giku22 Posted April 8, 2013 #1 Posted April 8, 2013 Hi I’ve never built a plank on frame model before so I’m looking forward to giving it a try with this Triton Cross Section. I currently build battleship Bismarck 1:200 (kit Amati) and St. John the Baptist galleon 1:50 (kit DeAgostini). I downloaded the Triton keel parts plan and made the keel and false keel. aykutansin and harvey1847 2

harvey1847 Posted April 22, 2013 #12 Posted April 22, 2013 (edited) Welcome aboard Giku! Have you thought about using a darker wood for the false keel? Are you going to simulate the caulking between the pieces? Best wishes and Happy Birthday!! Daniel. Edited April 22, 2013 by harvey1847 giku22 1 In the shipyard: HMS Triton 1773. POF. 1:48.
