Here is my Modified SS34, Ella's Pink Lady. Famous for being the boat which young sailor Jessica Watson sailed around the world in. Thanks to Tom/Rodondo who helped with the lettering on the sail

Thank you. I have found by trying to draw many drawings and quickly turning around and giving up that for me drawing on smaller scale is actually easier than larger scale.

Well done LadyRodondo. The epic voyage of young Jessica deserves a represantation in Shipsbucket.
Ijoin Heuhen's remarks about small craft, and may I implore you to try your hand in FD scale, and draw this little sail boat, a perfect subject for that scale.

Lady,
That's lovely!
Tom and Redondo, great assist gents!

Do consider doing these small subjects in FD scale or consider one in each SB and FD scales. I'm finding that there's been a few drawings I've done that a revisit in FD satisfies that urge to get some of those details SB is to small for.

Keep up the great work.

Thanks Everyone :D.
Started to work on the FD scale whilst waiting up for the FIFA world cup to start. Have found it to be much easier to highlight some of the details that were missed on shipbucket scale. Hope to upload this soon.
CraigH- Tom and Rodondo are the same person :)
