Bounty's Jolly boat by Sakcha - FINISHED - Artesania Latina - First build - SMALL

[sakcha]

Hi,

I'll try to re-do my build log of the Bounty Jolly boat that I did before the great wipe out

 

First part is the description of the kit.

Booklet instructions and all the part needed to build the model.

The instructions sayed to put the floor before planking the hull, but I didn't follow them. I'd rather keep a good access to the hull, so I finished to planking the hull before doing the floor.

No real difficulties here, instructions are pretty clear.

 

I had to sand and use a good amount of coating to get a nice surface before painting.

At the beginning I planned to paint the boat with a grey "washed wood" aspect, but after some try I was not satisfied so I change my mind and move to a "classical" paint.

No difficulties with the rigging and the mast. Once again Artesania Latina made a good work on the instruction booklet.

Here is some change I made.

There was no pin rack to bock halyards and sheets, some I made some.

I also change the position where the stay is fixed on the mast. It seems sails were too long to fit in the triangle. I fixed it 3 centimetre higher.

And here is the model, almost finished.
I'm still tuning it when I have some ideas.

Nice to see you back - and I like your additions that you made. What's next?

Hi Sarah,

I was not away, just in a need of motivation of "rebuild" this log

Thanks for your kind words.

Next model is "Le Renrad", but you already found that.

I'm still following your other build, congrats, you have magic fingers

 

Cheers

Great photos of a nice build. Thanks for sharing. As a noobie I am about to start building the Bounty's Jolly Boat that comes as part of AL's large/fullblown 1:48 kit. I hope to do as well as you have. I wonder if the detail is as full when it is just included as a tender atop the deck of the ship? We shall see.
