HMS Snake by Matthew - Caldercraft - 1:64 scale


Recommended Posts

Hello and welcome to my build log for Calder craft H.M.S Snake

this is my second build but my first log.

I found that i learned a lot on my first build and i hope to learn more as i go with this build going to try new things and improve  on things i did first time.

This is going to be a slow build hope to have it done in about 2 years but have seen build logs that have been going a lot longer so i am very flexible on time scale and realistic as to my abilities and skill level that i have at the moment 

First build H.M.S terror has taken me around 10 months and i want to go into more detail on Snake 

couple of pics to start only got to stage of false keel and bulk heads glued started to fair the bulk heads and working on a rabbit line at the moment

Welcome to the Snake club Matthew, you seem to have made a very solid start.  Definitely don't be afraid to fair the bulkheads a bit more, that will really help you get a smooth line of the planking.

Cheers,
 
Jason
