S.Coleman got a reaction from Henke in HMB Endeavour 1768 by S.Coleman - Artesania Latina - 1:60 scale
Don't worry guys. Im still building. Slowly getting it done. I've gone down the path of the planks termination at the stem. Actualy working out great. Mapping each plank for fitting and the lie of it. Checking and re checking.

Time for another update. Better pic quality this time. Continuing on down the sides with last layer. Coming to the tricky part now. Hope you all like so far.

Nice job all round. This ship is definitely on my to do list. That stern gallery come up real nice. Especially with the airbrushed windows. Good job.

The first few planks laid down. The slightest curve and the top edge wants to kick out. Using drawing pins to clamp planks down so I have no holes.
It’s tedious work but I think I’m winning. What do you think? Look ok?

S.Coleman got a reaction from Keith S in HMB Endeavour 1768 by S.Coleman - Artesania Latina - 1:60 scale
Keith, The more you chime in the better. Dont be sorry. Everything helps. Im sure i have watched something like that but cant remeber if it was tbe Gothenburg or the Endeavour. I have been warned however the the AOTS book references are not as acurate as you think they are. Which is where the planks are shown all terminating at the stem.
Cheers

And the planking continues..... will open up the hatches before its all covered in. Going surprisingly well considering its my first ship in a while since the Friesland.

Not too bad progress. Bulkheads had alot of fudging around to finaly get planks to lay properly. Probaly going to be few and far between with photos as the planking process takes its time.

Removing the frames from the boards was a bit tricky, laser not cut all the way through. After removal a quick sand and now a dry fit. Instructions have the bulkheads numbered but not on the actual pieces so it was a bit of a jigsaw getting the correct order.
I have the AOTS book to help along the way.

Ok first of all hello guys and gals. It's been almost three years since my last log on here. I had built the Friesland by mamoli. The build log is still here.
So I got this kit awhile ago on a buy, swap and sell page. It's an old one but the wood inside is very well preserved. No warping, The rubber bands holding the strips together has long since perished.
Decide to have a crack at it and see where we go from there.
