    Update....
     
    putting in the three mast dummies in order to check the rake-angles... and the alignment
     
    for the canons I`ll be using the the carriages for 32 mm long barrels, but replacing the barrels with 40 mm long ones from RB, (this suits the scale 1:48 better)
    For doing so, the cap bearing points have to be overworked so that the barrel comes to sit a we bit higher and a bit more foreward on the trucks...
     
    Nils
     

    the bearing caps are made of brass-tube and a short bit of U-profile soldered together
     

     
     
     
     

     
    here the 32 mm barrel compared with the 40 mm one
    The ship will carry 14 guns on the main deck and 6 swivels on the poop deck
     
     
     

    foremast sockets, mast will be made from 8 mm square
     

    main mast from 10 mm square
     

    mizzen mast from 6 mm square
     

    rakes, angles and alignment set

    I know its an early phase to do the stand at this status already, but it keeps the model safe and and out of the way when not working on...

    Hi Carl
     
    Many thanks. Yeah, I reckon some of Igor’s ships could easily fit inside Shadow. Amazing stuff Igor does; that’s for sure!
     
    I wish I could spend more time working on Shadow, but getting the time to do it, is getting increasingly difficult. Oh well... such is life I guess. 
     
    Have a great week!
     
    Cheers.

    Hmmm, it is always a surprise once you get at it again. Nice details my friend. Though slightly larger than Igor's builds, still stunning detail! Wish you could spend some more time on Shadow ...
