Okay my father is retired colonel and he is building a model ships. It is his hobby. The ships materials are original with the original ship. The ships are just smaller then the original. Here is the Spanish War Frigate San Juan Nepomuceno;

All robes, all hull and everything on this ship was built with my fathers finger, except the welt. He bought with the construction plans and welts. Then he is just following the plans and starts building the ship. This ship takes 6 month to built.

I am sharing this with you guys because i love the sail ships live in 1600-1800 years. My father loves too. So i hope everyone will like the ships. If you guys like the ships i can share more ships that my father done. There are 11 ships like this or fishing ships.

Absolutely tremendous. The time and patience to built such quality models does your father proud. I too like all old hand build items cars planes and ships.
It was an age when skill was important, now days everything is made by machine. Reliable but no fun

Richer
