on display of course)

Now we get into the good stuff !!
