With all this talk on the Chebec....
Posted by Big Jake on Monday, September 22, 2008 8:47 AM

I have about a 2 week break from working on someone else model to get back to mine and did some work on the guns for my Chebec. Takes about 15 minutes per gun to rig them out fully and about another 10 min. to make to some rope coils.  Look on pages  8,9,10.

If the rest of the model turns out as well as what I've done up to now, I hope to have it ready for next years IPMS show. 

Enjoy,

Jake

Looks suspiciously like a Heller 1/50th Chebeck mr. Groby Big Smile [:D] Wonder where all these Chebecks are coming from?

Yesterday I finally  finished ALL rigging for the cannons on the Heller Chebec. Damn I'm glad that's done.  Tomarrow she goes back on the shelf to wait some more as I now have to start work on a new restoration of a clipper ship (webshots has pics.)
