Hello Marc, I found your build randomly and i'm delighted what I see. Another colourful ship! Today I was in in Lüneburg and I saw these portals who reminded me to your model. The Rath's Pharmacy from 1598, and there is still a Pharmacy in it And the House of a council family … Built in 1568 with a Renaissance portal.

Hello, and many thanks for all the likes and comments. Mark and Greg, that are I think double doors. Here the 60 gunner ca 1745 and the Yarmouth 1748 And here the draught for the York 1753 and Medway 1755 and the 1745 establishment. There was there the quarter for the officers, not the captain.

Hello, a small update. The carpenters where busy and build the window frames. But before we could install them, we have to build the next floor for the galleries. So, it may take some time before I'm back here. Why do fall small objects alway to the wrong side, or turn in the opposite direction you want to turn them That was not my day.

Hello, another step forward is done. Most of that what I have build here, you would't see afterwards. So I held it simple. After a lot of brainstorming, I decided to build now the windows and working forward.

Hello, and many thanks for your comments and likes, they are very appreciated. I'm at least always busy with painting! But this time more relaxed. I painted all the deck beams and the walls of the galleries.

Hello Greg, have a look at the model SLR0219 from 1715 at the NMM. That is the original from which I copied the design. Until the seven years war, or a little longer it was also at tobacco tins or powder horns used this way. Revolutionary powder horns had then print letters. here two Iserlohner tobacco tins from my collection, Fredericus Rex and Georgius Rex by Hamer, 1762.

Hello, and many, many thanks. Today I hope I finished that chapter. I do not like this painting very much. On these round surfaces is it extremely hard to paint a strait line! So, don't look too sharp. Without glasses you did't see the faults. Next would be the interior of the upper gun deck. With the windows of this deck I start when the beams of the quarter deck are laid.

Hello, after now around the house and garden is all in perfect order and the weather is rainy and cold (11°C) I have no more excuses not to paint the counter. So I started with it today. And before I forget it, many thanks for all the likes and comments I got from you Another interesting thing that I found in Falconers dictionary under coat. For me it's too late to install it, but may be for others it comes to the right time.

Thank you Nils. Jaager, I looked back to page 32 of this thread and did't find any like from you. Did't you like what I'm doing? But what I would say mainly, I'm surprised of all these likes I did't noticed, because the came sometimes months after my post. Many, many thanks for that.

Hello and thank you Gary, and all others for there likes. It is done, the lower finishings are build in. Painting them was very difficult, but also that is done.
-
Hello and thank you again for all the likes and nice comments. today I finished the second lower finishing I made it one and a half time. Don't ask me But now it's done Tomorrow I will start with painting them. The left is the new one.
-
Hello, and many thanks for your likes and nice words. Now after fine tuning for some hours, I think I'm ready with the first one. Because some are interested what kind of tools I use, at the last picture you will see most of them.
-
Hello, the first lower finishing is now more or les ready. And that is it. But some small corrections I have to make, when I look so at the pictures.
-
Hello, and thank you Mark and Nils, today only a small update. The finishings now smooth and ready for carving.
-
Hello, the weather gets cooler, so the carpenters where busy today and cut out the lower finishings. then fitted these pieces to the ship and at last cut out the approximate shape The shipwright was pleased with the result.
-
Hello, after we had last week 17-19°C as highes temperatures, we have today 27°C and it should go up to the 30s! Is that normal? So at the shipyard was not so much action. The upper rail did't really cooperate, and with the paint it was the same But for now I think it is done. Tomorrow I would start with the lower finishings.
-
Hello, so far for today. The counter is planked. For tomorrow stands more sanding on my plan. Theodosius, thank you for your nice comment Jaager, I'm sorry, but I could't follow you. At the windows are no right angles and nothing is horizontal or vertical, except at the window in the middle. The paper at the plywood is from the original plan, so I think I'm right when I'm building it this way. At my post #1006 you will see a larger part of the plan. Jaager, I know what I'm doing here, if not I ask.
-
Jaager, this is a model. Not a ship that should round Cap Horn. This model will see water only fall from heaven through a window. So relax. And yes, not all beams going through in one piece. I had to cut them and rearrange some of them. And what you call a transom, is a plank when I understand you right. Are there somewhere pictures of your models here in the forum? I found only the La Renommee and that is just the hull, together with some others.

Hello, Greg, it rained the whole night. Was that your work? So far for today. When I saw the last picture, I know what I have to do tomorrow. Or immediately
-
That is unfair Greg. We had so much rain in July that we need more sun, not to get depressive. Then I would't leave my bed Last week I made a tour through the „Lüneburger Heide (heath)“, that was something that motivate me.
