My wife bought this model for me as a Christmas present. I thought it would take me until next Christmas to finally finish it. I've been saving this Opus for when I finally finished the model Any guesses as to which ship this is?

Beautiful, my first wife (there have been three) bought me a wooden model of the Cutty Sark, and I worked on that thing for 2 years and never did finish it, sure wish I still had that ship now to and had the moxy to build it like you did! Simply fantastic!

I didn't use the same paint scheme that is on the real Mayflower but that is because I like the way the natural wood looked. The ship is made almost completely out of African Walnut and Mahogany and I thougt it would be shameful to paint over that. Anyways, good call echo.

Damn and I thought the "good ship lollipop" was it 🙂 really I wanted to be a wood guy, it just wasn't in the cards.
