You have really done this model with the justice that it deserves, your attention to detail and giving it that all over authentic look and feel of the Black Pearl as it was in the movie. Just Amazing.

Hi! I´ve just reached this weeks target, so it´s time for a new update. For the rigging I used some tools which were also used at the "Victory", you can see it in the first pics. Regards, Bernd der Gohfelder attached the following image(s):

That is looking first rate Bernd, nice to see what awaits us in the future..... One question you may know the answer to,are these supplied in future issues or have they been missed as I have never seen them mentioned in any builds of the Black Pearl?  I mean the figures not the stern lanterns............. Tony

Your Pearl is looking fantastic Bernd  You are really making me want to begin mine now! The other 20 issues look good too as you get all the characters and a very nice base stand too - the page you show translates fairly well into english but I cant work out if the skull stand that you get early in the build is the same one used in the end, or is that another one shown on the final base stand? Steve

I think it´s the old one we have got in the beginning and will only get a basement for it. Regards, Bernd
