kostas_gr Posted November 23, 2018 #1 Posted November 23, 2018 I have always wanted to build a cross section, and since my next build will be HMS victory, so I have chosen corel's Victory and corel's victory cross section in 1:98 scale. I 've been told, that corel's kit is quite old and in some parts outdated. some pictures from cargohold, I have added pump house, shot holder and hull ribs Ian_Grant, cristikc and Fright 3 Quote Current builds: Hermione la Fayette - Artesnia latina 1:89 HMS Victory - Corel 1:98 Completed builds: San Juan Nepomuceno - Artesnia latina 1:90 San Francisco II - Artesnia latina 1:90 Victory cross section - Corel 1:98

kostas_gr Posted November 23, 2018 Author #3 Posted November 23, 2018 after finishing hull rib, and install pump house etc, I made a mistake and I had to remove it I had to rebuild it again, but it was very hard to put it again where it was, so I cut it in two parts and tried to install it as it shown in picture there are gaps. Those gaps will be not shown when is finished because of the rocks I will place in cargohold Fright 1 Quote Current builds: Hermione la Fayette - Artesnia latina 1:89 HMS Victory - Corel 1:98 Completed builds: San Juan Nepomuceno - Artesnia latina 1:90 San Francisco II - Artesnia latina 1:90 Victory cross section - Corel 1:98

kostas_gr Posted October 13, 2020 Author #23 Posted October 13, 2020 Corel's kit is providing brass holders for the deck pillars that actually dont look very nice, so I have tried to replace them with wooden holders. The first try was much better than the original pillars, but the result is not what I was expecting, so I tried to add some woodwork to make them look ore realistic (final attempt) 5 decks, with 6 pillars each.... 30 pillars...
