That's a very worthy project Callen
Your build will allow us to truly visualize what the harbor may have looked like with the
colossus standing guard. Your head carving is very very well done. I'm definitely hooked to this thread.
Cheers

Thank you Sylvain! I hope you stick around. I am almost done with my big 'work project' (professional commitments..) and will shortly be returning to Trireme Land and Carrack Land en force!
So there will be more soon. Hopefully a few surprises.

It definitely is.
Actually, I have long harboured plans for building the Pharos in Alexandria in 1/700 (to the point
of having put together a basic paper model) once I realized that in my all-time favourite scale, 1/72, it would be slightly, uhm, dominating the room...

Funny, Jorit. I actually was intending to do the Pharos first, as I thought it would be much easier than the
Colossus, but, on a whim I started a head, and decided to go with it. The Pharos is next on my list
of 'Ancient Wonders' and will use many
of the same ships. Great minds think alike! ...so they say. And crazy modelers think alike too perhaps.
