It would be great if that nice little launch could be bought as a seperate kit so you can use it on different ships. It think there is a good market for! Great progress on the Flirt! Curious at the end result!

New 1:48 HMS Endeavour out later this year
Ronald-V replied to James H's topic in Wood ship model kits
The Endeavour in 1:48 is a nice scale! I'm curious how big it's going to be. -
What's your favorite way to scribe a line in the wood, for example the lines/seams you see on a ships bow piece. This picture is from the Winchelsea build of Chuck here on the forum, and probably build with separate pieces, but you get an idea about the lines. I'm busy with a little piece of wood on the deck and I need to have some nice lines on it, but it doesn't go well

Great build so far! I always liked this ship appearance, and also because I live in Friesland, but it's quite a monster to tackle.

You are doing a very...very clean build! Really nice to see

Hello people! I have a question regarding the Pegasus deck plan. I've already mentioned it in my build log, but thought I had more chance on clarification here. https://modelshipworld.com/topic/23098-hms-pegasus-by-mugje-amati-164-second-build/page/6/ The question was regarding a king plank for the HMS Pegasus on the main gun deck. There is a king plank on the beautiful renderings of the 3D Swan class Model that I showed in my log. And also if I look at the wonderful Vulture that Dan Vadas build, there is a king plank too. But like Blue Ensign stated in my build log: " the king plank was only used on the lower deck, raised 1" above the others to take the deck beam pillars, with the edges chamfered. This of course doesn't feature on the Pegasus kit. The centre line plank of the lower deck is thicker to take the tenons of the deck beam pillars, but there's no such purpose for the upper deck." So do someone has a definitive answer? Or does that not exist in the wonderful ship modeling hobby

Nice build again! I'm curious how it proceeds . I like that Chris uses a lot of bulkheads in his designs.
