Pontus Carlweitz - from Sweden builds our H138 HO Sloop

From Pontus:
Here are a few pictures of my recently finished version of your H0 scale ”30’ sloop” resin kit.
I changed mast and boom to somewhat finer evergreen plastic rods, added rigging of thin elastic thread and sails of thin paper prepared with thinned white glue.
I also added a rudder and a few more small details.

Now the sloop is about to set sails at the docks of my 1:87 scale harbour/railroad miniature called ”the village of Dyvik” (that’s swedish for ”Muddy Bay”!).

I really enjoyed working with this nice little vintage sailing yacht!

Best regards from Sweden,
Pontus Carlweitz
