Planking,planking,planking😀 

I think you will be finished by Christmas.... 🤣

It’s indeed better to use short planks then those long ones!

Wale in Dutch is berghout.

Berg = mountain en hout =timber.

And that's only one deck! Remember, there aren't just three full gun decks, but also the upper decks too.

 

The kit provides 240 strips of 4mm x 1mm x 1000mm tanganyika.

I can plank my whole wall at my hobbyroom with this...😃

I think it is time for you to leave the forum for a little vacation.

Of you go!!!!

Save trip and good weather.

We cancelled our little trip 😢

Sjors
 

You’re first build and then the Aggy.... you are brave 🙃

The start is good so from time to time i’ll bring you a visit.

Keep going this way and it will be great!

Sjors

So far i can see is it an optical illusion.
It is difficult to focus the eyes.

But everything will come together When you are further.

Sjors

Let’s see......my name is Sjors. Translated in English...........George!!

I’m royal ( in my dreams) so......i think i need to build this beauty....

Dilemma....Royal George or Victory....l i think Royal George won 😆
Take your time to develop her.

I’m retired in 2 years and 9 months.....no pressure.

Sjors ( Royal George ) 😊⛵️

Hello Peter,

Or i can call you neighbor. 
You are doing a great job.

And you’re speed looks like a little Max Verstappen.

Question, the paint on the hull is that hand painted or airbrush?

I will follow you close!

Sjors

Hello Henrik,

I was following you from the beginning and you are doing a fine job.

I enjoy every minute when i build her so i’m sure that you will do the same.

Sjors

Hi Trent,

I see that you are taking a deep dive with the Aggy.

When i build her i enjoy every minute of it.

She is now standing in a resthome for older en dement people.

They told me that the ship give peace to those people so i’m happy.

Enjoy the build and i will follow form a distance....
 

Sjors

 Don’t have to wait till monday to see something 👍

When your finished with this beast, i’ll be like this —> 👨🏼‍🦯

Enjoy your vacation (if it is vacation ) en come back in safe health!
 

Sjors

Yes! Is there a seat available at the first row? 
I have my drinks and popcorn ready.

Good luck with this amazing kit.

She has her name.......

And also de decks between de chimneys are done.

A few more things and then an other one is finished.

But that can take a while because of work and vacation 🙂

Sjors

Hello,

Anybody at home?

Sjors

Christian,

I’ll be away for a while and i’m coming back and i see a whole ship!

Great job.....I will try to come more often......

Sjors

Sjors

Sjors

That’s some really nice progress there Sjors. I think Jan may have been referring to the funnels.

 

As for paint scheme, I always reckon it’s “Captain’s Choice” - so whatever colour Anja wants is the right colour!😉

 

Oh - and tell Anja that I’m still using her (and your) little gift from our visit to Victory all those years ago. 😊

Thanks Grant,

The funnels where dry fit.

I have to remove them for making the railing .

I just put them there for the picture....and yes, wrong!

Thanks Jan 😃👍

And Grant,

Anja ask if the mug still drinks as it should be 😄

You have him about 6 years?

Sjors

Hai Jan,

Thanks for the comment.

I  think you mean those round things at the stern?

I had the same feeling but this is what they told me to do on the manuel.

I see the Smit Rotterdam a few times in real in Schiedam but not the bottom 😀

And there i see the Upper decks are blue so i did do the same.

Sjors

I told you that I'm still building but slow.

That will not say that I do nothing.

The next pictures are from the last year.

You'll have about 2yrs from when I start to build this, to it being released, so you'll need to make sure that money is well looked after!

The countdown starts now .......😆

Frames finished?

Sjors

No worries James.

 I have my private bank, called Anja😁

Sjors

Anja is smiling next to me 😀
