I have begun to build the sails.
i have had a quick lesson in stitching as this kit does not supply completed sails.
it’s been a good challenge and here is my first sail.

Snoepert reacted to Tim Moore in HMS Bounty by Tim Moore - FINISHED - Artesania Latina - 1/48
I started this build a couple of weeks ago and am just catching up with my posts as I just joined the modelshipworld community....from here on I'll try and keep it current in real time. Finished the lower deck assemblies, cabins and some stairs. The Latina instructions arent perfect but there's enough information to get the job done. Just the main deck to do and then structure is complete and it's on to the dreaded planking phase...mostly 2x5 walnut planking it looks like, but some pretty aggressive curvature is required. If anybody has any genius advice on a preferred method of bending planks please do pass on, I'd appreciate knowing how you have done it and any tips. I've done a few but always seems a struggle to avoid breakage.

Lower decks and hold well fabricated and installed. Cut the planking into 6" sections to replicate a 25' plank at 1/48 scale. Frame seems a little more fragile than I'd like but hopefully will be more stable when the upper beams and deck are in place.

Hi all. Recently completed the Miss Severn by Legend model boats, but can't yet get it on the water seeing as it is winter here in the great white north. My winter+ project is the Latina 1/48 Bounty. Should look good beside Cook's Endeavour on my display shelves when complete. It's a single plank on frame design with an exposed interior below decks rather than the usual double planking on plywood bulkheads. Created a simple plywood building slip to ensure the hull stays true during construction, and decided to paint the ribs maritime white to provide contrast with all the timber and flotsam that will be on display below decks. Not the walnut finish suggested by Latina but I've seen a museum model done this way and it was a beauty.
