    A lot of work went down last weeks. Painted the hull. Installed the rudder and rear decorations. Steering wheel is in place and a lot more small details on the hull.

    haha ja ich verstehe dich auch so die seilrollen auf dem Deck habe ich mit einem kürzeren fadenstück in Bienenwachs gewachst dann mit etwas Leim versehen die Schnur und per Finger aufgerollt auf einer ebenen Fläche. Das Ende der Takelage aufs Deck geklebt und dann die gefertigte Rolle da drauf. falls du die Wicklungen an den wandten meinst um die Seile herum die habe ich auch gut eingewachst und dann geleimt und mit Pinzette drum herum gerollt dann hebt das ganz gut. Hoffe konnte dir weiterhelfen

    Yeah i am now finally done with the second planking. Was pretty straight forward, just the rear and bow were a bit tricky. Added the kiel parts also Did some work on the inner side of the bulwarks with the decorstion strips and shapes and prepared the canon hole parts and some deckings next up is finishing the hull with decorstion strips and paint it

    Finished the first and biggest one of the four dinghys: not a lot of progress lately
  29. Boerscht
    quality is good but the Models are not perfectly historical correct. Instrucions are clear and material is good. Good beginner models.

    Long time no see, but had a little bit progress on the Beagle the last weeks: Started with the lifeboats besides planking the deck: planked the deck with 6 cm long pieces, not single stripes: added the brass doors and windows: and already started with planking the first layer of the hull:
  32. Boerscht
    Yes works perfect with them

    After finishing my OcCre Polaris I wanted to go more advanced and chose the Beagle for my next model. I really like the look and also the historical background of Charles Darwin. There she is: Kiel is perfectly straight: doing the skelleton applied the deck before planking. I can fix it with some nails this way. cabin walls added, thats it for the start:

    Lately no updates but I just finished my weathered Polaris. Rigging was easy and fast done. little bit too fast, thought it will be more… I broke one mast while sanding it but could fix it with a nail inside and some glue. The sails went into some black tea to get the look right. All in all it was a relly fun, but short and easy build. I could need some reccomendtions for my next model! should be something more challenging. elegant like my Endeavour but more rigging (I like rigging), good quality and can be time consuming. Definetly a sailing vessel. Any recommendation is welcome! pictures of the finished Polaris 1:50 by OcCre:
