After thinking about at work last night, you could make a template from some stiff paper(card) and get the desired taper by sanding and fitting, much the same way some people do on a solid hull...just a thought

As far as getting the taper, no trick that I know of just checking while sanding by eye. The futtock...treenail or simulated bolts? Comes down to how you want to do it yourself. Either way would look good and with yours being such a big scale the simulated bolts would look really nice, be much easier at this scale, but your choice.

If those frames are still in the rough with no fairing (sanding) yet...you have done an excellent job. From the looks there will be minimal sanding required. Great Job

HMS Triton (cross section) by McSpuds - 1:32
in Cross Section Build Logs for HMS TRITON

1/32 is the same scale as mine. As far a amount of wood needed, I had a friend give me a pile of cherry. I just resawed, planed and sanded as I need. So I don't really have a good list for amounts. Looking forward to more.
