Black Pearl by Adrieke - Hachette (Amati)


Recommended Posts

hello John

 

they come with the kit , there will be about 25 in total I think. I am not use the small hooks that come with them to hang them from the beams as the wiring accomplishes that

Week 19 - 21

 

after finishing off the painting of all the tiny parts of week 16- 18 its now time to place them in the ship

 

I have also worked on fitting the lanterns (with LEDs) and only one remains to be done

 

all the parts of the lower deck are glued in place and I have checked to make sure they are sturdy as the ship will be on the side when planking starts and I don't want any bits falling off ;)

 

once the final lantern is in place I can glue the 4 parts of the next deck in place tomorrow.

 

I have modified two of those parts for the wiring so that all will be hidden

Great to see you back at it, Adrieke.

 

I really like the additional items ... in particular, the wine cellar and box of vegetables.

WEEK 22

 

yet again I will not use the two provided sheets of cardboard that represents the deck planking, but instead use left over strips.

 

also provided are all columns for the beams. as I did with the ones on the lower deck I will adjust them a bit to make them look a bit more 3 dimensional ( I ll take a picture next time to show what I mean

 

WEEK 23

 

these are all the beams for this deck. 10 more lanterns will need to be fixed to these so I will need to adjust them so I can hide the wiring inside.

 

a groove about 2 mm will be cut on the top leading to the side that will be completely planked. there the wiring will be hidden between the inside and outside planking.

I shouldn't be surprised about instructions being wrong.

 

today I noticed that the little tabs on the ribs that will hold the parts with the gunports are on the wrong side.

 

they are on the side that is going to be open

 

thinking I made a mistake early on I went back to have a look and yup its the instructions that are wrong

 

in the picture on the right it shows the tabs on the right when facing the bow

in the one on the left it shows them on the left

 

this means I will need to cut them off and somehow add them on the other side

Adrieke,

Not sure I can see which tabs you are referring to ... 

 

Do be careful, though. I created a whole lot of extra work for myself in a build because I thought the plans I was using were messed up. I only worked out after the rip-out/re-build that the photograph I believed wrong was taken from a completely different angle.

 

Not that I'm saying that is the case here ... I've not built this ship.

But could you not open up the other side instead ??

Or does that mess with all your internal work ??

here the adjustments I did to the columns

 

first picture is a shot before

 

second picture shows the two sliced of parts. I make 2 45 degree cuts at the top and bottom and then make a cut from one end to the other to remove it. then repeat on the other side

 

 

last picture the finished product all it needs is a bit of sanding and then staining

Hello Captain Steve I followed your advice and the tabs are where they supposed to be. I  incorrectly assumed they where to fit the parts on the closed side. what the purpose of the tabs then is on the open side I am not sure. maybe later on in the build it will become clear

 

for your suggestion to open up the other side , would be an option if all the parts including the wine rack weren't positioned to be viewed from the current open side.

WEEK 24 - 28

 

brings all parts for the in and outside walls of the gun deck

 

most of the work is done, just need to put them in place. but that will have to wait till I receive the next shipment of my lights

 

I have made some holes in the outside walls to tread the wiring around the bulkheads

 

the inside wall is actually 3 pieces but after checking I can still slide it in I put them all together and planked them.

 

I am almost out of those left over strips (7x0.6x500) but I should have enough to finish the 4 doors and 2 bulkheads

 

hopefully I wont need any more from then on

you can see how i placed the wiring all in side the double wall

 

you can also see that i broke several of the top bits off :(. lots of repairs to do after this deck is done

 

now i can add the outside wall and finish off week 24-28

WEEK 29 - 31

 

first week all the parts for the 4 doors

 

so far i have planked and stained them and added the metal grid . the hinges and door knob will finish these off

 

next week the parts for the bulkheads and 5 of the lanterns

 

bulkheads are planked and stained and i added supports at the back so i can easily fit in the doors

 

the last week brings some reinforcement for the stern. i have stained them but will not put them in place until they are needed as i know i will break off the top parts

 

after this weekend i am all caught up and the next shipment is not due til end of the month i think.

 

from then on this build will slow down again and i will be starting up again on the G|F

Hi Adriaan,

 

Ouch, that damage looked as though it hurt, hope it's not too difficult to fix.

 

Nice use of the lights mate, she's going to look special when she's finished.

 

Be Good

It's a small world as they say and we appear to have the same taste in ships. Here are some pics of a 1:72 Revell kit called "Pirate Ship" that I'm trying to finish. In reality, it is the Black Pearl with a white swan if that makes any sense. I think there was some copyright/licensing issue with Disney such that Revell had to call it something else.

WEEK 32 - 34 all the parts for the gratings on the lower deck. I have them all assembled which wasn't easy. the edges are laser cut in mdf and when removing the burn stains I broke several of them. luckily I got them all back together without it showing. I haven't glued them on yet.
