diablo0007 Posted April 20, 2015 Author Share #2 Posted April 20, 2015 (edited) it should be better but i used very hard to deal with coper thats was a mistake, but because the Mamoli kit didnt came with copers so i had to get the coper plate from a locale place they were not well cut and arround 0.5 thicknes.. i soak the complet hull lath in water waiting so i can work on uper waterline second plank i hope wont take time as it did with the coper dressing as it tooks me from 12/04/2012 i stoped working many times in that period Edited April 20, 2015 by george007 msberkman 1 Quote Completed Model: La Toulounaise Current Build: HMS Victory, Mamoli kit, 1/90 On the Shelf: Corel HMS Victory Cross section Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shipyard sid Posted April 20, 2015 Share #3 Posted April 20, 2015 Hello George You sure are a patient chap. I would add a thin strip at the waterline and tidy up the tiles so they are flush to the strip . I am sure once you finish your second planking you will be very happy to see your progress. Good luck with your build, and keep posting with photos, if you ever need any information during your build, don't forget it is always here, so you just need to ask . Just enjoy youself George . regards DAVID diablo0007 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Morrison Posted February 11, 2018 Share #8 Posted February 11, 2018 (edited) I like it! Yellow has always been a difficult color with which to paint. I can never get it to cover well. You have done a great job with it! I cannot wait to see more of your model! I also like your copper plating.

spider999 Posted March 26, 2018 Share #10 Posted March 26, 2018 I absolutely love your pics mate, I am doing the same kit, 1:90 scale mamoli I have had a few gaps in the build as we had a second child then moved house 5 years ago, so there have been other things at the top of the "to-do" job list. However, I am almost done with the house so will hopefully soon be back on the build., will bookmark your model for reference , keep it up. diablo0007 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spider with this speed building your model (13 years?) it’s not going to be soon you get to your beloved rope knots and rigging. I'm not in a rush mate, am busy decorating the hall/stairs and landing at the moment, stripping all the paint off the stairs to leave them with a waxed polish light oak finish and a carpet runner down the centre... more bloody wood!! my boat is a lifetime project, hopefully soon to be a retirement project!!

spider999 Posted March 25, 2020 Share #19 Posted March 25, 2020 I hope you are all safe and well and managing to get through any restrictions due to this awful virus. I have done a few little bits on my planking , mainly down to the waterline, I have now decided to do the green plates both sides and then cover them with copper foil tape.. watch this space. diablo0007 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diablo0007 Posted March 27, 2020 Author Share #20 Posted March 27, 2020 Hello spider999 i didn't use the green plate which come with the kit and it was bad idea cause i used a very hard cooper to deal with and it took me lot of time to finish Quote Completed Model: La Toulounaise Current Build: HMS Victory, Mamoli kit, 1/90 On the Shelf: Corel HMS Victory Cross section Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spider999 Posted June 17, 2020 Share #22 Posted June 17, 2020 Hi Diablo, how are you keeping? well, I hope. I have been doing a bit more of my build and have nearly finished the green tiles. I am going to cover them with the copper foil tape that so many of you seem to have used. diablo0007 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob S Posted January 3, 2021 Share #23 Posted January 3, 2021 Merry Christmas to you as well Diablo! Happy New Year! Appreciate your kind words on my build. In truth, my transom is coming together more because of your progress/pictures than of the Mamoli instructions! I am nearing the end of my build as I only intend to go to a 'hull down' type of finish rather than the full up, rigged model. Takes up much less room. Of course, I might change my mind later:) diablo0007 1 Quote Rob active projects: HMS Victory, Mamoli 1/90 scale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diablo0007 Posted January 3, 2021 Author Share #24 Posted January 3, 2021 hello Rob S rigging is something very amusing to work with except the rat line are very difficult and boring especially in HMS victory cause i believe you need to make like 12 rat line but when i made my Toulounaise i enjoyed the rigging and believe me it will give a very nice ship with rigging i think you will change your mind later good luck and i will try to start my build again Rob S 1 Quote Completed Model: La Toulounaise Current Build: HMS Victory, Mamoli kit, 1/90 On the Shelf: Corel HMS Victory Cross section Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
