amateur got a reaction from popeye the sailor in Arabia 1856 by Cathead - FINISHED - Scale 1:64 - sidewheel riverboat from the Missouri River, USA
No, that was not the point I did not understand.
I meant to say that when I look at that painting, I am struggling to see the back-end of the ship, so I don't understand how you conclude from that painting that there is not stepping in the superstructure.
Even more: the superstructure just behind the paddle wheel does step back...
Is there anything in the aerials made during the excavation that does give a clue in where the superstructure stood on the deck?

Hi Dan,
Good luck with your health!
I guess your sydney-version will be better than the Canon-free download version?
That one has stairs without even trying to do individual steps

Actually, I don't see how you can conclude on the stepping back aft based on an artist impression of the from side.....
having said that: I like the stepped back version more thatn the other one. Although a profit maximizing owner perhaps disagrees....

amateur got a reaction from peveka in Prins Willem by amateur - Corel - 1:100
Hi all,
I need to clean my desk, and to make some pics, but today the unthinkable has happened: I tied the last knot on my rigging.
Now, I need to make some sawdust for the remaining stuff:
I still need:
- guns
- gunport lids (including hinges, rings and ropes)
- lanterns
- anchors
- anchorrope
- anchor buoys
- flags
Not on the home stretch by far....

I guess that Smit Rotterdam had those copper coloured props. Still looking for a pic....
(which turned in something else due to heavy use, so: 'do you build 'as new', or 'at the end of her life'.
Here is 'new', unfortunately in BW-photography

amateur got a reaction from mtaylor in SPERWER by KORTES - FINISHED - 1:30 scale - Friescheboeier Yacht
Those are very nice birds!
I like your attention to the very small details.
just a question: you showed us a drawing in your fist post, but that drawing does not have this level of detail (at least not in the versions I know)
Where did you get all the additional detail: from an other drawing, or did you just eyeball those on the basis of pictures??

amateur reacted to Drazen in De Zeven Provinciën 1665 by Dražen - Scale 1:45
... and how it looks...
Note, this is the length of exact 90 mm. So, try to look at the real size on the screen to get the real impression.
