Paul MooreThat's a fantastic build! What a striking piece you've created. Do you just keep a paper log of the time spent or do you have some more high tech time keeping methods. 200 hours seems pretty quick for something this complicated. Congratulations!

Nick Dragone AutorThanks Paul ! I usually put in two hours a day at the bench, give or take. This build was started in January and finished in March with no other projects going at the same time. I'm retired now after a 35 year career with IBM so I have the time but find I get fatigued at the two hour mark. This was the first sailing ship I completed since the early 1970's. I plan on building more of them !

Just completed this Revell 1:225 HMS Victory. Approximately 200 hours of work went into this project. Molds are from 1959 but the detail and fit was really good. There was quite a bit of flash which took up some time to cleanup but overall still a nice kit. The entire kit was hand painted with the exception of the copper on the hull. Sails were dry brushed using craft store paint. Overall the project makes a nice display piece.
