HMS Victory

This cut away model was built for me in the 1980's, payment for building a 1/8th scale Rolls Royce.
The model has spent it's entire life in a corner cabinet, but needs a good clean. Might get it done soon.

A feast for sore eyes! Truly impressive. What is the scale and approximate size?

Not sure about the scale. But from the base of the hull to the top of the mast it is 28". Widest spar is 14". Width of the hull, at it's widest point is nearly 7".
