  3. Hey tom good to see you've made some progress Like always she's looking good think on my girl I'll just stick with poly my wife likes the color I understand about snow in the negatives it's just now looking like spring especially when it snowed last week Can't wait to see how your girl turns out Are you using the premade stern cabin windows
  4. The only problem I have is I'm not a scratch builder so I would need a kit is there one out there that looks like these plans
  5. Ok got those specs didn't figure the big ship was her what would this girl look like since I am a complete noob when it comes to ships
  6. All I can find is she was originally a packet ship owned by the royal navel and was captured by the Spanish I'll try to find some specifications
  7. Hey guys and gals been trying to do some research on which model on the market would closest resemble the princess royal it discovered the pugit sound as the princesa real during its capture by the Spanish My parent in laws love on one of the island and I would like to pay them tribute by building that ship thanks
  8. This is where she is at now hopefully I'll start the painful process of ports this weekend thanks for the advice mtaylor
  9. Sorry guys nothing new to add I have had company in for the last week so building has been on stand by hoping to get all the planking finished by the weekend a little nervous about cutting out the gun ports if anyone has any recommendations on how to do it safely and to ease nerves please oh please let me know a lot of time and effort to do the best planking I could just to cut holes in it scares me lol hopefully after the planking is done and the ports are cut I can get a lot assembled since I've been working on a lot of the deck furniture on the side maybe she will start looking like a ship soon

  11. Thanks joe for the input I appreciate it
  12. Ok guys after hours and hours of thought reading and planning I'm almost positive that I'm not doing the best job but it's looking to me to be shaping up into a fair rendition of what a ship should look like any thoughts?
