igorcap reacted to Mike Y in Beavers Prize 1777 by Mike Y - 1:48 - POF - Hahn style
Latest updates:
Got a shipment of cast cannons (from http://shipmodels.com.ua/) andanchor and also a cnc milled figurehead (from igorcap)
Very little time for modelling, but briefly visited Paris to admire the great collection of fully framed models in its maritime museum.
Still fairing the inside of the hull. The "planked" side fairing is finished, but the "prime" fully opened side will take more time.
It is a nasty process, I will really follow a traditional build sequence next time - fairing bow and stern first, before midship is assembled.
Out of all my tools, just two are usable for it - curved scraper and a similarly shaped sanding block. Also some xacto blades for a fine scraping later during the process:
Found a super simple way to keep the dust away - two sheets of paper - and it is collecting under the hull, not getting onto the floor. Also looks spooky
These parts are really tricky due to very convex curves:
My frame alignment was not perfect, some ended up too thin, but I will cheat a beat and leave them slightly unfair on the internal side - it would be hard to see anyway.
Lesson for the future - build in the upright position, where it is much easier to control the alignment of the thin top timbers.
If building in Hahn way, upside down - leave a lot of margin around top timbers, where they are thin and sensible to misalignment, when you cut the frames.

I did a lot of photos during work.
1st pfoto - test milling of pears
2nd photo shows error of combining parties in turn. I had to change machine coordinate search technique for more accurate processing
3rd photo - final figure after CNC

igorcap got a reaction from aviaamator in Head figure for Oliver Cromwell
Now I want to continue working. I do not like the old decor. Now I have learned to do a lot better. I started to model head figure. This is the Roman goddess Juno (the first name of the vessel). This is only a sketch, without detailing.

I finished production of Juno head figure for model Oliver Cromwell in scale of 1:48 from boxtree.
Technological chain of next - 3D model, then CNC milling, then hand finishing.
First time I tried 4-axis milling. It was harder than I thought, but I coped

igorcap got a reaction from JosephHuntley in Head figure for Oliver Cromwell
Probably every modeller wants to build a model in the Navy Board style. In 2004 I started to model the American privateer Oliver Cromwell in 1/48 ( original built in 1776). Model is built on drawing from Harold Hahn's book "Ships of the American Revolution and their models". The model is not completed at this time.
