thanks for looking guys. Hi Phil I have been doing some work on the FD but life has really got in the way. I lost my Mother a few months ago so have been sorting out the estate and selling the house along with the funeral so time has been really precious plus I've lost a bit of mojo but hopefully will update soon.

hi Del and Mark thanks for the comments. Moving three large model ships from Suffolk to Kent was real fun. The only damage was the flag staff on the sol but with a spot of glue fixed Thanks again Martyn Building ?

After a long time away from the fd I have been working on the yards and sails. The sails are made from a old shirt which have been cut about and aged by rubbing with some rough sandpaper then dry brushed with different colour greens and browns. Next job more yards and sails Thanks for looking Martyn Martyn Ingram attached the following image(s): Building ?

Hi Martyn,
My apologies but I had almost completely forgotten about this build until you popped up with it recently.
You are making a fantastic job of her and I look forward to seeing further updates through to completion.
Chris
