rafine Posted May 12, 2018 Author Share #121 Posted May 12, 2018 Thanks so much Martin and the "likes".Martin, I'm feeling somewhat better, but it's still affecting my modeling. A couple of things accomplished. First, I added the wales. These were done with 1/16"x 1/8" boxwood strips. Although the instructions call for single strips of 1/16"x 1/4" on each side, I went to two strips to make bending and fitting easier. Scale length pieces were used for the same reason. The upper edge of the top strip was painted black before mounting to ease masking and painting. After the wales were mounted and painted, I then painted the area between the wales and the waterline black, as well.I got a little sloppy at the waterline, but that should be no problem ,since the copper will sharply define that line. Modelmaster acrylic engine black was used for all of the painting.

David Lester Posted May 12, 2018 Share #123 Posted May 12, 2018 Looks Nice, Bob. Painting the upper edge of the wales first is a good idea. I always find cutting in or masking at a change of plane to be very difficult. What I have done in the past is place the masking tape about 1/32" above the point where the two surfaces meet, which works pretty well, but next time I think I'll try your approach and paint the edge of the wales first.

rafine Posted May 17, 2018 Author Share #130 Posted May 17, 2018 I have now made up and installed the cap rail.The bow pieces were cut from boxwood sheet, using card templates, as was the piece over the transom.The remainder was done with boxwood strip, wet heat bent to shape.The entire rail was painted black, using Modelmaster acrylic engine black, with multiple coats , lightly sanded in between coats. I also took the opportunity, before deck furniture creates obstructions, to drill the holes for and add the eyebolts for the gun tackle rigging. I also drilled the holes for the gun breeching line ringbolts, but these won't be added until the guns are mounted.

rafine Posted May 22, 2018 Author Share #135 Posted May 22, 2018 I've now coppered the lower hull. As I've said in recent updates, I'm not very confident about my current ability to do precision work. As a result, I opted to simplify the coppering process . I used the self adhesive copper tape and applied it in full length strips, rather than cutting it into individual plates. I scribed the plate lines in after the strips were applied. I also chose not to attempt to simulate nailing of the plates. I think the overall impression at this scale is OK, but definitely not as good as it would be if done more correctly. I've also chosen not to treat the copper. After looking at my Essex, which was done a few years ago, and left untreated, I like the way that the copper has aged naturally and will be happy if this model does the same.

The pintles and gudgeons are shown by strips copper tape with nail holes punched in. All of the other items are made from boxwood strip, cut, filed and drilled as appropriate to the various parts. All of the items were glued and pinned to the hull.
