I guess our livingrooms are a bit too small for such size! Funny picture of how the guy pushes the model into the museum!

What a great website and good links too. One has to aadmire the guy for taking on a build that large and staying with it. I have several big "had to do" projects in the basement that are too far along to throw out but too old to remember what all the excitement was at the outset.  I won't bore you with the philosophy of running out of time.

   "So, I built one of these in my basement, and it wasn't untill I got it finished that I realized...there was nothing in the instruction about how to get it out of the basement !!!!!!" Sigh [sigh]

 

   I really don't think I'm up to a project like that! Good looking model.

Lead me not into temptation ..................I can find it myself

If you get a chance, also check out the 1/12 scale rigged model of the Napoleonic 120 gunner l'Ocean in the lobby of the Musee Nationale de la Marine in Paris, as well as the the 1/12 scale rigged model of the fictional 74 gunner William Rex, built to suck up to William of Orange, in Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
