It is going to be a challenge because i have some future upgrades to make on the ship. The Occre brand tells me to glue the cannons that come in the box, directly on the wood. I really don’t like to see that on a model. I think it’s possible, creating some supports inside, painting black to give that darkness.. I think I’ve seen a post here on the forum but can’t find one talking about that. Replacing the metal doors for wood ones, placing some rope on the gun ports, rope for the small cannons on the upper deck, (just four). Many things on the list 🥳 Thanks for the comments everyone 🙏🏻🙏🏻 -
Thank you so much, i have now a better perception about this. It makes sense when it comes to the stability and center of gravity. Maybe tonight I’ll start de construction 😋

Good evening everyone, this is going to be my second build. The package arrived today. While i was waiting for the model i did a basic research about the Golden Hind and some plans showed up. What do you think about this deck? Having cannons on the upper deck.. like HMS Revenge.. In my opinion, I really like the ideia of having cannons on the upper deck. That’s why I’m requesting your opinion on this subject. 🙏🏻 1st image - box 2nd image - deck (picture taken from internet)

Thanks! 😄 I wanted to edit the title with the word ‘Finished’ but don’t know how to do it. Can you help me? 🙏🏻

Thanks! 😄 I was thinking about the Golden Hind from Occre. It has a good price for my wallet.

Good afternoon everyone, my model Polaris is now finished. Now i can have an excuse to get another one 😜 It was my distraction during 8 months. Step by step every day 👌🏻🥳

Good evening, the ship is almost finished. 😄 The diluted pva glue was amazing on the rigging.
-
The model is really nice. Looking good.
-
More rigging, it was challenging at first. I made the first one so I can do the rest with an example already made.
-
I must try to use some diluted Pva glue for the rigging. I’ll try to leave the rope smooth..

After some weeks, finally finished half of the story. Now coming next, the masts and rigging.

Well, time to post my recent work. I really don’t like the metal water pump, even knowing i need to paint the little thing with brown color.. I will do it myself with wood.. something more natural will look good 👍🏻

First knot ever made A simple one to start, took me more than 20 minutes to figure out that more knots would be needed before “closing” with the metallic peace. Anyway, very happy and proud. the second one was way easier 😅
