Brilliant build, looking great.

 

Still impressed with the weathering look you've achieved.

 

Are you fitting sails? After my last build i was thinking of building my Bounty "admiralty" style with just stubs of masts, but yours looks pretty nice with just the rigging. May do it that way instead. I think the sails on my last build hid too much of the work, and didnt look that great anyway. Certainly not by the time i was finishing sewing them :)

You've certainly picked it up very well !

 

Yeah, you mentioned in your first posts using Vallejo Ochre, graphite and a rubber.Do you go over it with the rubber to rub some graphite into it, then give the full thing a coat of vallejo Ochre? Varnish or anything afterwards?

 

Might give it a try myself if you dont mind a copycat !

 

Rolled sails could be a nice compromise.

of course not.  I don't mind.  Just be careful.  the ochre paint shoul be just a wash.

 

  1. use some graphite powder on the wood deck
  2. expand the graphite with a cloth
  3. Use a rubber to take as much you can the graphite
  4. Take a look about the joints.  They should show off with the graphite.  Also the clear basswood should bring its curves/veins aswell
  5. put some Vallejo Ochre diluted in water (very diluted) with a cloth on the wood. 
  6. Wait for drying.
  7. You can simulate the nails with a pyrograph.

You need to try it before please.

 

 

Regards
