Bounty by Schrader - Artesania Latina

[Schrader]

Here we go.....

 

I started one year ago.  It is just my third kit, after Tramontana from AL and SJ Nepomuceno also from AL.

 

I'll share all my pictures, where some of my "tricks".  I'll be more than glad to answer your questions as well your advices.

On the decks, I used some ochre Vallejo acrylic  with graphite.

NOTE:  I covered the frames file, since these are going to be visible in the future

I like what you’ve done with the decking Hellmuht...nice weathering effect. Looking forward to seeing more pics 😁

[Trig]

I too like the weathering,looks good. Just started this build myself a few days ago, so ill be following along.

 

Are you gluing straight onto the laser char?

[Schrader]

After working in the first and second decks I started to think about improving the interior fittings 

 

crew cabins and some lights

I made this transom in autocad (including windows), then it was laser cut.

Note that every brass was blued

Looking great so far !

Is the top deck weathered the same way as the lower decks? Looks alot darker, but maybe its just the picture. Looks great though.

 

Whats the name of the tool that says "patent pending" that you are using for bending the wire?

 

[Schrader]

Its name is 1-Step Looper

Not really.  It is just picture and different light in the picture

[Schrader]

The grating was laser cut as well

And.... masts and shrouds

I love the Pocher Rolls-Royce (1/8) and the nice collection of Monogram Classic cars (1/24) that you have. Quite a collection.

Beautiful build. 

[Schrader]

Here we go again

 

After a long work sessions, this is the status

[Trig]

Brilliant build, looking great.

 

Still impressed with the weathering look you've achieved.

 

Are you fitting sails? After my last build i was thinking of building my Bounty "admiralty" style with just stubs of masts, but yours looks pretty nice with just the rigging. May do it that way instead. I think the sails on my last build hid too much of the work, and didnt look that great anyway. Certainly not by the time i was finishing sewing them

Thanks Trim

 

Have I explained you how I got it?  whatever you want from me..  It is just my second kit but I'm doing my best

[Schrader]

Trig

 

That is always the dilemma.  I don't know yet.  Sails is something really nice, but you are right they cover a lot.  Probably I'll try some rolled sails

[Trig]

You've certainly picked it up very well !

 

Yeah, you mentioned in your first posts using Vallejo Ochre, graphite and a rubber.Do you go over it with the rubber to rub some graphite into it, then give the full thing a coat of vallejo Ochre? Varnish or anything afterwards?

 

Might give it a try myself if you dont mind a copycat !

 

Rolled sails could be a nice compromise.

of course not.  I don't mind.  Just be careful.  the ochre paint shoul be just a wash.

 

1. use some graphite powder on the wood deck
2. expand the graphite with a cloth
3. Use a rubber to take as much you can the graphite
4. Take a look about the joints.  They should show off with the graphite.  Also the clear basswood should bring its curves/veins aswell
5. put some Vallejo Ochre diluted in water (very diluted) with a cloth on the wood. 
6. Wait for drying.
7. You can simulate the nails with a pyrograph.

You need to try it before please.
