Thanks to all for the kind words and the likes!
Next step was modelling the rudder.
Bevor I could install the rudder I had to paint the under water parts of the Utrecht
Next step was to make the rudder blade and the hinges
I havemade the hinges from 0,5mm brass with 2,1mm diameter bras tubes, soldered with silver.
The tiller, made from matall, goes from the rudder shaft under the pavillons bottom to the main deck.
At last the rudder after mounting
Best regards

Hello, mates!
we, my Admiral and me, returned from a 14 days journey on board of the Richard With, a ship of the norwegian HurtigRuten. A very impressive time from Bergen (Nor) to Kirkenes and back to Bergen.
But now its time to continue modelling the Utrecht. The last parts on deck. Some cleats and the skylight of the big cabin. To make this part was an most interesting job. It is eight cornerd.
ANd her is a pic all over the deck
Cheers Hartmut

Hello Guys!
Thanks for the kind words to my works!
Here again some pics of further details.
To make the railing around the stairs was a special pleasure, since I have not worked with metal for a long time. It's from 3 and 2mm brass, soldered with silver solder.
On the supports came still a few balls,which comes close to the baroque style.
And here are the other parts which are new on deck. Four cleats, two pin racks and the bearings of the leeboards
Have a nice weekend!
Cheers
Hartmut

Caboose chimney
Making the Sky light of the crew mess
In the evening the CEO of the company came along to visit the ship.
His was quite satisfied and invited the Crew to red vine.

Another step. Utrecht needs a stand now. I am rarely a minimalist. Only for the stands. Therefore I like to use plexi glass for this job.
It s from 6mm Plexi and a 9mm roundbeam, assembled with two M4 screws
My Admirals did say: Beautiful, she floats over the ground.

Bevor I can start to carve and bring in the figurhead (a lion ) I have to make some little parts to finish the bow.
The reinforcement of the stem to hold the loop for the gammoning ropes and the knee to support the sprit
The reinforcement is from 0,8mm brass. The loop from 2mm brass soldered into the brass sheet.
Besst regards Hartmut

Hello Mates!
The gallion painted.
Best regards Hartmut

To model the gallion is a little bit fiddly. The drawings doesn't show the real dimension of the rails and knees. So I started first to make the lower and upper knees.
After this I could find out the dimensions of the upper rail
Next job will be the carving of the filler and the figurhead.
Cheers Hartmut

After several weeks with carving, I now again have to made some technical parts of the Utrecht.
First the windlass
On board of the Utrecht the catheads and the windlass are one technical system. I have made it from swiss pear, the rolls are from brass
It was no problem to turn the shaft of the windlass from beech wood
Milling in the tooth ring of the backflow barrier
In position
Finished
Best regards Hartmut

Some pics from the finished decorations of the Windows.
Now I have to carve some figures. I tried at first to carve the two sea animals which will "live" on the reling. They are not so complicated as the galions lion and the others. They are named dolphins, but I think that they are typical baroque seamonsters.
Cheerio Hartmut

Last two days I practiced in drawing Acathus leaves. Today I tried to carve the middle part of the decoration rails. Since there is now exact drawing from the original, I have designed it by myself.

here are the to lower parts of the decoration rails in their final form.
Portside
Starbord
At the big Utrecht these parts are mirror-like. But I think that I will have to carve many times until I can make two of this parts wich are realy equal.

Now the adventure ( carving ) begins. My first trial the portside part of the Sterns decoration.
To protect my fingers I have glued the wood on a piece of balsa by double face tape.
Cheerio!

You are right, Nils. In contrast to the past the machine rooms are now almost oilfree and quite clean. But loud, very very loud, is it still there.
And last but not least: to look at your marvelous modell is a delight to the eyes.
Cheerio! Hartmut

Hello Nils,
indeed it was a wet and also cold job to work on the outside wheel stand. But that was the normal situation on such a Steamer. On the other hand it was nothing against the work in the rigg and on deck of the sailing ships. And then, what a feeling to drive his ship through storm, wind, snow and fog safely to her place in the harbor. On this steamers ,I think, the jobs of the coal trimmers and heaters were very hard. Very high heat, very much noise and very much dirt and very exhausting.
