    42 year old ship model, still not finished.

    Hi guys.
    I'm taking a break from my numb fisted attempt at a 144 Tornado, and dug this out.
    My wife gave me this about a year or so before we married, and we had our 40th last September.
    I think it's the rigging and using the loom to make the rope ladders too that kept putting me off.
    But I'll see how far I get this time. Click image for larger version

    That must be a bit of a record, I’d think

        It's been broken down for transport a couple of times while moving ect.
        But it has more than just a model meaning with it being a gift from Marie, so I tried to keep it all together every move.

          Don’t know about shelf Queen, that’s more of a shelf Empress. Hope you can push it over the line soon….
