Wow I have no words... This ship is absolutely amazing and the shipyard modeling technique is my favourite. The coolest part I think it is is the stern quarters. How did you drilled all those moldings and fittings? I have a small electric driller with modeling tools but if like to learn more how to do them. Stunning model!

Exceptionally eautiful work, Karl, as usual for you!

 

I like the way you make a pattern for the hanging knees, using little pieces with a general template. I will use that idea!

Hello Alan.

 

French naval cannons in the 18th century were so rigged.

 

The thick (red marked) rope in picture 1 caught the recoil of the cannon with the mount.

 

Mark commented that correctly. Thanks a lot for this.

 

regards

 

Karl

Thanks to everyone for the kind comments.

 

Before mounting the cannons and equipment on the second gun deck,

deck beams fitted on the upper deck (Gaillards ?) .
