Le Redoutable 1/48: First assembly. Quick and dirty to test the results from the last 6 months.

We will see. If its not fits, my own plan is a ..... 😁 But agree completly, @druxey . But the bow or the stern, in a practical build, is alway more stable then the rest. The area to the last frame is here the point, for example. To get the right connection to the hull. There are material on the timber for the final shape.

Thank you all for the nice comments ! @dvm27 Hi Greg, yes, a little fail. I have measured incorrectly on the CAD an this was the result. But it is part of the game. No pain, no gain.... It was a good reminder to keep the eyes always open !

Uff. A lot of questions. First, thank you all for the nice comments and all the likes on this thread. @Justin P. The fixogum is easy to remove. The gluestick not. I apply it with an little woodstick from a ice cream. Its good to collect them, useful tool ! I you use normal glue the paper will be wavy, with fixogum not. As well the normal glue can penetrate the wood and make a lot of problems with the coating, painting ect. Fixogum works very well. The pencillines are the drillholes from the bolts. You can see it on the picture. I used it for the positioning of the upper head of the bolts. On my MF 70 i use a additional ringlamp. I bought it on ebay. The wood i bought here from a local dealer in germany @Seahawk1313 "a captured French Third Rate, as taken off at Portsmouth Dockyard prior to being fitted as 74-gun Third Rate, two-decker. Later alterations sent to Portsmouth on 24 August.. " The Tigre was drawn quickly after she was captured. The details combines as well with the french ships from the epoch. I have varified the plan with three specialist and the opinion was clear that this plan is a perfect base to work on a Temeraire-class from Brest from the early 90´s. The british changings are added with green lines as well in the plan and are described.
