Jaw dropping!! That is one hell of a model, and made of paper too!! I recently read a book called "How to make Clipper Ship Models" By Edward.W. Hobbs. First published in 1927, in it are a number of models in wood created by a young lady (pictures incorporated) using carpenter's tools of the time, the models and craftsmanship sorry... craftswoman-ship are totally amazing, I suggest that it be read, as there are some items and techniques in the book that we can employ on our models. But that lady and her Victory...SHEER GENIUS!! Current Builds: Deagostini HMS Victory: Deagostini HMS Sovereign of the seas. Completed Builds: Del Prado: HMAS Bounty: Hachette: RMS Titanic: Del Prado: Cutty Sark...
