  1. Thanks. No, I first draw pencil lines and then start drilling
  2. Nice work. Indeed 👍 (page 5) https://www.modelbouwforum.nl/threads/peters-dwarsdoorsnede-van-de-17de-eeuwse-pinas.288003/page-5
  3. Baker fragments ( from the real Baker ) Pricess channel Spanish (Red bay) Starting with a wale. And then using this wale as a base, planking up and down was the most logical method in my opinion. More about this planking see link in signature
  4. So they're basically big check valves. I used to think they were dummy cannon ports when i was younger.. . Thanks, mistery solved ...
  5. BTW. This Patrick is 32 years younger in the photo than he is now. To my knowledge the only Tiger you can visit for free http://www.december44.com/en/history_battle_of_the_bulgela_gleize.htm Back to Mary, Painting the transom, chapter 4... After adding some small wales. A rough sketch. And the result. This is better I think
  6. Concrete... No problem, an 88mm round from my Tiger II will do the trick. A little humor now and then can't hurt 😇
  7. This option is the most logical. I will send you a pm with a drawing
  8. The starboard side is painted And the threaded rods that make the rear castle narrower at the top are back in their place (I am too wide at the top and otherwise I will have problems with the standing rigging) Now the outer standards, with a lot of fitting and measuring and cutting... dry fit The colours on the transom do not want to work 🤢 After 3 different schemes, which did not work. the "short pain" was chosen. A new start, with a scheme that will look more like the Anthony roll Hopefully the fourth time will look better
  9. A bit late to start following this interesting build with apparently ups and downs. great work Steven
  10. Don't now. There is no time table for this build. Sorry
  11. thanks for the comments and likes. Maybe a bit harshly said 😇, but. Actually, they can leave those bow parts on the bottom of the sea for me. Imagine if it turns out that the entire bow of my model is wrong. Some more information about the fore castle would indeed be nice.
  12. Great 👍 do you also deliver milk in Verrebroek Belgium? if so, 2 bottles of milk tomorrow please 😇
  13. First of all, thanks for following, likes, and the nice comments. Vacation over, so back to work on Mary (some of us). As mentioned before, applying masking tape to clinker planking is not convenient. And as rightly noted, they didn't have masking tape back then either. So everything is drawn and painted freehand. Materials used: Tamiya paint, paint markers and Danish oil. If you are right-handed, it is easiest to always paint the left line. The colors are applied step by step. The cover of the book serves as a guide, but was not followed completely. Port side serves as a test side. So starboard still needs to be done. That's where we are now All "untreated" wooden parts are provided with a layer of Danish oil. No white below the waterline. The original may or may not have been painted white. None of the ships on the Antony roll have a white underside. This is how the tree nails are most visible.
