popash42 Posted October 27, 2021 #1 Posted October 27, 2021 (edited) Hello Dear members I'm new to this respectable forum. I would like to share with you the construction of this special model.

popash42 Posted November 4, 2021 Author #3 Posted November 4, 2021 (edited) In the last few days I have been able to make some more progress in installing the frames of the firing / cannon windows and also in gluing the boards to the main deck. Edited November 4, 2021 by popash42 Quote
popash42 Posted November 10, 2021 Author #4 Posted November 10, 2021 (edited) In recent days I have returned to work on the bow of the ship and the openings of the cannon windows on the lower deck Edited November 10, 2021 by popash42 Quote

popash42 Posted November 27, 2021 Author #6 Posted November 27, 2021 (edited) Unfortunately my pace of work is not as I would like, but once every few weeks I find a few hours to work, so that's what happened this weekend Edited November 27, 2021 by popash42 Quote
Thunder Posted January 4, 2022 #8 Posted January 4, 2022 Hello Popash42, Nice to see one of the less common models being built here rather than the usual that everyone seems to be following. Your first planking looks to be coming on well and to a good standard, look forward to seeing this develop. popash42 1 Quote Current Build(s): H.M.S Diana 1794 - Caldercraft 1:64 Scale Completed Builds: H.M.S.

popash42 Posted February 7, 2022 Author #11 Posted February 7, 2022 (edited) Hello friends In the last month I have been having trouble clearing time for the model, what I have managed to do is paint work for the Window frames of the cannons in red and I the prominent 1.5 millimeter planking boards in black. I glued sticky paper over the areas that should remain in natural wood paint and painted the exposed boards in black acrylic paint Edited February 7, 2022 by popash42 Quote
