Thank you No Idea.
The last decoration is added at the end of the mainrail and the head is completely finished. Next parts will be channels, chains, deadeyes etc.

ChrisLBren reacted to yancovitch in Soleil Royal by yancovitch
though not a build log as such, i thought i'd share something i've imagined for many many years, at which time, i partly put together a heller soleil royal........i disliked the hull so much, i gave it away....i really don't know if i can do this but i'm sure gonna have fun trying.....will probably be my swan song 😁
and now, marc,neko, was kind enough to share his lines, and i got all inspired again...and marc, hubac, found me a good deal on a kit, which i'm expecting in a few days....
sooooooo....i put the hull together and found a pic of the top bulwarks.....i'll have to wait for the kit to see if i can make it all come together.....mostly working on the revell constitution now, so it will be a while before things come together.....dream on vic dream on....

Thanks for all comments and likes. The front part of the model is practically done except for a few details.

Turbine room completed - I have a lot of respect for the plastic modelers out there - took me a week to get it right. Also overall shot of the ship

Underside of the Superstructure deck - fully wired into the circuit board. Lets hope it works ! Latest full profile photo - I am halfway thru pack 8 of 12.

Pack 5 is completed out of 12 - this model at this stage has more wires than our Christmas Tree. I should be testing many of the functions in the next Pack. Forward superstructure complete - second turret "Bruno" added.

So I added a comparison photo of 1/2 the length of Bismarck @1/200 scale compared to the WVH @ 1/50 -crazy how long this beast will be when completed.

Thanks Rod - its a fun build. I think the Amati model is terrific too - probably more accurate and detailed than the Agora version and less expensive. The electronics sold me though !

Update ! Unlike wood ship models - working with multi media is more like a jigsaw puzzle - very relaxing and easy. Here's the results of the first three packs, forward deck, first of four Arado plans and the "Anton" turret. I need to install the motor/electronics in the "Anton" forward gun turret next.
Agora is terrific as far as customer service - if you damage or break a part they will send you a replacement ASAP. The metal hull parts are terrific - she will be almost 4 feet long when completed.

Here's the front turret and anchors in action after being wired. This is just test of the motors- sound chip will be added later and fuller range of motion for the anchors.
