Louie da fly Posted July 5, 2020 Author Share #1265 Posted July 5, 2020 A step forward. To start with, there were several times in finalising and positioning an oarsman where I had to sit on my hands while I waited for glue to dry between one step and the next, but now I've worked out a way to increase the number I'm working on at any one time, so while I'm waiting for the glue to dry on one, I'm working on another. Unfortunately, there is a limit to how many things I can do at once. For example, although I could glue all the upper oars onto the gunwale at the same time, I don't want to because I could easily undo the work with a careless hand movement. However, once the oarsman is permanently in place the oar is also fixed more permanently -it's glued both to the gunwale and to the hands of the oarsman, who himself is glued to the seat and his feet are glued to the deck. However, as I have now completed several figures I've become able to work on a new figure at each end of the row that's already done. So Figure A has just been completed - he's had his final shaping and sanding, and has been painted and glued in place. Figure B is the first on the starboard side. He's got his arms shaped and glued on, and he's ready to be removed from his seat, and filler put in the gaps between arms and body ready to finish the shaping. Figure C has just had his arms temporarily glued on, ready to be pinned to the body so I can do the hands and roughly shape his arms. This usually takes several tries - I work out where and what shape I think the hands should be in relation to the oar handle, unpin the arm, carve it to the shape I've decided on, then pin the arm back in place. Check to see what still needs to be done, take it off, shape it some more, put it back on again etc till I'm happy with it. Once I've got the arms and hands the way I want them, I glue them permanently in place, as in figure B. Finally, as the figure at A is now complete, that leaves me able to glue the next oar to the gunwale (D). As you can see in the first photo the oarblade is being supported (by a little plastic tub) at the same height as the others till the glue dries. In the second photo I've got a bit ahead of myself - I've placed the next oarsman on the bench, but in fact I don't do this till the glue dries on the oar, as it's fatally easy to dislodge the oar by careless hand movements (don't ask me how I know). Once the starboard figure (B) is permanently in place I'll be able to have four oarsmen in progress at the same time - one at each extreme end of the row on the port side, and the same for the starboard side. I have to keep up the supply of arms, so in between times I'll be cutting out new ones and carving them roughly to shape. Not quite mass-production, but a faster procedure than before. davyboy, Ekis, BLACK VIKING and 9 others 12 Quote It's not really a ship model unless you've bled on it.

That way lies madness! I've got 48 oarsmen to do, you'd have 58! (I just checked on your build log). And anyhow, if your sail is up, you don't have to have anybody rowing. Add to that, you can buy Viking figures, though there are some pretty bad ones out there. Having been a Viking period re-enactor for over 20 years I know. No, they didn't wear ugg boots, helmets with horns, they didn't look like the guys on the tv series Vikings, they wouldn't have worn armour while sailing (it's heavy, plus what happens if you fall overboard) . . . more like this- not a bad selection (the last one is very high status, and I have to say, super-cool): [Edit]: NOT LIKE THESE! [/Edit] OTOH, if you just want to carve a few crew members, maybe that wouldn't send you bananas. Always nice to have another person on MSW carving figures.

Louie da fly Posted July 7, 2020 Author Share #1269 Posted July 7, 2020 Thanks, Binho. And thanks everybody for the likes. Moving ahead a bit faster now. Here are the latest additions: Figures B and C are painted and glued in place. Figure D now has his arms glued on and filler added, ready for trimming to final shape. And I've added oars for two new starboard oarsmen, who are temporarily glued to their benches awaiting arms. Later in the same day: Figure D is now painted and glued in place. The new starboard oarsmen (E and F) have their arms temporarily glued on, awaiting bamboo pivot pins to locate them on the bodies so they can then be carved to shape. You can't see it on the photos, but I've also put in some short brass pins alongside the tholes of the oars I'll be adding next. So that's 8 oarsmen completely done, another two in progress, and two more just about to be started.

Louie da fly Posted July 11, 2020 Author Share #1281 Posted July 11, 2020 More work on the oarsmen. Two new guys added (figures I and J), and figures G and H have had their hands carved to shape to fit the oar handles and arms glued in place. Here's the process I use to get the hand to fit the handle (Figure I - left hand - the right is already done). Rough cut: the hand is just a squarish block of wood - at this stage I work out where I have to carve the hollow the oar handle will fit into. Note the arm is pivoted on a friction-fitted bamboo pin at the shoulder, which allows me to remove the arm to work on it and also to swivel it down into its final place when I've finished shaping it. Next, after taking the arm off, carving the hollow and replacing the arm. Then doing it again to get it closer still to the the shape I need: A bit of shaping of the hand itself: More shaping of both hand and arm, and cutting a demarkation line at the cuff between sleeve and hand And adding grooves to show the fingers. Not a perfect work of art I'm afraid, but they do the job well enough (and I'm making a ship model - the figures are just for atmosphere). And here are Figures G and H with their arms swivelled into place and glued in position. I've put wood filler in the gaps between arm and body. Note the enormous shoulders (and upper arms) which are then trimmed to shape once the glue and filler have dried properly. And here they are sanded and ready for painting.

I've taken that into account to some degree, but it's been a bit of a judgment call - somewhere between He-Man and a 96 pound weakling.
