  1. Thank you. I want to make a uniq model of this beautiful schooner.
  2. The rudder is in place. The combined companion+skylight is ready but not glued in place on the deck because i have to complete treenailing first.
  3. The companion and skylight in progress.
  4. Thank you OC. Thanks for the link. I will check it out. l didn't know anything about Battle of Trafalgar until I decided to build the model of HMS Pickle. While I was building the model according to an unsufficient plan that I found on the internet I felt the need to do research about this ship and learnt her interesting role in the battle and after battle.
  5. The tiller is ready, by the way the latest view of the model.
  6. I started treenailing. (I am not sure if the toothpicks are in scale). By the way i painted a yellow band in the upper hull.
  7. The capping rails at the bulwarks have been completed.
  8. I cut the gun ports and painted them
  9. I completed the main deck planking and the poop deck planking continues
  10. Dry fit with the rudder and the stern post.
  11. I completed inner planking of the bulwarks and painted them. I wasn't happy with the look of main deck walnut planking so i decided to make second layer with 1x5 mm basswood strips.
  12. Starboard side is almost complete
  13. Beautiful ship and very good work. Congratulations.
  14. I painted hull and started coppering. I am using self-adhesive tape of copper. I made a jig for doing false rivets of copper plates.
