Planking at the bow is tapered. Forget YouTube for a moment and read some PDFs first.

Remember,  planking is not a race. 

First

read the pdf'S,

then think how you gowing to do the planking,

then try if the plank fits

and only then gleu the plank on the model.

Because applying the wheels and tracks is a delicate job, this is being done now.
Step by step and partially painted.

Ready to continue painting and mounting the skirts

For a first time planking, very good.

But

Take your time for the second planking, this will largely determine the appearance of your model later.
Also take a look at your cannon ports, they don't all seem the same size on the picture

So much better 😉

Congratulations
Nice work Rock

Encourages me to go a little further

Looks good.

I would give it a try with the Scotchbrite sponge. this is smoother and softer than sandpaper.

Best is to "practice" on a waste piece first

And a Hetzer, finished and tagged.

Thanks for following, likes and comments during this build

Have you ever thought about a light "sanding" with some Scotch Brite?

(the little sponge you use to wash dishes)

@md1400cs

Thanks Michael 

But keep in mind that 1mm treenails for 1/50 scale is the limit.
Actually, they are already a bit too big for this scale

@Roger Pellett

Thanks Roger

The shape of the hull also surprised me.
I actually expected a plump hull. But the hull of this ship is indeed very elegantly built.

In the reviews of the latest version of Google Chrome, there are users who have the same problems as me (on other websites).
And I have that latest version

.

Well,

We have 2 Samsung A22

• The settings are exactly the same on both devices.
• Both phones are connected to the same Google account
• On one, Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge work both perfectly
• On the other Chrome doesn't work, but Edge does.
• Why?? 

So for this problem, changing to another browser is for me the easiest solution

@Knocklouder do not by a new phone 

@James H  Can I click on my own post, as "mark as solution"?

Building the chassis

The base: the bottom and 2 sides was a challenge

The next parts even more. (That's why it stayed in the box on the shelf for so long....)

With time and patience . There is a chassis.

Thanks for following

Hello @Baker when you find out please let me know, as I am about to go buy a new phone and it won't be a Samsung  lol. My phone has been doing this for two days now . Most annoying  🙄  lol

further findings.
Don't buy a new phone yet.

On my Samsung smartphone, MSW works perfectly via Microsoft Edge. Try this first.

msw via Google Chrome is still a problem for the time being.

Nice start. I follow also
And yes, I have also glued my fingers with CA glue.
Advice, take your time. Building a wooden model is not a race

As this seems to be a Samsung thing that has only just cropped up, then that is the issue. There's absolutely zilch can be done from my side. 

 

It's not unheard of for phone/tablet software to update and cause issues with a website, so hopefully that will be either something they fix soon, or maybe a future forum template can take into consideration if Samsung fail to sort their bad code out.

Thank you for looking into this.
Apparently the problem is in my smartphone.
My wife has the same A22 as me and on this phone i dont have this problem.

I guess I'll have to solve this myself.
To be continued, I will let you know if I find the solution

My phone is a Samsung A22
He did an update on 28 november. But the problems only started yesterday afternoon.

(Now I use my laptop)

Really weird
When I watch MSW as a "guest" everything is normal.
When I log in, problems 

Since this afternoon, MSW looks like this on my Samsung smartphone.
No settings have been changed and the phone has been restarted

congratulations.
Nicely done. Your customer will certainly be happy with this model 

There is a 3D topic on MSW

Good progress! Had you considered using a  drawplate for forming treenails?

Yes, but :

but I was a bit lazy.
If I have calculated correctly. I need at least 30 meters of treenail material, only for the hull ( one side was 15 meter)

Not so far away from Verrebroek 

Small "two-week" update 
location the location of the holes, drilling the holes and hammering treenails : a slow but steady work in progress
