Furling work on main top sail.

[Rock_From_Korea]

Main top gallant sail attached : I could not make it look good partially furled, so I furled it completely.

Main mast sheets and rigging all done except a few items that are left for later.

Hi All,

 

Speeding up the work in the shipyard and finished the square sail installments. Moving on to stay sails and life boat construction. Below are some pictures during the finishing phase of the square sail work.

Finished with square sails and couple of shots taken in a slightly brighter area of the house.

Hi All,

 

Finished the life boat. Used the kit provided lifeboat as a template for scratch building this life boat. It is my first scratch built life boat using no plans. Here are some photos of the work.

After the initial frame work finished, the planking of the boat begins~

First stain applied and worked on the pedestal that would support the lifeboat on the main ship.

Hi All,

 

I have been working on stay sails in tandem with the life boat. Below are some pictures of these works.

 

Works on flying jib sail and jib sail.

Finishing the stay sail installments.

[Rock_From_Korea]

Stay sails all finished and just couple of rigging work left to do after life boat is secured to the main deck and some other tidying up work are finished. Once again, brought the ship out to a relatively brighter area of the house for some photos.

Hi All,

 

All rigging are finished and life boat mounted to the main deck. I think in about 2 weeks the ship will be finished. I did not like the work on flags and will probably redo them later.

Final rigging work.

All riggings finished and some photos taken from various angles.

Hi All,

 

Nearing the finish line now! I think the final photos will be uploaded next week. below are some photos taken during the final works.

Well done Rock from Korea. It is always a great feeiing when finishing a model. May I ask how long it has taking you and I am wondering if the sails came with the kit. I am currently building the Endeavour by Caldercraft but i have a long way to go yet. There is an awful lot of work to complete on the Endeavour even without the sails which is the case with the Caldercraft version. I am currently doing a blog too. Have you any thoughts on what you might build next or do you need a rest. Only joking Haha. Best of luck with any future builds. Sorry I didn't catch this build until later on.

Hi Dave,

 

Thanks very much for your kind words! I think it took me just little bit more than 1 year (say 1.2 years) - quite fast due to the COVID-19 situation. Corel kit does not come with any sails, nor does Corel provide any plans for sheets. The sails are made from fabric I purchased seperately - pretty much the thinnest fabric that can be worked on by a sewing machine. I bench-marked the Artesania Latina sail plans for the work on sheets. My next project is scratch built Golden Hind which I will be able to post from the beginning this time.

 

Anyway, all the best with you current build!!  I will be following your current build.

Hi All,

 

Finally finished my work on HMS Endeavor and ready to go to my sister's house this weekend! The work took a bit more than 1 year - much shorter than I expected (COVID-19 definitely having an impact here). Thank you all for your encouragement and guidance!!

 

The final work : the name tag.

Some daylight photos.

Attempting to do photographs with dark background. The last 3 photos are taken by my daughter with her iPhone - I think they are better than my pictures!

Thanks! My next project will be a scratch built Golden Hind. It will be actually my first scratch building project~
