Mike 41 Posted August 10, 2017 Author Share #62 Posted August 10, 2017 The bow was looking awful plain so I added the bowsprit and gammoning, false rail, naval hood, wash cant, lower and main rails, and bumpkins. This is a few photos of the installation.

frankwil Posted November 14, 2018 Share #63 Posted November 14, 2018 This is incredible work. I'm currently building the kit version of this ship and am completely blown away by this one. You're an artist.

Mike 41 Posted November 14, 2018 Author Share #65 Posted November 14, 2018 Hi Frank, Thanks, I scanned then traced the drawings I needed to generate the modeling plans from the book Anatomy of the ship HMS Beagle using AutoCAD. I would recommend the book it has a lot of fine details you can add to your model.

Pat Lynch Posted June 24, 2019 Share #68 Posted June 24, 2019 Hi Mike - thanks for being daring enough to scratch-build the Beagle I had bought the AOTS and am slowly coming to terms with the nautical detail! A small thing I don't quite understand is the function of the hammock storage along the sides of the main deck. Were the crew's hammocks stored there for airing? (surely they would have got wet). Did the crew sleep on the upper deck? I am a bit unsure! Again, thanks for your build so far - it has given me some insight about an ambitious scratch build wa.......y down the track. Cheers, Pat Quote Building: Artesania Latina Endeavour Billings Roar Edge Seriously thinking: Fairmile B launch (powered) Bucket List: Dyfken, Beagle, Endurance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike 41 Posted June 24, 2019 Author Share #69 Posted June 24, 2019 Hi Pat, Thanks, the ATOS books are a great resource but not perfect use with caution. As I understand storing the hammocks in the crane racks afforded the gunners protection against small arms fire. The hammock would stop musket balls during battles. I would think the crew would sleep on the upper deck during good weather, I know I would. Scratch building a pof ship model gives you a better understanding of the components of the actual ship. I would suggest a cross section for your first scratch build, they give you an idea of the time an effort it takes to make all your own pieces. Good luck with the HMS Endeavour.

alberto58 Posted May 12, 2022 Share #71 Posted May 12, 2022 Hi. looking for HMS Beagle plans, I found your beatiful work I like very much. You think it's possible to have your cad drawings of HMS Beagle?? I'm not able to obtain them from anatomy of the Ship... Thanks a lot! alberto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
