    I still cannot believe this is the same 1:75 model as I am building. the details you are showing are marvelous.
  2. JanV
    finalizing the outside and started with the inside.
  3. JanV
    Slowly continues it will not be perfect, but a good practice for this technic.

    Looks very good. Now first job, get yourself a bigger letterbox for the next shipments
  5. JanV
    Yes I know Claytons build. This is just a try out of this technic on this scale
  6. JanV
    first filled the space between the frames then added the paper with wall paper glue on the frames and started with the planking now patience required for each next part. To be continued

    For this reason we should have a Time machine Checking paintwork from that period in the Netherlands I personally expect something in between. considering that the master of the build was from the Netherlands, but also the influence of the King of Sweden that this ship should be very impressive is to be considered. in that period cost of labour was not a point, no problem to paint such a ship every year.

    looks good that lantern Did that glass of Belgium Bear helps you? I will get them also some of these tomorrow when I am in Belgium

    I first am making an contramall from paper and then planking on the paper. I learned this technic from a Russian builder and used this also for a previous small boat. Later this week once the paper mall is fixed I will publish some pictures. for the paper I am using toiletpaper in combination with wall paper glue (called Papier Mache in the Netherlands)
  10. JanV
    started with the small boat next step will be fixing these frames after that start with planking and hopefully remove these temporary frames and replace them with "original" clamps. Due to private reasons the builds is still very slow although I have now a holiday break

    did you use glue which is water-soluble. if so use a injection neadle and spray some water at the point with the failure. hopefully this part will then release and then you can carefully re-glue this again. good luck

    One week to go before the holidays. I have re-scaled the frames for the small boat and glued this on some wood. I am trying to use this as a guidance for the planking. maybe also some rigging?

    I have just read your build and I am sure this kit will be on my wish list. I watched some time ago already this kit in my Modelshop, but at that time I did not buy this, but reading your build triggered this again. thanks for giving me the last hint to start with this kit also

    Count me in also Sjors

    Are you sure you are building the same scale model from Corel or is this in 1:35 instead of the original 1:75. I see details on your model I cannot dream of, so perfect looking to the same on my Corel in 1:75.

    Thanks, I found a local supplier for this special Silk paper. (10 sheets for 11,00 euro) did you use the graphic as posted or a special picture (I am not so familiar with vectorized pictures) Thanks also for the Lantern, I will check with a local supplier what he can supply.
  17. JanV
    Looks good. Question: is that silk with paper on the market available?
  18. JanV
    I am curious about the result of the flags, even the failures, as my idea is to make those also myself about the lantern do you have more information, like brand and type.
  19. JanV
    I have seen various kits from this company HMSVicory and Souverin of the Seas and thesr are very good kits. Only problem is that it takes approx 2 years before all items are received
  20. JanV
    The last weeks I have finished a ship in a bottle.
  21. JanV
    check the various logs here for both Billing boats and Corel models and see how these are modified. through information from the Vasa Museum we have been informed about this new kit: http://www.editionsatlas.se/collection/VBU/Majestatiska-vasa.html not sure when available in each country, but this will be a subscription modell with every month some new packages. for the design of this modell there has been direct input from the museum, so this is expected to be a more correct version. http://warshipvasa.freeforums.net/thread/146/new-vasa-kit

    Looks great Frank, I followed your build with great interest and got some good idea's to use in my Vasa. goodluck with your wife to have the living changed for this beauty. I expect in some years the same problem
  23. JanV
    Good job Sjors. enjoy your holiday and hope you get better weather as we are having now in our cold Netherlands (wet snow and of April, terrible weather )
  24. JanV
    in the meantime busy with preparations of the yards, as soon as something new to show I will post some pictures I have packed the Vasa in plastic to prevent against dust. due to private reasons I cannot work on the rigging and have to wait till summer holiday period.

    Hi Ulises, I just noticed your build again and had to read several topics. Again a marvelous job you are doing here. I will keep following you from now again.
