Your craftmanship is amazing! The planking of the stern might well have taken longer, but the result is gorgeous.

Best regards,

Thanks for looking in, Malcom, Patrick and D. And thank you for the kind words. Well I finally got to the point where I can start the planking in earnest, with this hull shape I really didn’t want to do scale length planks so I pretty much doubled the length and I am using a 3 butt shift. I think this is what I am going to be doing for a while.... planking..... 😎

The planking looks good, Lou, and the bow looks like it is not easy to plank. Great progress.

Been itching to start a POF model but decided to finish a couple projects that I have already started, so I’m continuing with the pear planking on my Revenge. I thought the 5mm planking provided in the kit was out of scale (too wide) so I’ve been using 4mm wide planks - takes a lot more planks but looks better to me. Golf and RC Glider flying season are still a ways off so hopefully I’ll make some good progress before then.
