  1. I now have 5 planks on each side of the mast. And there comes central 1 in the middle, this plank will then be slightly wider than the other planks. My knowledge of the English language is not that good (Never learned it at school). So, Mr. Google says chart = grafiek = Since I am active on this forum my English knowledge has improved. But it looks if there are different ways to speak and write English. English english American English Australian English Is this correct ?
  2. Small update, The captain's cabin is furnished. More detail can be added but that is not really going to remain visible. The poop deck planking has started. First a test, the planks are made a bit tapered. Planking in progress. Thanks for following
  3. Small update, Some PE parts have been used (leftovers of military modeling) Looking around this forum for different Bounty logs. It seems like there are different models. Every manufacturer of ship models has its own version. I go for this solution. Thanks for following
  4. There are different types of masking tape. For every surface there is a tape with a different adhesive strength. The blue tape of the 3M company (my employer) gave me the best results for this purpose. With only some small errors here and there that needs to be repainted afterwards (Scraping off with a knife and thereafter repainting) And, great work GL.
  5. Great model. Welcome to MSW
  6. Welcome to MSW from Belgium
  7. Nice models. Greetings, and welcome to MSW
  8. Welcome to MSM and greetings from Belgium.
  9. Welcome to MSW, and good luck with your model.
  10. Installed a new railing and all the cannon supports are in place And also added some extra detail to the beakhead. Thanks for following
  11. A month later. A small update, Further accessories are installed in the captain's cabin. Crates and small barrels (probably with the personal wine and beer supply of the captain ) A wall rack for nautical charts etc , a mattress, pillows and bags are in progress I also tried to build 16th century buckets. My biggest problem was the thickness of the side from the bucket. A bucket from Mary Rose served as an example After several failed attempts, I made something that comes close to the original The start was an empty .22 LR casing (of course legally obtained according to Belgian law) These are too long, so first i saw tmem to size. A .22 short was better, but I don't have a license for that type of ammunition. The side of the bucket is made of plastic sheet This is glued around the casing with CA glue and a strap of plastic sprue is glued around the bucket Painting and weathering (and a SU76i that is almost finished) Apply a rope, and a batch of 9 is ready. Bucket N° 10 ended up as a scrap (The rope appears thicker on the photo than in reality) Thanks for following
  12. This builder is very talented in soldering and working with copper. You may find answers in his logs. BTW as always, nice work Michael
  13. Welcome back to this fun build of a little Bounty. I started reapplying the removed parts. The belaying pins( primitive, but better than the original) and new steering wheel is under construction. A piece of cargo bed from a 1/72 truck is perfect for the hatches on the deck. Removing the supports from cannons and rebuilding them. Thanks for following
