When mounted they cover moldings on all I have seen please explain why the moldings or planks are not inletted so it does not appear to have open gaps? Please this is no way criticism just curiosity.

John Allen Posted July 14, 2017 Share #70 Posted July 14, 2017 Your is not the only model I have seen this on I want to be educated on the procedure of placing decorations. You have carved some beautiful rings painted gold when placed on your ship they appear to be put atop moldings, my question is should the molding be cut at either end so the medallions lay totally flat against the hull instead of on top of molding or planks. I will be doing some simple carving soon and want to be correct Please I am just curious and this in no way should be taken as criticism davyboy and mtaylor 2 Quote John Allen Current builds HMS Victory-Mamoli On deck USS Tecumseh, CSS Hunley scratch build, Double hull Polynesian canoe (Holakea) scratch build Finished Waka Taua Maori War Canoe, Armed Launch-Panart, Diligence English Revenue Cutter-Marine Model Co.

amateur Posted July 17, 2017 Share #72 Posted July 17, 2017 Hi John, I scanned some pics in the net and in my books, and I thinkg the rings should be placed against the aouter hull, so the wales and profiles are to be inletted in the mouldings. So: in principle no open space behind te mouldings. (but perhaps I'm wrong, as I am by no means an expert on English ships) Jan mtaylor and davyboy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

druxey Posted July 17, 2017 Share #74 Posted July 17, 2017 Any decorative work would have been hollowed to fit over the wales: these strengthening strakes would not be cut into and weakened. However, you are correct that there would not be spaces between these pieces.

shipmodel Posted July 17, 2017 Share #76 Posted July 17, 2017 Hi John - Truly magnificent carvings and interior framing. I am enjoying reading your build log very much. I agree with Druxey and Jan that the carvings should be set back against the hull. Other decorative moldings can be cut around the wreaths, but the wales and other structural members should not be cut. The wreaths should have channels cut into their backs so they set back against the hull. The only other thing that catches my eye are the deck beams of the poop deck. I think they may have too much camber (round up). They look much more arched than I see in Dr. McCardle's book. Hopefully they can be carefully removed and replaced. Otherwise, just wonderful work.
