That's a super structure!

That is shaping very nicely! I'm having tramp steamer envy again... I do NOT have space or time to build (or store...) a reasonable sized tramp steamer, dammit!

Very nice.

Next update on the blog...
I add the ridges to the hull and give the boat its first coat of paint

more soon

The use of cord (1mm or something similar, I'm guessing?) and tape is inspired.

I've used masking tape as tarpaper on roofs and other surfaces before, but using it as texture on painted metal hadn't occurred to me.

Looking forward to the next progress report!

Ace work!

Salty!!

I really like what you've hatched!!

Her proportions are so natural, ever so much more a ship, than a gaming piece of scenery.

You, Sir, set the bar VERY high indeed.

Might I suggest bow anchors port & starboard? She seems of a size to warrant same.

Any chance we'll see mastage & boomifications soon?

Outstanding build so far. Very nice work Mr. the shed! Now it needs to be mounted on the volcano possibly with dinosaurs and lasers!

Snitchy sends.
