Hey, Mike,

If you've not seen a completed 1/72nd corvette, it almost three feet long. This one shows a ship being repainted in harbour by the crew, full rigging and detail pieces in place, plus several cutaway sections showing the ship's interior. An additonal hook for me is that it is a Canadian corvette. The builder took something in the neighbourhood of three to four years to build it! I tell you, Telford is the place to go to see this level of workmanship and outright skill and talent. Makes me want to give up modelling and take up a more relaxing hobby...like alligator wrestling!   ;D
Cheers!
Gary

gary,
 Yeah, had one, sold it, sort of wish I had it back, but I have to narrow my focus modeling wise a bit. A real nice model that is.
