very nice....might have to add this one to my to build list...
-
alittle more of the deck planking completed....
-
this takes me back to my Bellona build.......i altered a few things on mine noticeably the gunports which turned out ok in the end.....corel kits are sparse on instructions but this is a great looking ship when completed....
-
second planking well underway now.....nothing fixed in position yet including transom...and some more deck planking done.
-
looking superb...
-
second planking has begun...transom not yet fixed permanently ....and my rudimentary plank former...travel iron and push pins...
-
cheers Hamilton....1st planking not too bad.....i find the first planking always tedious, you have to do it but seems to drag on....not as bad as rats though...
-
first planking nearing completion....just a few little issues need sorting and a few more planks on starboard side need placing....then a good sanding ready for planking 2
-
Rudder, not yet fixed in final position.
-
the transom is not yet fixed, just there to get a feel of its final position. The first planking is slowly getting there.
-
whilst i'm on with the first planking I like to get on with some of the deck furniture between the glue drying.
-
R.I.P. Ma'am...
-
a little of Peregrines transom completed....the 50p coin shows just how small this build is....brings its own set of problems.
-
frames and the first lower decks added....this is a tiny model and will probably pose just as many problems as much bigger kits..
-
the camera can hide a lot of defects but cheers...
-
first planking continues
-
i have started corels Endeavour.....it will be interesting to see the differences between the two kits.
-
the whole transom is assembled off the main hull, attached at a later date supported by 3 walnut beams already assembled on the model one of which can be seen (29) in the window aperture of diagram 15-3
-
yes it is an instruction for the vertical planking....i will post a pic of the instruction......thanks for following....i am a builder that just follows the kit instructions.....I am not overly concerned about the accuracy of the ship i am building, for me it is an enjoyable hobby....
-
a little deck planking done, and the transom (not attached yet)....I like to jump ahead of the plans just to see how things will pan out ...gives me a feel for the ship
