Beckmann Posted April 5, 2020 Author Share #183 Posted April 5, 2020 (edited) This is the profile I tried to come close to. I made the scraper out of an old saw blade. I used dremel and files to form it. then scraping the boxwood strip. With not much force. and then bending and gluing it in position I find bending this profile really difficult. It is so small, but very resiliant when you want to bend it.

Beckmann Posted April 30, 2020 Author Share #184 Posted April 30, 2020 Hello everybody, I spent some time playing around with photoshop. I wanted to make an attempt to use the stern frieze wich is painted on the Winchelsea model at Greenwitch. What do you think? Here are some pictures.

Beckmann Posted May 3, 2020 Author Share #187 Posted May 3, 2020 (edited) I started building the Qgalleries. Chuck, did you somehow double up the upper fancy molding? I had to put a strip underneath it, otherwise the collums would not fit underneath the profile. I also sanded the roof, but that does not fit properly yet.

Beckmann Posted May 3, 2020 Author Share #189 Posted May 3, 2020 Maybe my profile is just scraped too thin at the lower edge. It was a great moment, adding the first of Jack‘s superb figures to the model. Heronguy and FrankWouts 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beckmann Posted May 17, 2020 Author Share #190 Posted May 17, 2020 Today I almost finished the port side Qgallery. These photos are always so mercyless. Now I see the incorrect angles and the bent window glazing. I didn't see that in my workshop under the artificial light. But there is still the starbord Qgallery to do it better.

Chuck Posted May 17, 2020 Share #191 Posted May 17, 2020 Looks good but that window glazing will get so dusty on the inside and impossible to clean. I wouldnt add it until much much later. No need to do it now at all. I have also just switched to black on the top of the roof after much contemplation. It looks better to my eye and make the fancy rail stand out much more. See the photo below. Something to consider.

Beckmann Posted May 17, 2020 Author Share #192 Posted May 17, 2020 Okay thanks for the advice. I will close the Qgallery with tape from the inside, that might help against the dust. I actually just spent more than one hour searching one of the windows wich fell down when I carried the model outside, thats why I spontaniously glued them to the model. I was so happy finding it inside the doormat. Matthias Rustyj, Ryland Craze and FrankWouts 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beckmann Posted June 12, 2020 Author Share #193 Posted June 12, 2020 The friezes and Fancy moldings on both sides together with the Qgallery-roofs are now finished. After printing the friezes, I sprayed the paper 2-3 times with varnish, then cut it out and glued it to the model. Here are some Pictures. Now I look forward to the stern with all the wonderful carvings from Jack. That will be the absolute higlight of my so far modelbuilding.

Beckmann Posted July 6, 2020 Author Share #201 Posted July 6, 2020 The carvings are now added to the stern. I had some trouble to get the right balance of Neptun and Diana. (is it Diana, or Athene?), because Neptun is a little bit larger. Here you can see the result.

Chuck Posted July 12, 2020 Share #204 Posted July 12, 2020 You are welcome. Its just as much fun to watch you guys build it. Im actually making some progress on mine and should have an update soon as well. I am glad that you are enjoying it. I really wanted to create a project for a frigate that was like no other available commercially.....as far as the amount of detail and accuracy. I was leery at first that it was too large a project to have a group like this but hopefully you guys agree it was worthwhile and fun to do.

Beckmann Posted August 3, 2020 Author Share #205 Posted August 3, 2020 Hello Everybody, Chapter III is done now, the model looks so beautiful, thanks again Chuck, for this design. so it is time now to do some cleaning and repairs and maybe continue rigging of a few older models.

Beckmann Posted November 8, 2020 Author Share #207 Posted November 8, 2020 (edited) Hi Matt, thanks for your sympathy! While waiting for some parts, I started the rigging of an 1/75 Model of a frigate. The parts for the next Winchelsea arrived long time ago, but the rigging takes so much time, that I didn't yet continue with the next chapter. Here are some pictures, of where I'm stuck at the moment. Examples from NMM Making sails making the yards and adding the sails most of the time goes to reading to understand, how the rigging works.

Beckmann Posted December 26, 2020 Author Share #209 Posted December 26, 2020 Merry Christmas to all of you. I hope you are enjoying some time with your shipmodels. My wife got me an incredible book about the shipmodels of the musee de la marine in Paris. Looking at the great cabin of the frigate "La Flore" makes me dreaming of finally continuing my Winchelsea!!! My rigging project made some Progress, but I am running out of blocks, so Winnie will continue soon.
