    tarbrush reacted to CharlieZardoz in 19th Century 31-ton Revenue Cutter by CharlieZardoz - Scale 1/64 - building as USRC Active based off Doughty plans and BlueJacket Shipcrafters kit   
    Good morning! Decided to do a mini-update today I added all the treenails to the finished side of the hull. Basically I the process was poking them out with an awl then filling the hole with colored putty (which I darkened with paint) then used the colored pencil to define the area a bit more and here is how it looks!  I know some of my steelers are a bit off location but that will be colored with copper anyways. I realize now that the nails are effectively showing where the ships frames are (an obvious concept but I now I see the logic behind it). Next step now will be doing the other side hopefully won't take me nearly as long

    Hi all! Sorry its been so long been toiling away on planking and just finished the left side. Since the shape is so wedge shaped on this boat alot of planks needed to be spiled. That said it taught me alot and I think I did a reasonably good job for a first timer. Now starting the treenails using an awl, colored putty to fill the holes then a color pencil to add some detailing. Got more to go but thought I'd share

    Thank you mark,    sure is a challenge  - first thing I need to do is to  create accurate 1/100 scale keel section/s  and the  associated frames  that I will need to first find some accurate scale frame section plans, then make paper templates that I can use to change and upscale the peregrine frames,   then I will need to locate the correct positioning of the frame slots in the keel section/s  and  cut then out.
    Lots of drawing work before I can even start building.

    Beveling process...
    Bevel all the edges around the frames with 120/180 grit sanding block in appropriate shape and dimension. Stringers will be guide for the direction and shape of the application and lasermarks around the frames will be guide for the dosage of the application. When the lasermark disappears, it means dosage of the application is OK for that section.
