HMS Alert 1777 by Jaekon Lee - 1/64
Mirabell61 replied to Jaekon Lee's topic in - Build logs for subjects built 1751 - 1800
A delight to see this Lee, Nils -
Vic, yes. the lower wale in dull black is a contrast in well harmony with the natural wood. BTW. For gallerie, tafferal, bow, and those places whwere you have chosen the black background for your decoration it looks elegant and just right, I like it very much Nils
-
Johann, hooks and appropriate block tackles are super, well done Nils
-

Build log part 86 taking plans for positioning the ships boat, here dry fit trials. There will be two spare topmast spars horizontal over the fore-ballustrade and the main gallows, on which the boat shall rest. The main stay-sail between the two masts is arranged and rigged in hight to enable free flying to either side without fouling the boat, and the hight between deck and the horizontal spare masts allows sufficient full hight crew`s move on the gun deck Nils the boat will be placed with a little assymetric offset to the port side I think the spare topmasts here are only interim dummies.... the lowest stay-sail can swing free well above the boat the boats bow in the background peeping through belfry stool and the vertical lines Hight for crew on gundeck is sufficient, even with hats on.....

nice work on stanchions and rails Dimitris, Nils

Carl, thanks for your nice comment, with this model it was the first time I tried out the metal plating (rivet structure), like I do now on all historic models that resemble the steel built plated hull before the welding technique took over .... Nils

Thanks Martin, The shroud cleats are made quite simple, like I had shown earlier in this log. I thought about something in wood, but that would have been too prominent in this scale Nils
-
beautiful Fitting out Stuart, its a great looking model Nils
-
a fine planking Job Jbwok, your HMS Warrior is quite a large ship, and it Looks very good so far.... Nils

Update status 23rd April 2015 Build log part 85 the port side running rigging is nearly complete. except for braces, bow lines, sheets and tacks of the lower large square- sails and likewise for the two spritboom sails. Also all the coil ends to the lines have to be put on the pins as well....... Nils the two bowsprit sails also have cluelines, buntlines, and the yards bear lifts and braces. The blue rubberband is just preliminary, to position the yard the operating lines go to the port side bow pinrail at the bulwark, Stb side will be likewise lines and blocks for topsail and topgallant sail most of the lines going down to deck are lead through blocks to their belaying points. There are 28 shroud cleats mounted per ship side

Amazing work Michael, I can hardly wait to see that engine igniting and running with ist own fuel and operating valves (presume its not just a static object) Well done ! Nils

Hey Nenad, you are flattering me, but I`m glad the shipmodel finds your interest. Thanks a lot for dropping in and catching up and your appreciation, all the best for a further good Progress with your CS. I like the pig stays you built recently, I made some for my "Pamir" model as well Nils
