It started off as a 1/96 Constructo kit, but I found it so inaccurate scale wise that I kit bashed it, getting plans from the original Cutty Sark museum , trying to do it as scale as I could using my own materials. I pretty much built it by scratch after doing the planking all of the rigging, the sails, railing, the water barrels, the ropes. most of the blocks were handmade too. Now I have more online sources for scale blocks and deadeyes to buy. The copper sheeting is just quarter inch copper tape that I embossed myself. It’s about 34 inches long and 27 inches high and there’ll be some details here. The USS constitution I’m beginning is going to be made mostly from scratch as well starting with a kit from mamoli.
