How about teling us where it is displayed, who made it, where the original fished, and a few things like that. It would make the pictures more interesting to many I believe.
Very good model though.

An excellent model and in a very realistic colour scheme too.
I love those rust streaks and weathered look on the model...far nearer to the real thing than the pristine high gloss usually seen.

Stein...have a look at the parent site for the above model...absolutely superb models...way above mere mortals financially I would imagine but attention to detail is amazing.

The original is now a museum ship in Concarneau.

Marvellous bit of work, in the right setting it would be very hard to tell the model from the real thing

It's magnificent craftsmanship, some models take few years to build. It's so happened that I know the person who built this ship model, and some of his work is for sale.
