Compare this to Doris's card built Victory's main mast. (again I do have permision from her) Quote:Hello Colin!
I am glad, you like my Victory model. No problem with pictures, of course you can use them and show other people. That´s a honor for me!
Cheers!
Doris  this next one show more the furled sails approach...

Oops, the Doris' Studdingsail booms are missing, compare the Longridge yard with the Doris yards

yep your right Tom, didn't notice that, to be-honest that picture was early in her build so maybe she has added them later on..I'll have a look.

Would be most unlikely to add the booms after having added the sails, prob left them off to make life easier, and all the same its an impressive efort!

Doris's builds are truly inspirational. Have you seen her sovereign of the seas build. That is on heck of a model. Her skills on model making and sculpting are marvellous. Sovereign of the seas. By Doris.
She has just started a new one aswell.
Chris. On the bench 1/350 Revell Tirpitz Platinum Edition (Pontos PE and Wooden deck) plus extra Eduard PE set and extra MK1 door sets.
