  1. No problem. Both Source (Yes, a carrack, not a galleon. But the principle is the same)
  2. Nice sails. My idea was to attach 3 to the fore sail and 5 to the main sail See Link to post 643 in Pelican build
  3. While searching through old photos I found this one. A much younger me and a Tiger tank. La Gleize Belgium 1992 Link to the museum http://www.december44.com/en/the-museum.htm
  4. Continue with the rigging of the spritsail Added some rope coils. And some blocks that are not in use because the spritsail is stored. Also added a bucket Spritsail and yard ready And in position. The idea is to tie it up (yellow line). My experience with sailing is minimal (1 trip with little wind and calm water). But what I have learned was: everything that is loose starts to swing around and cause problems later.. Thanks for following
  5. Nice work. But don't forget that Vasa wasn't painted blue (as recommended on the billibgs instruction) but red
  6. I would like to help, but all my spare tank parts are 1/72 scale Nice work on this Patton 👍
  7. Finishing The model has a little dry brushing of light grey and a little wash of thinned black. The original was only a prototype and never saw service. In the role it was designed for. A mobile observation Post for artillery (in this case the AT-1) Thanks for following this build.
  8. Thanks, no camo. This is a model of a prototype. No camo, no rust, no wear.
  9. Al parts glued on the model and ready for painting Base color ready
  10. I had the same problem with my Revell bounty's plastic hull. Try to get the loose piece somewhere where you can see it. Then drip glue on it. Let it dry Fixed worked for me
  11. The yards and sails First the spritsail. When not in use, it was usually stored in the beakhead. The most common method is this one. Problem one, where do I tie all the ropes without belaying pins. Solution: right or wrong, who knows. But belaying pins in this period is probably definitely wrong How do I attach the yard to the bowsprit Not needed in this setup, but I will provide someting like a "spritsailyard sling" at the yard. Serving the spritsailyard sling And i have blocks Work at the shipyard has restarted 👍
  12. The superstructure is ready Wheels are in place And the tracks
  13. The finnished and numbered model. The contents of the box were not really what the drawing on the box promised 👎 It was a challenge to correct this Thanks for following this build
  14. This is indeed not good I think it is best that the grain of the wood of the deadeyes is in the same direction as the holes you drill in them. Think about it first before you do drastic things 😉
  15. I'll send them to you via pm. You need : a printer paper A4 tape time And then you have a plan scale 1/1
  16. Nice work 👍 Great stories 👍 And learned through google what "OJT" means 😂
  17. Nice start. I sometimes use a small dot of CA glue until the parts stay in the right place. And then very thin liquid glue for the stronger connection.
  18. Very nice planking But it is best to taper the planks towards the bow. Otherwise you could get in trouble later. https://modelshipworld.com/forum/98-planking-downloads-and-tutorials-and-videos/
