" LE CENTAURE 1782" Scale 1/36

 

April 2015 I started with the construction of the model and soon realized,

"that is a big think".

I wanted to present it as a cross-section model with complete interior design,

in the style of my model  BONHOMME RICHARD 1779.

On some whim I finished the construction Oktober 2016,

all nicely packed and mothballed.

I still want to show the images of the construction protocol,

and have the hope that it will eventually be built further.

The sequence of images extends over a period of eighteen month

in the time-lapse mode.

The series of Book on the 74 guns  written by Jean Boudriot will always be the best reference to learn and understand the construction of ship.

I surely would like to see more of that 74!

The inboard doors would go into the captain's cabin.  The area below that is basically a "ward room" for the other officers (to use a modern term).

I think the word "style" works here.  The French had some very beautiful ships with their carvings, motifs, etc. 

 

Wooden ships were not all that watertight compared to steel ones.  The hulls were well calked but rain and waves could put water into the hold pretty quick due to the number stairs, gratings, etc. including many (especially frigates) have the open center section.

Hello model building friends.

 

After completing the "ROYAL CAROLINE",

the question arose, what now?

The solution is the already existing "74 GunShip" section.

The pictures show the current state of construction.

I will have to make some changes to the rear/mirror first because

I decided it must be the "LE CENTAURE 1782" .

 

A big help in the constructionof this model, especially in the interior,

will be Gaetan Bordeleau with his 74 GunShip model.

 

Karl

What a shame to remove all of that beautiful work.  But the rework will undoubtedly look even better.

To all model building friends,

 

 Question and request,

does anyone have documents, photos, pictures of  that Model / Ship

LE CENTAURE 1782 ?

 

I would be very grateful for any information.

Hello and thanks to everyone for their kind comments.

 

Orlop Deck,

Dividing walls and pumps-shaft installed.

I leave the shaft partly open to show the pumps

and the cannonball shaft with its three diffrent calibres.

 

First gun deck,

partially planked to show the substructure.

 

Next I will probably install the ballast stones and storage barrels.

Production of the storage barrels in the individual work steps.

 

Although I didn't fill the entire storage room with it.

 

The ballast stones should actually be a bit smaller and more rounded,

but I didn't get them anywhere. Also works like that.

 

Gerard Delacroix once wrote to me,

Ballast stones were roughly the size of a walnut.

 

Ballast stones were mixed thoroughly with grinding ground sa an adhesive,

and filled up between the individual barrels.
