Hi Willz
Just by looking I can see that a lot of thought and skill has been put into this model, excellent work I wonder just how long it took you to build it.

Regards tf64.

How long ???? Well tf64 a lot longer than first anticipated, the trouble I have tf is that I strive for perfection I see it as a challenge that has to be conquered, the same as your table and chairs they take a lot longer than people think.
The photo below has over 220 hand made parts with a few to go yet, so at 60 years old, think I might of bitten off more than I can chew. Lol

You asked for pictures of the OLD Victory stern. Having gone to the trouble to post one for you it would be nice if you acknowledged the fact. It also seems that you didn't want the OLD Victory after all.

Hi John sorry for the confusion the old Vic is just my terminology for HMS Victory as she is today, never imagined it would be taken for the 1765 original Victory, just goes to show how people think differently when reading, I did find your drawings very interesting and yes I do appreciate your efforts, so thank you John and again sorry for the confusion

Hi Willz,
Those pics of the launch look to me to be absolute perfection, I cant see how it could be any better! A victory completed to this standard will be an awesome sight.
Will follow this build with great interest
