  2. Thanks to Nils, all the Likes!!! Tody I had to takel Giannas jibsail. Before that I had to turn some belaynails. 3mm ramin is a good material for this job. And here the nails in place Gianna with all sails Next days I will modell all the little parts like cargo and finish the dinghy. Cheers Hartmut
  3. Thanks, Patrick! There are to projects. First will be the Statenjacht Utrecht. I have got two wonderfull books over this ship and scratch building the modell from SeawatchBooks. Furthermore, I do research on plans for a galleon from the time of Queen Elisabeth1. Cheers Hartmut
  4. Ahoy, Mates, Modelling is more to me than just craftmansshipp, it is always a little dreaming. Some of the images are from this beautiful dream world. Best regards Hartmut

  6. Hi Nils, I think that your way of rigging will be an exampel for masterwork at my next projekt! Hartmut
  7. Thanks. John. You are right. Two sails, finishing the dinghy, and some details ( Cargo - barrels- sacks) and Gianna is ready. Kindly Hartmut P.s. The next build is in preparation, so it's time to finish the Gianna.

  12. Hello Sjors! Good workmanship you show there! I think that you are right. It's a long way to masting and rigging the Aga. But I will get up my chair and wait for the next pics. Best regards Hartmut
  13. Thanks to Patrick and all who "liked" it. I had sails on a model 12 years ago. But a latin rigged ship without sails looks a little bit poor to my eyes. Fortunately my Admiral sewed the sails! I am very clumsy in needlework. Best regards Hartmut

  17. Hello Sjors! She comes very good,I must say. About the chimney: as I know the chimney can be turned. That.'s fx to be seen on HMS Victory. So it will be ok to show it in the position you choose on your Aga. Regards Hartmut
  18. Hello Dave! What a nice group of ships! best regards Hartmut
  19. The boomtackles of the mizzen boom. The anchorshanks and arms are made from 3mm PVC foam The anchorstocks are from wallnut and the hoops from 1,7mm soldering wire The served anchorrings The blocks of the latinyard hallyards: seven sheave blocks at main and fore mast, trebleblocks at the mizzen Pincos crew are only six hands and the skipper. Therefore they used such big tackles to work with the latin yards. Regards Hartmut
  20. Well, Cristiano, I am thinking about the next project. There are two favourites: a statenjacht or a xebec. I am searching for a good plan of xebec. Regards Hartmut

  23. The collection of riggin material for the shrouds. Gianna today. Best regards Angarfather
  24. Altough Gianna is a smal ship 110 blocks are needed. I made the violin blocks konventionel from one piece of wood. The others are glued up from layers of 1mm walnut stripes. One of the ready single blockstripes The result is a smal frame from walnut. The slices for the smal blocks are made from 3mm soldering wire. The slices for the other blocks are made from 4mm brass. Milling the groove for the blockstrops The results after some times of sanding Regards Hartmut
  25. Hello Dave, thanks for showing your way of makeing the pins. Very good! Next week I have to make 30 pieces. I will try it in your way. Best regards Hartmut
