My latest is a schooner but it's not very well built...Moab

Its incredibly thrilling to see your creation impossibly set up in the bottle. Your gonna get hooked on the hobby now. Great job. Viking ships may be simple but they are incredibly fun and look so awesome. You picked a perfect ship to start out on. Good luck getting her set. I'm excited to see the result.

All rigging done. Tamiya extra thin cement bottle is actually Micto Kristal Klear -i.e. white flue to seal the rigging from frizz.

I took the plunge ! First picture; laying out in readiness Second; insertion Third; secured with a Kelly forcep while I jiggered everything about with a bicycle spoke. This is what the whole thing was about for me, to find out what all you talented folks go through. I know this is laughably simple compared to the fine work in this forum, but what an experience! Next... gluing the ship in position, then making a decision about the sea (or lack thereof).
