Very well done Martyn. I have an idea of putting 1mm square spars in between like those on the side rails next to the step for a more scaled effect. "Rather try and fail than had failed to try".Sovereign of the Seas Model Space forum: Marcel's build

Hi Eddie the Sovereign is a fab looking ship, but in my opinion the Victory is an easier first build. Jase “Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.” -Mark Twain
