  1. Good luck, i follow. http://www.fahrzeuge-der-wehrmacht.de/Artikel/Zgkw_18t.html http://www.kfzderwehrmacht.de/Homepage_english/Trailers/Special_trailers/Sd__Ah__116/sd__ah__116.html
  2. The front of the rear castle is built. Still needs to be painted, openings made for cannons, etc. Notice in the photo that the plank on the right side is a bit wider at the top (now fixed). An oversized ladder from the front castle is placed here. Now i first make the rudder and tiller. (from a "detailled" drawing and out a piece of cherrywood) The building slip is also adjusted to make room for the rudder Preparations. Two pieces sawn and milled. Gluing. Proportioned to a figure. Rudder and tiller largerly ready.
  3. A piece of wood with a hole of the correct diameter is very helpful for making the rings Dutch forum: Post in topic 'Oseberg - Ver. 3 - Pavel Nikitin - 1:25' https://www.modelbouwforum.nl/threads/oseberg-ver-3-pavel-nikitin-1-25.291805/post-4429549
  4. No, no, not a minor flaw. A unique model, for the following reason: Due to supply problems to the factory, part of the wing had to be camouflaged with a different kind of green. 😇 As always, beautiful work
  5. I make my masts as far in advance as possible, before placing them on the model. With blocks, eyebolts, etc. I do this while sitting at a table. The only reason for this is that my back is worn out, and this method is "backpain friendly".
  6. Again, thank you all for comments, following, and likes. Back to the rear castle. As already earlier discovered, the top is too wide and will therefore get in the way of the standing rigging. Cause: Used (incomplete) drawings and the builder's oversight. Notworries, there's a solution for everything. Threaded rods.. Tightening the threaded rods brings the top closer together Beams and knees are then glued Or beams and nails (bad photo) The front of the rear castle, work in progress And (40) shields for the swivels. All different sizes. and with a few of this shields installed.
