scrubbyj427 Posted April 18, 2022 Author Share #301 Posted April 18, 2022 And finally 12! Easter brought the gift of time to rig guns! So now I will begin chapter 7 and then continue with the rest of the guns when I finish. Looking forward to getting some beams in place and completing my lantern project.

scrubbyj427 Posted April 18, 2022 Author Share #304 Posted April 18, 2022 Thanks Guys. So far I’m happy with the results. Once you get in a rhythm with them, they aren’t bad. The next time around I need to make 12 carriages and rig them all, so much larger task. I had made these carriages months ago.

scrubbyj427 Posted June 24, 2022 Author Share #307 Posted June 24, 2022 I snuck some time in to work on my Winnie the last few days, pulled a few late nights but I finally made some headway on chapter 7. I still Need to fine tune the aft deck beam and permanently set my lantern wiring before I can complete the transom. All the beams went together relatively easily, just lots of test fitting. I added some fluted columns to the transom frames, I’ve seen this before on some models and I’ve always liked it but I mainly did it to cover up my lantern wire run up the inner stbd frame and it worked out well. I stole Bens idea and used the laser etched mouldings that I had leftover for the tops and bottoms of the columns....still wish I did that on the outside... oh well. It was really fun to get back to work on Winnie again, I decided to build most of the stove for fun while I waited for beams to dry. Hopefully I can get some more completed in a couple weeks.

scrubbyj427 Posted June 24, 2022 Author Share #310 Posted June 24, 2022 Thanks Guys, it’s good to finally cut and glue some wood again. I’ll be back at it in a couple weeks, I’ll finish chapter 7 and move right into guns again.. I’ll probably be lazy and tackle the 6 up front so I can begin chapter 8. I can handle 6 guns without losing my mind lol.

scrubbyj427 Posted August 7, 2022 Author Share #313 Posted August 7, 2022 Been slowly plugging away at chapter 7. I’ve got my first set of lamps in, now I can begin working my way forward to complete chapter 7. I’ve been building some fittings, including the pumps and the stove and I started on the forward guns in anticipation of chapter 8. I’ve also got the first bulkhead installed and after I complete a few more sets of lamps I can move on to the next bulkhead. Lots of care has been taken to make the electrical element as discrete as possible, I have been thinking of how to accomplish this for months and I decided on a simple system of carving a small channel into the underside of the beam and gently running the wire with some pva to secure it. The natural beams will be the hardest, as soon as I hit the red ones I can begin to fill the channel and smooth it out and simply paint it again. Big thank you to Gabe @Gabek for his assistance with the lamp printing, the resin printer captured the 3D model wonderfully. These are very small pieces and require some assembly work as well as an opaque glazing. I’m happy with the results.

scrubbyj427 Posted August 8, 2022 Author Share #315 Posted August 8, 2022 So here’s a few shots in very dim light. I need to start using a real camera, this iPhone just doesn’t capture what it really looks like, they are much warmer and not nearly as bright as the camera shows. Very happy with the LED’s that I went with, this will display very well and lifelike when complete. garyshipwright, Nunnehi (Don), bdgiantman2 and 21 others 16 8 Current Builds: HMS Winchelsea 1764 1:48 - 5th rate 32 gun frigate (on hold for now) HMS Portland 1770 Prototype 1:48 - 4th rate 50 gun ship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glbarlow Posted August 9, 2022 Share #317 Posted August 9, 2022 Those lamps are amazing. I’ve not been a fan of LED lighting on models but your authentic lamps are very appealing and give a whole new character to the model and something I’ve not seen before. It will look great sitting somewhere acting as a warm, soft light accent tone.

dvm27 Posted August 9, 2022 Share #319 Posted August 9, 2022 Perfectly done lighting, looks very natural.

So I did install lamps in the companionways to illuminate the steps, once I started the subdecks and other coamings I quickly realized my error and had one of those face to palm moments, I didn’t want to start ripping up wood at that point. The next time around I won’t miss that opportunity!

jfhealey Posted October 5, 2022 Share #328 Posted October 5, 2022 May I second Frank's view of the lamps? I suspect they are tricky to do in the sense that done well (beautifully executed, in the right place and to scale) they look really good and done badly they look like a plastic dolls house - and yours look really good as does your build generally. I am sure I am not alone in thinking the standard of Winchelsea builds is remarkable. I hope Chuck is very proud of his achievement and that you are of yours. all the best Fred FrankWouts, hollowneck and scrubbyj427 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
