Picked up issue 100 today, only up to the final sanding on the first layer of hull planking. I'm going through doing the hull only, when thats finished I'll start all the top stuff. Issue 101 was there too, a cross section of the Endevour just under the main mast. It looks good, only another 25 issues, guess I'll do it. Current builds: The Victory (of course) The Endeavour The Bismarck Lancaster Bomber And any model kit that catches my eye Everything from 1/35 military to Godzilla and anything in between. Oh and a suit of armour. ( yes real knights armour )

slowly taking shape Karl, are you doing the cross-section? or have i missed any post you made on this. i am thinking about it but if its as slow as the main build i might just wait and see what de-ag brings out after the victory. i do still think it has been worth it but de-ag seem to give more to do each week. current builds

sorry Karl, yes i meant the endeavour cross section, as for the san fillipe i am not so sure if i like the over-all shape of her, think i would prefer the uss constitution (as i meade a mess of her the first time around from a kit with no experience, compared with this forum) or hms surprise as i am currently reading the Aubrey Maturin series. regards current builds
