    Hiya John! I understand giving the audience what they crave but, from my perspective, I watch your videos not so much cuz they might interest me, a few haven’t, but because there is always the possibility that I’ll learn something new that I can add to my own builds to improve them, so I watch them anyway. And that includes reworking anything that’s not up to snuff.
    As for finishing the Victory, even after you put it under glass, I suspect you might find and implement improvements.
    I look forward to your updates. The rigging, even without sails, will be an adventure.

    This is a big model and fortunately in most cases mistakes can be rectified or remade.
    Please learn the names and technical terms of some of the parts , as someone who's studied these tall ships as well as actually crewed and sailed them, I assure you you will get to understand how the main engine the sails and masts worked and I think this scale will lend itself to replicating the real thing or at least get a bit more accuracy with the engineering of these ships.
    Best of luck.

    I think in the end when you are going to look at the end result you are going to be happy with the changes you have made. It is all about the endresult. I can tell you that looking at the changes you where making engouraged me to do my second build and do that ignoring most of the instructions given by Deagostini and created the deckings aligned with the woodstrips giving more detail in order to create a lookthru giving extra detail. That works far more bbetter then the system Deagostini suggests. Unfortunately part of the parts i ordered from Woody models got lost thanks to dutch customs but i can manage with what i have. Anyway just to say it again, you making changes worked out just fine for me as well. And i can see that you are getting close to rigging.

    I love your victory build John (for me - more than any if the other kits which are also good but victory is brilliant)

    Hi John, nice little review of your hard work! Yes the rigging will take ages to get right. My Bounty had loads of reworks before I got the rigging correct! Like you I made loads of very fine detailed mods. My first attempt on the build was a failure in 2001 as I lacked knowledge and tools to craft the wood correctly. My second attempt went so much better after arming myself with the correct fine wood working tools and additional modification items. I decided to make my sails furled so as to appreciate the deck detail. Lastly, the protection and display of the finished model! These models are awful for being dust magnets and ultimately the model will look terrible if not covered. I made my own display case which was not easy but now my model looks so fresh and dust free after being on display for 18 months. Additionally because of the shape of these ships the display case's can end up being huge! My Bounty is a 1/50 scale and the case is pretty big! Anyway one step at a time John, my advice would be to only do the rigging when you really feel like it, so if it takes 2 years of intermittent work so be it. You will end up with a museum standard model to be proud of. Lets hope for a much better 2022. I doubt that I will even get to start my Victory this year! Regards JH 😉

      @@Johnbuildsiconic Sounds like a good idea John. Instructions on rigging are not that easy to follow and I can recommend the book Rigging Period Ship Models by Lennarth Petersson if you haven't got a copy. A really good detailed and easy to understand book with masses of clear illustrations on what goes where! As far as I am aware the Victory was the only ship model that had her own dedicated parts build step by step build video series. These are still available on Y-Tube I believe. However building a simple rigged ship model sounds like a good idea and will prep you for the work ahead quite well. I also have Sovereign of the Seas to build at some point and the Mary Rose too! Actually, the rigging on the Mary Rose looks pretty basic as it's an early ship with simple rigging! I have held off from that build as there is still some uncertainty as to the true configuration of the forecastle. I have asked the Mary Rose Trust about that but the parts that may answer the question are still in the Solent which is frustrating!! Good luck with the rigging and remember it will take as long as it takes!!! Regards Johnny 😉

    I feel your pain John..I projected mine to be done in February, but I've put the model down for a month or so. I decided this time to put on the sails, and that is the most tedious of all the processes, so I needed a break. Maybe in April now. It's a beast, isn't it? And I can report that the Titebond II I used for the copper plates have indeed held up. So from now on, it's definitely going to be my main adhesive.

    My Victory doesn't even have decks installed. I'm not going to touch it until I finish a DeA Batista, because that one is a more basic ship where I've made a lot of mistakes and I have to continue learning to avoid them in the future models, such as being impatient and not assembling everything carefully. I haven't touched my models properly for years for studying abroad, thus I lost some skills which need to be remembered before touching Victory. Planking is the worst and Victory has only one layer, sooo... Skills recovery first. After all, building the models is very enjoyable, but it requires inspiration, because it's also a tedious task. The process is more important for me. For instance, assembling Lego has more worth to me than displaying the end result.
