Many thanks to all!
Next job was modelling the cabin doors.
To make the door handles was no big problem. I did solder a 1mm brasswire into a 2mm brasstube.

The crew mess is done, and so I can install the deck beams above. A particularly interesting point for I had to make the frame of the the skylight.
After some thought, I'll plank the deck only on the starboard side. So the interior is still to be seen. Therefore I have the knees of the deck beams on the portside installed from here. The frames of the wals of the Great Cabin Cheers Hartmut -

Making the interrior.
First I made the crew's mess to exercise. The walls were built in the carpenter manner.
At first the base and the stems, which are then filled with plywood.
Messdoor To find out the right color scheme is not so easy. In the Baroque intensive colors were typical . According to historical sources, and also the pictures from the construction of the replica I use carmine red, cadmium red, light yellow ocher, dark green and prussian blue. This colours were combined with gold at the Statenyacht. After several attempts I did now use tempera by Schminke and Lucas. Carmine red for the stems, cadmium red for the walls and yellow ocher for the floor in this area Cheers Hartmut -

Almost three weeks I had some trouble with pneumonia. No fun for an old boy. But now I am better and the modelling will go on. Slow but with fun.
The deck beams from the bow to the mast.
That's the time to make the pinrail. The woodparts are from 5mm pear and the sheaves from 6mm brass. Some steps in modelling the nail rail
Cutting and drilling the sheaves
Ready
From here to stern I will modell the interior of the ship. Crew mess, staircase and than the Great Cabin.

After prolonged reflection I will furnish only the large cabin and the pavilion with interiors. Added to this are the stairs to the cabin and the foredeck

Modelling Gianna or Aga I had used 0,50 / 1mm planks. At the Utrecht I use pearwood 12mmx2mm.To work with this kind of planks was a new experience. They are very hard and difficult to form.
Now the outsite planking is finished. Here are some pictures from yesterday.

ere is a little update.
I have the transom again revised. Because of the strong grain of the wood the planks angle is barely visible. As said earlier, I will represent the caulking after grinding. Overall, it's an entirely different matter 2mm thick planks to shape and install. In my other models I have double planked hulk. And the plank thickness was only 0.75 mm.
Here the current results of the work

Modelling the wales.
To determine the location of the main wale I did use a copy of the sheer profile plan.
The location of the main wale
This copy was the base for modelling the wales.
I wasn't able to bend the bow parts of the wales, about it I have made it by sawing. I bend the long parts of the wales and later on the planks after immersing it in water. For the heat I use a soldering iron with a surface designed for bemding modelplanks
The distanz between the main and lower wale is one plank.

Keel and stems are in place. There were some pieces of wood, therefore I have made the rudder of it.
sawn
sanded
Next step was to mortise the timber transoms in place, and planking the square tuck. In addition, this work should be made well before planking.
to model the Wing transom was a nice and fiddly job.
The finished square tuck

Thanks to all likes and to Patrick and Ioannis.
After I had finished sanding work I gluede in the keelsom to stabilise the frames.

Next step: the stems and the keel

This had been the frames after glueing in the fillers.
After this there were some hours of sanding .
The bowsection after first sanding.
During installation of the bow the laser was a good help again
And thats the Utrecht after many hours of dust and noise. But I think that it could be reasonable certain usefull
Best regards Hartmut

Many centuries watertransport was the fastest and most comfortable way of traveling on the coasts and along the big rivers in Europe. By towing with horses along the rivers and canals. By sail across the open waters.
The statenjacht was the Rolls Royce of this passenger ships. Used to move fx company executives or other VIPs from place to place to execute their jobs.
It was the time of the Barroque. So this ships were fitted out with most comfortable state cabins, bedrooms, kitchens, and last but not least magnificently decorated.
At first I had in mind to build the HMY Mary from 1670. Only her decorations and paintings were very complicated.
The Utrecht, however, seems to me a bit simpler decorated. Moreover, in the books of Seawatch books are very good plans of this ship.
I build the Utrecht in scale 1:36. As POF model. However, I'm doing the frames of10mm plywood. Since the frames are not seen through the planking, solid wood is too good for this job in my eyes.
Some shots from yesterday.

Small update.
Installing the mastfeet (mastfoot)
I first had the idea to replace some of the bolts of the mast feet with eye bolts. But later decided not to do this, just bolts.
The fore and bowsprit foot was a bit complicated, and i needed three parts for this.
Mizzen mast
Main mast, with pumps installed
Fore mast and bowsprit (pumps are not glued here)
Thanks for following

Hello guys!
The summer 2018 was to warm to stay in the dockyard for modeling. It was a good time for barbecue, swimming and lazing around with old friends sitting in the garden enjoying an ice-cold beer. And last but not least there were to wunderfull journeys together with my admiral to the Lofoten islands in Norway and the Møn Island in Danmark.
In the last two weeks the planking was done. Here are some pics of the Golden Hind today.
Best regards
