    Default HMS Victory, sail of glory E: 1/1000

    Hello everyone!

    I've finally finished my HMS Victory. After hours fighting with the crew I've gotten a satisfactory result. I hope you like it. For any questions, do not hesitate to ask.

    Best regards,
    Julián

    Every time you post photos I think that a model can't get any better but you have proven me wrong. This is absolutely spectacular. Words can't describe how great a job you did on Victory.

    This isn't right. At first, I thought I was looking at a large scale model, not having paid attention to the heading. When I got to the bottom and saw the ship on the Ares base, well, what can one say. This just isn't right. Julián, I mean this, with an understanding of what I am actually saying - your work is awe inspiring.

    I really can't believe this is the Ares ship!?! What a beautiful piece of art! I think I'll refrain from posting any future ship modeling. I cannot hold a candle to your work.

    Hi Julian,
    Nice, very nice. As I have crewed a ship using bits of hair-rollers (Swedish ship) , I must ask who and what are your crew make from or who's figures are they?

    Julian, they've posted your work on the Sails of Glory Facebook page. Should be very good exposure for your future efforts.

    Thank you very much Bobby,
    I will not deny that there is much work behind this ship.

    Hi Rory,
    I bought by Ebay an array of brass. They are 1/700 boat sailors, but you can see that the result is good for 1/1000 scale. Do not know how it can work in 1/1200 scale, we are talking about much difference in scale and may seem giants in boats. What it can work very well is for ports, imagine putting in ports crowded, with all the activity and racking. It would be great
    I add a link of ebay item, you can put in touch with the seller and ask about this item.

    You have outdone even yourself. This is incredible work!



    I wish I even had the eyesight to see the details you've painted!

    I finally could add reputation to you again and this was the perfect timing to give it.

    Very nice!! Excellent work, even the photography. I heard water splashing and ship creaking from looking at the water-level-perspective photos (someone said, "ahoy", I think).

    Morning Julian

    That is awesome work.............have you ever tried to get a contract to produce models for a museum, the ships would make an awesome diarama Your quality would do justice in a true sense via a depiction of
    the battle, that would be a real treat to see your ships at the opening engagements of Trafalgar.

    Shane, thank you for your words! That would be a great challenge for me.

    I don't know of no museum that is interested but I for one would have no problem.
