The model is now of extreme fragility and therefore I thought of starting the coating of the dead work:

Continuing to add canopy sections. On the full size ship the sections were kept separate so as to minimise stress in the lightly built canopy as the ship flexed in a seaway. On the model I have left the outer rail continous so that alighment is maintained.

Thank you Kris, new forum organization is great, I also found great threads I missed earlier .
Thanky you Louie, I am trying my best. I have read about Oseberg ship that its hull shape was adjusted and changed by archeologist at least once, so now, that I know none of Gokstad plan si probably 100% right I can get away with what I have . I am still tweaking it a little when adding another parts of the ship.
It is possible. It is one of the the reasons I am modeling it. To get the shape of the ribs and planks and other parts.

This model is always on my list. Your progress is looking really promising.
Is it possible from the 3D model to get the right shape for the planks?

I am using Roskilde museum replicas as color reference. All their ships have this dark colour, but they use modern chemical - Hempel's Classic, which has copper as the active preservative substance. So I do not know how much authenic is this colour.
Another replica, Islendingur, is painted dark only under the water level. It is mentioned in Erik the Red saga that they used seal tar for bottom of the ship, but it is not known what seal tar consisted of. So maybe this is more like it, who knows:

Hello friends, I did test paint. It should represent tar and linsen oil. What do you think, does il looks right?

I have some progress with planking. It takes me longer then I expected, because I had to compare four sets of source data - Nicolaysen plans, Dammann book plans, Oslo museum plans they had there in year 1999 and photographs of reconstructed ship displayed at museum. Quite a diferences amongst this data sets I must say. Even in basic numbers like length, width and height of the ship. I used combination of dimensions that seems right to me, so I can not say I am 100% right.
If some of you know whitch plan is the closest to the reality, please let me know. It would help me a lot in my endeavour to have it right.
First four planks. I will be further tweaking the planks when all 16 is in place. Dots marks the end of each plank.

Planking done. Here is comparison with the original. I think I am pretty close.

Progress continues. Hull planking and (most) frame extensions complete.
