Rob deck is fantastic ! -
Thank you Rich Thats exactly what i needed. youre safe bet. I think its too low now will have to redo.
-
Rich, thats right with her size. but to me she looks small or perfect after 1:24 cutty. Today I constructed port opening on port side, tried to locate it from Michaels book. I outdoneyself today So now both sides are faired and planks are on the way.cant wait...
-
Thanks Johnny for comment. Yeah this method worked fo me previously so i stick with it. i do it exactly as you wrote I lay it across so it gives grace curve and search for hole between bulkhead it the is one. all throughout the hull. V.

Fairing fairing... I returned to Hulk again. Its never ok with boats to say ship shape.. But finally i finished starboard side to pointa i Can say good enough by eye and by photos. Portside to be completed gopefully next week and Bull Will be definitely ready for planking. ! I work different say fromRobs, i domy want to put woodfiller or cemented layers to event bumps so i need to make sure Hull IS sa much good as possible beforehand. After planking with 1.5 mm thick planks i plan put another thin coat dyed with liberon ebony dye to ensure black on wanlut strips. Will try first. Photos from checking smoothness of Hull...thank you for watching...

Thanks tou Rich , im aloe to read my own thread oh, i did exactly what tou wrote.
-
very nice indeed George.
-
Thanks Rob i should really start planking though still waiting for planks. i believe such subtle detail is probabl even better obtainable bu sanding off finished planked hull if planks are thick enough to allow it. well...
-
Oh looking at last Rich post i do IT worngly. Its Vice versa. So redoing IT.
-
Rob, we know Ruch and his determination. I surrendered many times before ( poking fun here) so we Can tell ourselves that we are not buidling POF models with futtocks :). :))) byt for the sake of discussion i put another layerof complexity to stern in hope that line Will be perfectply visible by sharp bent of planks.you can see in photos how. Lets hope It will work.

Yes Rob I also believe its celarly post timber angle but i would say it is more complicated than that. Even Crothers bible ! is not showing one stern with full convex stern frames of latest era only very convex ones like on this picture. Thus i believe that bump is very delicate and almost impossible to spot certainly not visible from very far. as it Almost almost drive beautiful curvy line. but it is there therefore it is not easy to make it perfect on model even for bigger scales. ill try to photograph it today on my stern. V.

Friends I follow this one with interest i fully agree with Rob, it would have been impossible on his scale from planking thickness eprspective etc.. Im fully aware of that sharpish curvature and hopefully it will be pronounced on mine stern i will try to photograph it. thx Rich for keeping esharp eye. V.

beautiful stern ! you can be as proud as possibe Rob. classy work in every aspect. clapping hands.
-
my gosh its her !

Rich allow me to refrain from racing narrative. it was meant like humor, im not a man of competing in this hobby at all. besides, i cant compete with Robs building ability not speaking of american composite masts sails etc so its pointless topic. yes i was surprised to see email after 1+ year , but unfortunately i dont have ship nor track record of it atm, but hopefully person i sold model to... this is vaguely offtopic but here it go.... even If i had the ship and i would certainly donated it to museum i assume it would cost me a fortune even to deliver it to them ( due to shipping over size etc) ando there would have to be mutual agreement on shipment and tremendoul liking from their side to have it nevertheless, its a fair bit of satisfaction for model builder to get such email for sure i never dreamed of when building it. sepaking of- its far from standard or perfection with planking etc...but sum up seemes that cathegorical rigorous fashion of building and laying all planks as shipwrights do is not necesarrily needed to get reaponse from museum ... lesson learnt. i remember i just put all my love to that vessel fro 1 year of my life . and photos are to stay forever here at msw so i will try to point her to person owing ship now. and now pls lets back to Glory.
-
Rob! youre quick. main rail is beautifuly crafted. we are just staring at what youve acxomplished now i woudl sell this one damn glorious Glory of the Seas with all her cargo fat belly glory and gracious clipper entrance / end. As i see correctly only monkey rail is to be fitted and you have her.

Wishing you steady recovery progress indeed Rich, i hope you can get some amusement from our friendly racing with Rob :)). Just so you know, it echoed again in my head when fairing a bulkheads that I have to be more precise as Rich wouldnt like to see some bumps etc...you see how effect those hours in front of computer had thru spring ;)....
-
Hm, frankly im not overenthusiastic.Looks like little moofted Michaels profile, with all whats been already said...extreme stern rise with all consequences for stern shape etc..
-
You are still detailist and perfectionist Rob :)). Fantastic moldings lines around.
-
Lovely work Frank.
-
