ppddry got a reaction from PeteB in HMS Pandora 1779 in 3D
Thank you, Mark, Tony, and Gaetan.
Gaetan, it is indeed much easier to visualize the parts in 3D and it helps to resolve some contradictions between different 2D drawings. I am still working on the model, but slowly. I will try to render a picture showing as if someone is inside soon.

Thanks WackoWolf. No plan for building her in wood yet, but it is definitely possible!

Thank you, David!
At the beginning I was not sure about how to draw this in 3D either. And I tested quite a few methods until I found the one that works for me.

Gaetan, this is for you.
Inside the great cabin, looking aft.

2013-03-10&11: waist rails, sheer rails, drift rails, fife rails, plank sheers, cutting the external planking above the main wale into individual pieces
This is the progress up to now. Enjoy!

Thank you everyone for the kind words!
Bava, at the beginning I came across this model of the Pandora (It seems that it was built by Woodeater and/or his friends. By the way, does anyone know whether Woodeater has come back to MSW 2.0? It is always a pleasure to see his and his friends’ builds.):

http://forum.modelsworld.ru/topic8068.html
I was amazed by the details of this model and decided to build a similar one in 3D, thus this project.
WackoWolf, I worked on this project intermittently and it took me about two years to get to this point. You can do it a lot faster if you draw something everyday.
John, I am looking forward to see your project!
