This was a Billings kit of the Wasa that I started years ago .I could not finish it as the Wasa as the accessory kit was not available so after another long time I converted it to the Bouny.
Wow it looks great. Such fine work. I visited the Vasa,(correction in your naming of the vessel) when in Sweden during a work visit with Seco Tools many years ago. It is certainly a fine ship but it is easy to see why she tipped over. Cheers Ian 😊
Looks really good. I saw the movie ship duplicate in San Juan Puerto Rico. Met and became a friend years later of the first mate. When ship sank she moved to Boston n lived in the harbor on a sailboat. We both were working on a scifi convention talking about San Juan. Then realized we were talking of same friend. Then realized we knew each other. The years change your appearance. She got married several years back n now is on dry land. I got to stand on the deck n see the ship. It’s more complex on rigging. They had radios n a motor/ propeller built in that version. I never could see myself up the rigging on the sails. A good subject to model.
