  1. Very nice work, and interesting to follow. A happy 2019 with a lot of model building.
  2. Very neatly made Ondras. For you and everyone that follows also a happy 2019
  3. I once had a Nissan Bleubird, with some "extra options" on it. Has brought me everywhere without problems for 14 years long. Happy new year to you and everyone here.
  4. You can use the individual tracks as spare tracks. These were often attached to the front or the side. These served also as extra armor. If you want to do this. let me know. Then I post some pictures. Sorry you had some problems with the teeth on your sprockets
  5. Indeed Your Vasa drawing (above) and the Mary Rose deck (below)
  6. Thank you Lawrence and Carl. In the meantime, I found a solution to make the drains for the deck. One has been done as a test. Source San Juan Whale ship.
  7. Thank you G.L. There will certainly be enough toothpicks left for the holidays. Steve, Thanks for the comment I certainly will not make a puzzle of it like the examples shown. The Golden Hind was probably not a real warship, but an armed merchantman. Specially built or rebuilt for this trip. Nobody knows that. Of course there will have been nicely planked decks then, and others will have been "less nicely". With the intention of my saying, no rules. I want to say : Nicely planked or with all possible leftovers planked. No one can say what is right or wrong for this period. All evidence is indeed at the bottom of the sea. As you can see, I keep the planking as neat as possible. Interesting topic
  8. great work Doris You are not only handy with card and other materials, but also with electricity. happy holidays from Belgium
  9. Hello, Started with planking of the deck General rules in 16th century deck planking : there are no rules, use all your wooden planks that you have left ... and is the deck waterproof, then it is good. some examples I also made a ladder. This will be glued on the model when the anchor cable is in place. The original planks were probaly nailed and the head of the nail was caulced. Planks are provided with treenails ( the caulcing) in advance and have already been colored once before glueing on to the model. Work in progress The third box of toothpicks.... Thanks for following and merry christmas
  10. oops. I planned to do something like this pattern with the deck of my Golden Hind. Thanks for the sketch, very interesting
  11. Welcome to MSW and greeting from Belgium.
  12. Good luck with your Victory kit
