Somethig like HMS Bristol?

Jan

And this is the lion at the Batavia:

JHaving a crown was quite uncommong (The ZP is one of the few ships known with a crowned lion)

But Northam never had a fouth mast  ?....

Jan

Good point, I didn't realize ...

I don't think that narrows the search down, however....

Jan

guess again:

port jackson?

Jan

Problem is: four masted barques with gunport paterns were pretty standard around those days.....

Jan

Wild guess, as I can't find this specific picture: is it Moshulu?

Wild uess, as I can't find this specific picture: is it Moshulu?

You can do it like this, but....

after attaching the lanyards, it is hardly visible that you did the 'vertical' seizing.

Also: as the shrouds are far more playable that the Original stuff, puttin gthe whole thing at a ceratin amount of tension, tends to remove the little gap between the parts of the shroud.

But okay, mine is scale 1:100, so at larger scale it will probably visible.

But t's fun to do

The vertical throat seizing is not done differently from the 'normal' ones: make a small loop in the shroud, make the seizing, then insert the deadeye and fiddle around until it is at the correct height,

secure the seizing, and make a second (and third) one above the throat seizing.

Might as well be one of many new zealand or australian wool ships.....

Quite a few of those four masted ships have been build

Jan

Very nice indeed

Jan

He made room for it in advance, so I think he will.

Jan

I know the story (at least the MSW1-version of it)

Had a discussion with him on the place where to find drawings of both Java and O19 in the Dutch archives.

Jan

It is indeed HrMs Java down south.

You're pretty good in searching. Need to dig a bit deeper.....

Perhaps some obscure laker

Jan

No, not a tug. World has indeed turned upside down :)

Next one will be a tug.

Jan

Next one

Bingo: schooner reylands, rebuild as a brig (hispaniola) for the movie treasure Island.

Jan

Searching for ship+movie ends up in lots of pics of starship Enterprise, titanic or horation hornblower.

All three are not correct, I presume....

Jan

PS or pirates of the carribean, but it's certainly not the plack pearl

This will go into the anals of modelbuilding as the best Royal Caroline ever.

Jan

Sure you don't use Google picture search ?

It is Finland.

Jan

you should be able to recognize her

Actually, you're about halfway, by recognizing her as a dutch tug

Jan

Here's  my next one for you.

Jan

And don't stop too often, or you'll discover that every time you start is just like the first time....

Half an hour every three weeks isn't the right way to go (speaking from personal experience)

Jan

?

was there ever a movie on Minnesota?

It's the Russians: Potemkim
