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

Thank you very much Denis and Piet,
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.
Patrick

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 ...
