Hi everyone,
Well for a while there it seemed I would never say this. But my Hannah build has finally come to an end! I will add better photos to the Complete Gallery later. I still need add barrels, and mainly figures. But I see no reason to keep this log open any long then adding a couple of photos later with the diorama completed.
The windlass was finally completed, the swivel guns added, two cannons will be next to the name plate, the other two will look like they are ready to load onto the ship. I decided no tripod wenge because it would just be too much in a small area. Besides the main subject is the boat. I added rope hanks here and there. You will notice the inwales painting not completed. Thats were a figure will come in showing him painting. The little structure at this time I am thinking will show shipwrights going over the drawings of the refit of the Marble Schooner.
I now have to go order the glass to cover and protect. I decided on the diorama because I thought it would kinda bring the model to life a little bit.

SO THIS SHOUT OUT GOES OUT TO ALL WHO HAVE WATCH THIS BUILD. APOLOGIES FOR IT TAKING SO LONG TO COMPLETE. BUT BEING RETIRED NOW HOPEFULLY MY BUILDS WILL SPEED UP A BIT. THANKS FOR WATCHING. I AM NO EXPERT BUT I ALSO HOPE MY BUILD WILL OTHERS WITH THEIR BUILDS OF THIS MODEL. SINCE IT IS A PRETTY POPULAR MODEL TO BUILD.

HAPPY MODELING!!!
MARIO

*****NOW ONWARD TO FINISH MY WHALE BOAT****

I forgot to mention the ground cover is crushed English walnut shells and used diluted white glue to hold in place.

Hi Mario,
A great model of Hannah and an equally imaginative presentation of her repair in the shipyard! Don't worry about the time it takes to build these models. I wish you the very best in your next venture.

Keith.
