HMS Winchelsea by Beckmann 1/48

Hello everybody and thank you for the kind words and the likes.

At the moment I am working on finishing the last parts of equipment. Guns, swivel-guns and the stern lantern.

The model is a bit dusty, but here are some photos.

The stern lantern will be the last step. I will make it from ivory again.

Thank you all for the kind words and the likes. What's next? Well, the stern lantern and display case of course. And then I circle around a special project of a danish ship. Designed by a french shipbuilder in 1742 and decorated by a german master-carver. It is a bit early to show something here. A contemporary model survived in Copenhagen and a few quite detailed plans.

Matthias, your Winnie looks great, well done! What kind of case are you going to do?

Hi Don, I will make a display-case similar to the one I made for my HMS-Unicorn model.

I have got same pear-wood for this wich I plan to use.

Here you can see the case I made and the drawing for the new one.

I really like the idea of multiple models in one case and beautiful work on your previous display. Looking forward to seeing more.

Thank you!

This weekend I made the stern lantern, as I said from ivory agein, like some of the other features.

I did not use laser cut, like I did for the galery-windows, but cut the parts with a jigsaw. I must say, this is better than laser cut, because the heat of the laser somehow affects the material and makes it a bit yellow and more fragile.

After cutting out all the parts I made the bottom and the roof, wich are assemblied from several parts.

The windows needed a careful sanding, to not look too crooked.

Then I glued the parts together...

...added the candle and the glazing...

and here we go, everything finished for being mounted on the model.

I will add the lantern to the model, once the display case is completed. Otherwise I will break it of for shure, while carrying the model around.

Thank you all for the comments and likes.

 

at the moment I am working on the dispay case.

As I showed above, I want to make a case for three models. My Queen Anne-barge 1"/2' scale and my bone model of the azorean whaleboat wich I showed in my other build log on MSW, also 1"/2' scale. They will be together in the "ground floor" and above them the Winchelsea. Last year I cut a pear tree and so I have some nice pearwood for the case.

by now it is dry enough and I started on the table of the case.

 

1.thumb.jpg.ea2bc9f80a3e9b934bf7dca92f58fb94.jpgI started with the legs for the table, dimension 40/40/400 mm

 

2.thumb.jpg.08c4c2c4f1c86979eb956647ce4d6a6d.jpg

Then the table was put together...

3.thumb.jpg.70d26c66c42d7ae5daa41dfacfd6f2e0.jpg

some parts to stiffen the construction in the corners...

4.thumb.jpg.2dba038885291ddac3bf30428d7061b1.jpg

Some strips to cover up the top...

 

5.thumb.jpg.6ce53059e47bfa37879568d0ddb4208b.jpg

Here ist one of the models for the ground floor, the mirror-basement will come into the display case as well.

Hi Everybody,

my display case is still not finished, but I managed to make some progress with the stand. I saw, that many displays have the model parallel to the keel, my model will be sitting parallel to the waterline. There will be two collumns, one at the bow, one at the stern wich have a different length to get the balance.

Here are some pictures:

These are beautiful, so well crafted. I bet a bunch of Winnie builders would happily buy a set. I have no clue how I’ll mount mine and certainly don’t have the skill to make anything like this. Well done!

Regards,

Glenn
