  1. G'day everyone, Have built the Mary Rose once already, from the Jokita kit but without any amendment. However per the Anthony Roll it doesnt look right. Am now researching a second build but with added castles and netting (and anything else that looks accurate to add to the basic kit). Plenty of evidence now that she had extra forecastles and summer castles with detailed drawings to explain the options. Also the Trust finding the stem (the forward keel up to the deck) means that all the curves of the hull can now be accurately mapped based on contemporary ship builder standard relationships of depth of hull to width depending on total length. So I'm looking at the kit plans and the books and sketching how it might be done. A new box on another box approach built separately then fitted looks good (so far), intending to fit off the normally removable kit frames. All the added gun ports/half moon shape and the pavises will be tricky however to produce a standard shape. Plus added guttering for each added deck. Not to familiar with how the site works so excuse any errors. coldgold
