Blocks on the fore tops. Not easy to fit everything to the topmast head but I believe all needed blocks are now There.

Finaly I find some time to get back to work on the RC. Not much to show. I'm rigging blocks to the main topmast head. I have also polished and temporarily placed figurhead.

Together with AVOS I bought alsi this kit. IMG_20190529_114100.thumb.jpg.81a4a90bdcbf6c66b7d53793d93052de.jpgIMG_20190529_114305.thumb.jpg.b1267a50def91897e3e1d436d0479612.jpgI would like to use it on RC instead of Panart's "schalupe" IMG_20190529_114126.thumb.jpg.10fdfd27154735ed4301eabcf20835b3.jpgbut it is smaller and I'm not sure how it will look. Anyway I'm taking it as a practice before AVOS and if not on RC I can use it on AVOS display few years later :D

Started with the assembly of the MK boat. No problem So far. All fits very well. One has to be really careful sending those very small and fragile pieces. I'm impressed by how it is designed (the building jig, framing from pear wood etc.) Super nice! Great work and ideas from MK👍

The boat is coming close to the finish. I Just need to place rudder, oars and do final sanding and varnish. Unfortunately I wil not use it on RC as it is too Tiny :(

But it was great fun and it is looking nice! Good preparation for AVOS build.

Added few last detail and put a varnish on it. The Iron work is missing but I consider it complete for now. I really love the colour of the wood! Back to RC rigging.......... I'adding also few photos with RC. What do you think?? Is it too small?

Great work! Congrats. Am going to follow you... am anxious to see the end result... putting sails on this beautiful build I imagine thats a challenge and I believe thats going to be an event for all of us modellers. I think nobody did this build with sails.

Hi, thanks for the comment. It still is a long way to go. 

Several builders from Czech did her with sails and those are lovely build.....

Ohh god, I feel so bad now (I scrolled Down this thread) and see the stage where I stopped. But I really needed rest from rigging. Unfortunately/fortunately AVOS cought me so deeply that I can't go back to RC right now

BUT I PROMISE I'm GOING TO FINISH THIS PROJECT!! please Just be patient. 

Thanks to all followers and all who likes what I am doing. 

In case you would like to see the ship I'm working on right now..... 

 

It is a lovely kit. So much fun building it!

Excellent work on hull and rigging! Something to aspire to. Hopefully you get back to her soon, otherwise I get stuck with my own RC😁.

 

I had one question. What colour blue are you using for the hull?  It is a beautiful shade.
