Hi,
if you follow the LINK, then you come to a page where
many plans and drawings of 19th century French ships and equipment. Extremely interesting for modellers who deal with this era.

You can download the plans.

Here is a blog of somebody who made 2 types of your ship

Both of them are painted black, but with some minor colour differences on the inside of the ship.

I do not know if black is historically the more correct choice, but I was thinking a red or a blue could look nice?

Hello Aviaamator, at least I read your blog. Wonderful work you make there. I was watching with great interest your carving work and that video where a guy started carving. It looks that everything depends of very sharp tools. I have tried to sharpen my tools myself but never actually had them sharp enough. So first to learn how to sharpen and only then start carving.

And you asked whether to paint the new model or not. I would leave it as is, without paint.

Aviaamator,

 

I would stain the boat dark. It will be a good contrast with the varnished hull of the Jacinthe. I would use a color system that leave the woord grain visible and apply a matt varnish afterwords.
