Thank you all. I place the truster housing..... That thing that goes around the propellors 🙂 The propellors are dry fit so when I have placed the rudders ,maybe I can start with the paint job....or not. We will see! Sjors
-
Thanks Piet and OC. Also thanks for the likes. The trusters don’t want to do it the easy way so i’m busy to make them in one line. One of the propellors is touching the case...... Then a question. The propellors,what kind of colour do i give them. Gold? Copper? Black? Maybe Andy (realworkingsailor) knows it? Sjors

After almost 2 weeks of sanding, filling, primer, sanding, filling, primer ,sanding, filling and primer I think I have to quit sanding otherwise there will be no more wood left to sand............. There are a few little imperfections but that's for later when I will put hee real paint on it. I think it's gonna be 3 layers so.... But there are a lot of things to do before I can paint her. Time enough to do. And of course the pictures..... Sjors

Congrats whit the finish. Great job what you have done! ”de stille genieter” 😆👍

Hoi Anna, You can use a sandingmachine called mouse. They have it also by the Gamma. It’s quick and easy... Sjors

The bow section is also done. The blocks are glues and shaped. Now a little stern and primer time. But that will be for next week I think. Picture time. Sjors

Hi John, I don't know if I'm crickey....😶 And it looks if I have done a lot but don't forget that I had 3 big sheets of wood what covers the hull. So there was not a lot of planking to do anymore....just enough ! Maybe strange question but what do you mean by bee's knees? Never hear of it . Maybe you can use the Dutch langue to translate ??? 😛 Sjors
-
Thanks Kevin and Marcus. @Kevin, I do my best to let it look great when she is finished! 🙂 @Marcus! I have to do the same thing at the bow. So another sanding project. Sjors
-
Anja was asking where the pictures are..... I think I gonna be old 😂 So here are the pictures. On the first you see the bulb in shape at one side. The other one has to be done of course. Then the planking and filling. Now it is time for primer.....sanding...filling.....primer etc etc. Sjors

Hello to you all and thank for all the likes. @Jan, I think you are right that it was better to planck the whole hull. I did not and there where some strange shapes now. But with a lot of sanding and filling it should be all right. @Denis, Of course i fair the frames. The hull is closed so sanding and filling will do the trick...... @Jason, Welcome and for you also all the best for 2019 also from Anja. It's totally different for what i have done but maybe it’s good for me. Maybe i can found my mojo back. @John, It looks if it goes fast but there is a lot to do. When i have to paint the hull ,i will try to airbrush it...... That will take some time. And then the rest of course. I think i will be busy for a year or something like that. @ Gren, Your friend build a great hull! I can only wish that mine come close to that. You can take a look at 2 other,Dutch ,forum. Modelbrouwers.nl and modelbouwers.nl By the search functions just type the name. If you have to wait for me it can take a while. Sjors The hull is closed and it is now sanding and filling time.

The first plywood plates are on it. Strange way of working. Because there are 3 layers with glue between it I had problems. I have to soak the wood to bend it and yes.....it let loose. But I had some spare plywood and I had to use that. So a little scratch building also. I know that there are a few caps in it and it needs a lot of filler and sanding but that's oke. First I can go omg with the planking and try to close the hull. Sjors

QUICK-FIND INDEXES to BUILD LOGS FOR KITS
Sjors replied to Dan Vadas's topic in - Index of all kits by brand and subject
Mr Vadas, I ask you an question or request on the 18 of December. Maybe i was not clear enough for you. The question was if you can change the title name of my model in San Ildefonso instead of An Ildefonso. You can find it in quick find - wooden ships. Then can you also put the Smit Rotterdam build by me at the same quick find-wooden ships. Sjors -
😁 it’s coming from a good heart....

@ Piet, Thanks ,and yes,she is big 😁 For you and Gwen also all the good things for 2919 . Also from Anja @Popeye, Animal to plank??? I’m gonna use wood.....😜 It looks easy but it is plywood and because of the shape of the bow it’s difficult to clamp. But i’ll be getting there. And what is flat lacquer? For you and Phyllis also all the best wishes and good health for 2019 from us both. Sjors
