CRI-CRI Posted May 17, 2018 Author #8 Posted May 17, 2018 Hi, The "Checkerboard" floor in Great Cabin is noticed as optional (page 78 into instruction manual) : what's about historic reality of that ? Was it really present as a wooden floor, or only as less expensive painted overground coat ? How could be installed the last cannon at war ? Thanks Regards Christian Quote
CRI-CRI Posted May 17, 2018 Author #9 Posted May 17, 2018 Hi, Preparing some deck accessories : Regards, Christian coxswain, Jim Rogers, mtdoramike and 3 others 6 Quote
Morgan Posted May 17, 2018 #10 Posted May 17, 2018 Hi Christian, Looking good. The chequered floor was usually a painted canvas, however the ‘Great Cabin’ was often decorated according to the Captains own taste. Gary Bob Cleek 1 Quote

Tigerdvr Posted May 18, 2018 #12 Posted May 18, 2018 Greetings CRI, have been admiring your work on the Confederacy. I'm just a few steps ahead of you on mine. It may be camera angle or my old eyes but it appears that your sheer line sweeps up to the top of the stern frames. You may want to check that alignment against the plans to see if further construction of the stern and galleries will line up. Regards, Harley Quote Cheers, Harley<p Under Construction: USS Yorktown CV-5 1/200 by Trumpeter Completed: USS Curtis Wilbur DDG-54 1/200 by ILoveKit USS Atlanta CL-51 1/350 by Very Fire Liberty Ship John W.

CRI-CRI Posted May 29, 2018 Author #18 Posted May 29, 2018 Salut, J'ai terminé les corrections de hauteur des pavois, préceintes et sabords de la batterie haute de l'arrière, et je lui trouve ainsi un aspect plus élancé malgré la faible diminution de hauteur J'en ai profité pour affiner au reste le haut des allonges, opération difficile avant le démontage Conjointement, continuation du lattage de la batterie principale, où j'arrive symétriquement au contact des bordures (quelle chance !) Amitiés, Christian -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, Corrections height of bulwarks, gunports and upper wales back side of Confederacy finished, it gives her a best look At the same time, planking first gun desk has progressed, symetricaly with each merge (I'am a lucky fellow... !)

CRI-CRI Posted June 8, 2018 Author #26 Posted June 8, 2018 Hi, What do you think about this floor project fot great cabin ? No circular saw, my project can be realised with cutter, even with laser print photo paper, like an ancient painted canvas The checkerred template of the kit don't agree to me : it makes some low cost kitchen effect at my taste... Others ideas ? Regards Christian Jim Rogers, etubino, Sea Hoss and 2 others 5 Quote

CRI-CRI Posted June 8, 2018 Author #28 Posted June 8, 2018 Hi, Final choice is between three versions (look at the joined pics) I have actually any preference... 3rd version is seems "english fashion" else the two others, but probably less visible under numerous desk accessories Regards, Christian JpR62 and alde 2 Quote
Archie Posted June 8, 2018 #29 Posted June 8, 2018 Hello Christian. I very much enjoy following your build. You do excellent work! My choice would be the second photo in the post above. It is an interesting design, and the more muted colors seem to work well. Regards, Archie Quote
CRI-CRI Posted June 9, 2018 Author #30 Posted June 9, 2018 Hi, My latest : a ground floor all like desk, except length of pieces Such a great cabin floor would be the less expensive project, and most easy of all... Regards lmagna 1 Quote
