Coast Guard Cutter Pequot 1908 by svein erik - FINISHED - 1/48 scale


Recommended Posts

Svein Erik, 

Very nice build of yours, I might try the aluminium tape on my Danmark (Billings Boat), since it's will be painted white. 
That hull looks amazing.
Then I have seen some other builds in the background. A Syren, 2 Longboats?, and an upcoming schnellboot Typ S-38.

Are you to make the schnellboot as a remote controlled boat?

Am back...... wel i started on the huge build again  

in most of the photo i have seen you cant see  the dekk clear , i can see there is a wood dekking , but is this for the hole dekk or

some of it ?  so i desided to yust plank the hole dekk an leave it with that.

am starting at the rear end , working my way to the bow .

the planks wil have a curve its going to be alot of edge bending here, i hope it wil work out in the end😊

Prop support frames can be very tricky with all those compound angles to negotiate but you pulled it off rather well. The hull plating also looks very good. Well done.

The hull is looking rather fine, particularly the plating details. A bit of scale indication on the shackles, blocks and hooks would be helpful. Including a match or something similar might be useful.
