The MAYFLOWER - CARD - 1:100

This is my model of the Mayflower from c.a. 1620, based on the plans from Waldemar Nowy  (1976) from the polish model plans publication "Plany modelarskie, Vol. 78, Nr. 2, 1977".

Waldemar Novy in turn based his plans on the plans for the Mayflower II, by William A. Baker (1958).

 

I made a few modifications to be more historically accurate, especially with the rigging from that period. I started this build back in 2010 and finished it this year, 2020 in December.

 

The model is made of cardboard of various thicknesses. Wooden parts are only the masts and the blocks. The blocks I purchased from Master Korabel. I used the self adhesive foil with wooden pattern and altered with oil paints. Colored parts were painted with either enamel paints for plastic kits or waterproof  art-markers.
