  1. thanks friends! I started the preparations of the interior: the large bulkhead of the hold of the water and the well of the bilge pumps I also started the body of the bilge pumps
  2. These days I proceeded to finish outside of the model: I have given two coats of sealer and, after finely sanded, two coats of paint opaque transparent finish. All spray with airbrush.
  3. Sorry Mark, I was looking at the third photo. By drawing on the background it seems to me that the strakes at the stern should have a more harmonious bending and not folded so neatly. Perhaps the transom should be tapered a little to avoid the edge so sharp. Or am I wrong?
  4. My method to build the windows: with a card I found the exact shape of the window in which will fit the frame glass. Around this template card I made a counter-frame that I need to assemble the window:
  5. Thank you!! It's nothing compared to your job that I always follow with admiration!!
  6. I started the construction of the gunwale, starting from the bow where must engage in the oarlocks. Everything is only hinted at plenty fat: it will be finished later
  7. Oh! Sorry!!! With this: Synthaglass http://www.drtoffano.com/toffano_prodotti/pg_prodotti.htm
  8. Hello Alex! manually, with some tools shaped from me made from old hacksaw blades
  9. After several attempts came bad, I managed to make a window more acceptable; I do not know if I can, but I want to try to fix the two hinges to be able to open; will be very difficult to fix the hinges to the threshold ......... In the photos the window is stuck
  10. I have finished the nailing of the transom and I banded the inner part of the time of transom
  11. Little progress; I completed the bandage transom: I have yet rifinirne contours which are abundant:
  12. I started working on the transom, probably the less successful because of some asymmetry that I hope, completing the work, it is not too obvious. Meanwhile, I trimmed the excesses of strakes: I built the two stretchers of the transom: And the crowning that supports these stretchers: From this picture I get the impression that the courses tend to rise slightly to the left, although it seems not live; mah!
  13. Exscuse me, Mark.... From the first picture I see that the plank of ebony has not a curvature harmonious but has edges a bit 'too accentuated. This could affect the lines and the beauty of the model! You still have time to correct this error!
