Kevin Kenny Posted July 23, 2022 #211 Posted July 23, 2022 Yes i like that touch. Any reason why you did not do the others in lead? mtaylor, ct mike, KentM and 3 others 6
giampieroricci Posted July 24, 2022 Author #212 Posted July 24, 2022 I'm glad you like it! This is just a test I did. I will put the others up after I have completed the inner planking of the broadside KentM and mtaylor 2
druxey Posted July 30, 2022 #214 Posted July 30, 2022 Might I suggest using pewter, not lead? Lead will deteriorate to lead salts over time. And that would be a pity on such a terrific model. bruce d, No Idea, albert and 5 others 8 Be sure to sign up for an epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series http://trafalgar.tv

Kevin Kenny Posted August 1, 2022 #217 Posted August 1, 2022 Why not blacken brass or copper? French Mr Bean and mtaylor 2
garyshipwright Posted August 2, 2022 #218 Posted August 2, 2022 why not just use plastic tubing paint black. Yes guy's I know it's plastic but it still scratch built. 😁 mtaylor and French Mr Bean 1 1 HMS Montague/Alfred class by Gary B 74 gun ship built in 1779

druxey Posted August 2, 2022 #220 Posted August 2, 2022 I suppose slightly oxidized silver might be another possibility. mtaylor and French Mr Bean 2 Be sure to sign up for an epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series http://trafalgar.tv

allanyed Posted September 9, 2022 #234 Posted September 9, 2022 This is incredible detail for which you should be commended! It gives one the feeling of the gentle swaying with the rolling of the ship. Kudos! mtaylor 1

giampieroricci Posted September 17, 2022 Author #239 Posted September 17, 2022 The gratings: I have taken a little liberty in interpreting the fore hatch gratings as far as the passage of the elbows is concerned. I was inspired by the work done by Matiz on his Euryalus, although perhaps the eras are slightly different. gjdale, GrandpaPhil, Trussben and 26 others 22 7
