This was my first time building a sailboat, and I had absolutely no confidence in completing it. As a result, I didn't document the initial stages of the hull's construction; the filming only started from when the hull was basically finished.

-
The hull was made directly from 1mm thick kraft paper.
-
The model making went exceptionally smoothly; I can hardly believe this is my first time making a sailboat.
-
I didn't know how to make rigging equipment, so I just made it blindly.
-
The cable making was quite difficult, but it was completed smoothly.
-
The sails are made of Chinese Xuan paper, giving them an exceptionally fine texture.
-
The base features a Scorpio design. Actually, this was a birthday gift for my wife, and completing it in a month was a surprisingly enjoyable and unexpected crafting experience.
