L'Amarante by giampieroricci - 1749 French Corvette scale 1:30


Recommended Posts

That boat is fantastic.  I like the idea of only planking one side.

Dear Giampiero! I have not seen the drawings of Your boat, but I am sure that You may have made a mistake in the location of the stern and the bow timbers.  P.S. It's possible that I'm so wrong... Sorry then!

 

That appears to be the armed boat used by the army.  It had a cannon, as I recall and was used to ferry troops across rivers and also land them from transport ships.  It's bigger than a ship's boat and also much later (1834) than the L'Amarante (1749)

That is a sweet looking boat, Giampiero.    Maybe I missed it but how many ship's boats will you make?

Giampieroricci,

yes, you made a mistake on 11 bow frames /wrong side/

 

you are right!
I did not consider that the floor plates have to be reversed towards the stern, but now I can not change them....   :-(

 

 

That is a sweet looking boat, Giampiero.    Maybe I missed it but how many ship's boats will you make?

 

 

Yes, Mark! There is another more little boat that I have to build: it will be placed within the larger boat

Beautiful work, Giampiero.  I love the stern presentation.  Gorgeous.

I have finished the boat, I only spend the last coat of paint.
Probably, in its final form, I will have to remove the benches and rudder because inside will be held the spear, that still I have to build (and already I shudder because this was a very demanding job!).

Giampiero,

 

When I click "like this" I wish there were, other adjectives available (:-)))) - Absolutely superb work indeed.

 

Cheers,
