  1. I painted on the hull of the false doors of the guns. Mauro
  2. I finished the planking and I almost finished painting the hull, at the same time I'm building the cutter of the brig. The kit provides only 2 boats metal, it will build 7 (as in the original) using very thin strips of wood. Not sure of being able to sell all the boats on board, maybe I'll have to discard some. Mauro
  3. I built a small boat to lay on the deck, in the coming days will clothe with strips of walnut. Mauro
  4. Thanks Bob, we hope that the sailors did not drink the contents of the barrels !!!!!!!Mauro
  5. Hi Carl, you're right, I'll have to pass a piece of rope on the barrels to simulate the binding.Mauro
  6. Thanks Nils, I do not know if the barrels will be seen in the finished work ......... I hope so !!!Mauro
  7. I finished the cover of the bridge and I placed some barrels in a part of the hold. These barrels will remain visible in the case of the hatch opening. Originally I wanted to leave visible on both sides of the hold but I decided to place over the hatch a small boat, so on the one hand the hold will remain closed over the boat. Mauro
  8. Hi Matija, for the deck I used strips of European maple.Mauro
  9. Hello Doris, congratulations for the work on your model and best wishes for your new job working !!! Mauro
  10. I started to play the bridge of my saettia. Mauro
  11. Hi Matija , I have the kit of the trabakul, and soon it will build even I, needless to say I will use the pictures of your wonderful work to try to make a model like yours, congratulations !!! Mauro
  12. Thanks Hartmut, follow with attention your model, all the boats typical of my land interest me very much, especially those that are made by modelers in other countries. Good luck with your Pinco.Mauro
  13. Thanks Matija, even I follow with interest your beautiful work !!! Best wishes to you for a happy Christmas and a wonderful New Year !!! Mauro
  14. Hi Doris, congratulations for your xebec, spectacular as always, I hope that Santa bring me a gift of a little bit of your talent !!! Many wishes for a happy Christmas by Mauro
  15. Hi Hartmut, the saettia should be, in my opinion, the ancestor of pinco , the similarities are many. Time ago I realized I also a model of "Pinco Genovese", I am attaching a photo, even if it is of good quality. I wish to make a beautiful model !!! Wishes for a happy Christmas to you and all members of the forum and your family.Mauro
  16. Hi Nils, my sails are all sewn by hand, do not have a sewing machine ....... and do not know the use !!! The sails may look a little different from each other just because they are hand sewn and the seams, despite the efforts, are slightly different from each other. Once finished the work on the sails hope that a pass with the iron makes them more uniform. Reciprocate the good wishes, I wish you and your family and friends a Merry Christmas !!! Mauro
  17. The sails of the foremast and mainmast almost finished. Mauro
  18. When the scale is large enough build the blocks of my sailing ships, here are the first pieces ...... Mauro
  19. I almost finished the seams of the mainsail. Mauro
  20. The seam of the sails, work in progress .... Mauro
  21. Hi, you have to search on Google "Lettie G. Howard plans", there is enough material to build your model !!! Mauro
  22. I started to prepare the sails ... Mauro
