S.Coleman got a reaction from homer in HMB Endeavour 1768 by S.Coleman - Artesania Latina - 1:60 scale
Ships wheel with rigging attached. I'm now thinking about installing knees on the deadeye channels as the kit missed out this detail as well. Let's see how we go.

Another part missed out was this binacle cabinet. So I made my own out of some scrap 2mm ply. Got the design from the actual replica.

Here is a small update. Foremast being constructed. Small bits here and there slowly trudging on.

Made a start on the foremast. At the stage I have to add the side boards and bend the front. So far so good

Well slowly but still going.
Painted fore mast up
Continuing with the main mast construction. Not a big update but little bits I can do every now and then.

Stunning job and great painting job. Looks like fun but I’m not to crash hot with plastics. I see you are from NZ too. I’m originally from Otago. Best of luck with the rest of your build.

Moving on from chain plates I have made a start on the bowsprit
The various cleats and bee are in position.
The jack staff complete with block attached
The ship at a glance of progress.
Happy with the outcome so far.

As mentioned above im not going to place a lot of photos of chainplate assembly but I will post these as evidence I'm still working on the ship haha.
port side chain plates are now encased with strip on the outside and painted.
Starboard side has them installed and need some tweaking to look straight and right.
Hope you all like.

Here i have been working on the tiller, boardwalk and tiller housing. Also managed to rig up the ships wheel rigging.
Unfortunately some research shows a block and tackle arrangement on the tiller bar and I did not find this out until later. I had already ripped out the original rope as it was too thick. I'll just stick to the AL plans on this one.
Scratch built the board walk and tiller housing but still yet to paint it up
Fabricated the cat heads and added them on.
I know there are some inaccurate details but I'm not too fussed as my skills are limited. I'm happy with it so far. Hope you all like.
