The ships stand is ready, currently with a temporary name on it. the planking above wale 3 went quite smoothly. But, The frame of section 1 is strongly bent inwards at the top. And the stem is straight at the top. This result is an unnatural shape of the hull So, removing these planks and start again for attempt 2. The advantage of PVA glue is that it softens again if you carefully apply isopropyl alcohol to the glue seams. The planks can then be removed fairly easily. Surgery... Attempt 2 : better But... I think I tapered the planks between wale 2 and 3 too much. Wale 3 currently has no smooth line. I'm considering attempt 3 (this means more redoing)

In English would be nice. Golden Hind?? (And the name Baker is purely coincidental) https://modelshipworld.com/topic/14188-pelican-later-renamed-as-golden-hind-by-baker-finished-scale-145-galleon-late-16th-century/#comments

The base plate Now that the hull is still easy to handle, the base plate is first made. The material is oak (recycled) Components Base is glued and sanded Determine the shape of the supports Work in progress Thanks for following

Planking update The planking between wale 2 and 3 is ready and has received a first sanding. The intention is to apply 3 more strakes above wale 3 and then sand the hull further and finish it with nails, treenails, etc. Part of the plywood bulkheads are also removed.

First, congratulations on this beautiful model. To add a lantern or not, difficult question. This is how I made my lantern. (Post 24)

indeed, And this is also an indication that this ship was built to last for a long time.

No a post about progress, but solving a "wale mistery". In a previous post I was annoyed by the strange shape of the wale. well, solution found. the notch at the top does have a reason. This prevents water on the wale from seeping in between the seam of the wale and the plank above it. Source : Het statenjacht Utrecht.

Small update The planking of the starboard side goes smoothly. The bulk heads are adjusted in advance and the frames of the cannon ports were already partly made. It's simply taking the dimensions from the port side to the starboard side and start planking. and the laser also comes in handy. I had some sawing work for another project and so I sawed wood for the base plate. Thanks for following
