Nice bit of info about model drawings in this exchange, thanks Anthony. Prices are out of my league though. I would like to build a Dutch fishing vessel, "botter", but may have to draw up my own plans. I have the lines.
Your oar looks really good Nils, quite a heavy one for a one man job.

Beautiful scroll work Nils, did you handsaw that out with your antique scroll saw? I would be crazy enough to do that. Regardless, it with the mermaid makes for an eye catching added feature. Very attractive.

That looks like a very difficult build Jan but you seem to have a handle on it. The paint scheme at the start of the war with Japan was after the English method. This was due to the Dutch fleet came under command of the English in Singapore. I came across a photo of 1940 with the De Ruyter in camouflage livery. The light parts of the hull is in light grey and the dark parts are in dark grey. The superstructure is in a medium grey with with dark grey accents. Boris Mulenko from "PacificCrossRoads666@list.ru suggests UA631 Admiralty Dark Grey, UA 632 Medium Grey. UA 633 Pale Grey and UA 622 Dark Grey.
I have attached two pics, one is the English way as shown on Hr. Ms. Java, the other is a pic of Hr. Ms. de Ruyter in 1940 livery.
I'm sure you will hit Mr. Google for a search but the photo I got from www.nederlandsnavy.nl Cruisers/Ruyter -balarat.jpg
I hope this helps and cheers,

Very nice progress JesseLee. Your netting looks just fine and I'm especially impresed by how great the ship's boat came ot. The hearts look equally marvy and don't fret about the ropes being a tad too large, it seems you are managing alright.
