Welcome to MSW. Would also like to see your photos Greetings -
Impressive what you do with plastic. I have been building plastic military kits for more than 30 years myself (kits, semi scratch and scratch). This is great work and really worth following.

I found this buildlog on a Dutch forum. Impressive model. Of course with Dutch text but with nice pictures. http://www.modelbouwforum.nl/threads/hms-victory-caldercraft-1-72.205911/ http://www.modelbouwforum.nl/threads/hms-victory-caldercraft-1-72.205911/page-23

Beautiful planking. I have the same idea to use Plexiglas as a base. But I have not reached that point yet. I am therefore curious about your working method and the result. Good work.

Thanks, I'm doing my best. LOL 😂 I do not like sports. The only "sport" i do is rifle shooting (completely legal according to all Belgian laws of course!!)

The following parts are ready and installed. From now on, the shipyard is on hold for a while. I have had pain in both arms for some time. Doctor's conclusion: tennis elbow on both arms, so rest for a while, no model building, no gardening... grrrr. Thanks for following, And it is not because the shipyard is on hold, that I will not be active on this forum

Marius, I made holes in the hull and then glued the gunport surrounds into these holes. Then they are sanded flat with the hull. Ik maakte gaten in de romp en kleefde daar de kanonpoorten in. Daarna zijn deze mee vlak geschuurd met de romp. I glued pieces of wood behind the gunports. This method proved to be very cumbersome. Gluing pieces of plywood between the frames is much easier, and paint the inside black. You can find this method in several logs.k Ik lijmde houten blokjes achter de kanonpoorten, deze methode is zeer onhandig. Lijm stukken triplex tussen de spanten en schilder deze zwart. Je vind deze methode beschreven in verschillende bouwlogs. Normally under the waterline, the color is white. Normaal is de kleur onder waterlijn wit One of the reasons why the Vasa sank so quickly was too little depth. Eén van de redenen waarom de Vasa zonk was te weinig diepgang.

Hello, Started with re-making the wrongly made pieces. The same method has been used to make them. The discs are made of plastic. After painting, the discs are mounted without glue. The hole is now also being drilled trough the discs. That way I drill in the center of the disk. And secured with a brass pin. Extra detail painted and ready for assembly. The height ratio of the piece to the model and the size of my assistant is much better now. To be continued. Thanks for following.

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
