Default Victory Cross Section

OK, My ego is forcing me to do this..

Since everyone had positive comments about the Surprise..
Here's my HMS Victory Corss Section.( The Corel kit).
This was my first attempt at wooden ships..
Time to build ~ 4 months..
It was a great kit for a novice.. Once you learned to translate the instructions from
the Italian...

There are more " work -in- progress" photos if anyone wants to see them...

I'd love to see a picture of the whole model. I've not even seen a cross section model like this before, so I'm quite curious. It looks really nice, I love the rigging.

I enjoyed the pictures quite a bit, but I'm still hoping to see a single photo that shows the entire model :)
