10/16/2021 After 18 months (917 days), the monster is finished. Actually I had a great time, the ship went together pretty much without any problems. The material and plans were first rate. The only thing I could fault is the castings as they aren't up to todays standards as fantastic results can be achieved with 3D printing. I am really happy with the result and it looks great in my display room.
The finished size is:
1027 mm long, 443 mm wide, 863 mm high
These are the extras I've added:
custom made sails
ships boats
ships flags
stern lanterns are 3-d printed
atlas (4) support stands
hull construction nails
cannon balls and storage frames
cherrywood parts
Parts from Syren:
all visible cannons and carriages
all blocks
all larger diameter ropes
upper deck hatches
belaying pins
On to the pictures….
