Wonderful, I love these models. Great to see one of the vessels documented by Xavier Pastor being built, too.

 

How did you plank that round stern?

I have made the hull according to my disposable frame technique. To help the lining of the bow and stern I make both of them solid with balsa wood on which I glue the lining boards (which are also glued together) and then remove this balsa wood

I am confined

Yes Javier - we all seem to be in prison, but at least here the criminals are getting early release. Funny world at the moment.

    You work at 1:175 and seem to have much less trouble putting in details than I have @ 1:96!
