olsbooks Posted March 12, 2017 Posted March 12, 2017 (edited) Thought I would share a few pix of my first boat kit. From a Lindbergh kit. Normally I do weathered big rigs and a buddy challenged me to give it a whirl as he dreams of having an old shrimp boat which he said would be named the SS Poopdeck. So.....the challenge was accepted. For those ship builder experts out there that fight with rigging, my respect for you has been (further) kicked up. Peace Edited June 21, 2018 by olsbooks space
redneckrigger Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Nice change of pace......................keep the photos coming!
Dragline Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Quite realistic. Being from a fishing town I know a thing or two about old boats. NAILED.
oldnslow Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Nice boat , Is that the shrimp boat kit ? I have a couple of those to build for my train layout.
olsbooks Posted May 9, 2018 Author Posted May 9, 2018 (edited) Finally finished... (less rigging)..sorry about the blur. Edited June 21, 2018 by olsbooks
cobraman Posted May 9, 2018 Posted May 9, 2018 Having just completed my second wooden boat/ship kit ever I offer you much respect . I find these things very chalanging .
Renegade Posted May 9, 2018 Posted May 9, 2018 Beautiful build. Have a few in the hole but probably going to wind up trading them.
Jim B Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 Well done. Is that Forest Gump on the rear deck? Where's LT Dan?
