Daniel Filipe Posted November 5, 2021 Share #1 Posted November 5, 2021 (edited) Good evening everyone, this is going to be my second build. The package arrived today. While i was waiting for the model i did a basic research about the Golden Hind and some plans showed up. What do you think about this deck? Having cannons on the upper deck.. like HMS Revenge.. In my opinion, I really like the ideia of having cannons on the upper deck. That’s why I’m requesting your opinion on this subject. 🙏🏻 1st image - box 2nd image - deck (picture taken from internet) Edited November 5, 2021 by Daniel Filipe GrandpaPhil, ccoyle and BobG 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baker Posted November 5, 2021 Share #3 Posted November 5, 2021 5 years ago I also had so many questions.

Hartron Posted November 5, 2021 Share #4 Posted November 5, 2021 10 hours ago, Daniel Filipe said: The deck just above the bottom of the ship does not seem right to me. It would essentially make the hold unacessible. If we consider the ship without that deck, its guns are on its only deck, which seems right. The ship would certainy not be lower if it had another deck above the gun deck. Small ships often had just one deck, and the temptation to arm the highest deck seems to always have been very strong, so I see no reason to expect Golden Hinds highest deck was not armed. maddog33 and Baker 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baker Posted November 5, 2021 Share #5 Posted November 5, 2021 11 hours ago, Daniel Filipe said: This drawing comes from this book When it came out this must have been a fantastic book. I have this book too. But with the current information available, this book is no longer recommended ( in my opinion) Cannons on the main deck are possible. But only light calibers on this relatively small ship Quote Regards, Patrick Finished : Soleil Royal Heller 1/100 Wasa Billing Boats Bounty Revell 1/110 plastic (semi scratch) Pelican / Golden Hind 1/45 scratch Current build : Mary Rose 1/50 scratch Gallery : Revell Bounty Pelican/Golden hind 1/45 scratch To do : Prins Willem Corel, Le Tonnant Corel, Yacht d'Oro Corel, Thermopylae Sergal Shore leave, non ship models build logs : ADGZ M35 funkwagen 1/72 Einhets Pkw.

Daniel Filipe Posted November 5, 2021 Author Share #6 Posted November 5, 2021 Thank you so much, i have now a better perception about this. It makes sense when it comes to the stability and center of gravity. Maybe tonight I’ll start de construction 😋 Baker 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Filipe Posted November 7, 2021 Author Share #7 Posted November 7, 2021 It is going to be a challenge because i have some future upgrades to make on the ship. The Occre brand tells me to glue the cannons that come in the box, directly on the wood. I really don’t like to see that on a model. I think it’s possible, creating some supports inside, painting black to give that darkness.. I think I’ve seen a post here on the forum but can’t find one talking about that. Replacing the metal doors for wood ones, placing some rope on the gun ports, rope for the small cannons on the upper deck, (just four). Many things on the list 🥳 Thanks for the comments everyone 🙏🏻🙏🏻 Baker and BobG 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Filipe Posted November 8, 2021 Author Share #8 Posted November 8, 2021 Good evening everyone, started today. very happy because the false keel is not warped.

Daniel Filipe Posted November 9, 2021 Author Share #10 Posted November 9, 2021 Thanks @BobG Glued the frames and started sanding the two small supports at the bow. It will be more easy when planking the strips. GrandpaPhil, BobG and ccoyle 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Filipe Posted November 9, 2021 Author Share #11 Posted November 9, 2021 I must leave 4mm for the keel. On the Polaris i sanded to much and now I want to prevent that 😅 BobG, Baker and GrandpaPhil 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baker Posted November 10, 2021 Share #12 Posted November 10, 2021 Nice start. Are there something such as filler blocks on the bow? This will make planking here easier.

Daniel Filipe Posted November 13, 2021 Author Share #15 Posted November 13, 2021 Good evening, Before starting planking the deck, i need some advices about the size of the wood strips. I think they are too big comparing with the scale. What would you do in this type of situation?

Baker Posted November 13, 2021 Share #16 Posted November 13, 2021 What is "too big" What are the dimensions of the planks?

Daniel Filipe Posted November 13, 2021 Author Share #17 Posted November 13, 2021 The width of the strips. Photo from another build. For me, the width of the strips should be smaller. They have 5mm i think. GrandpaPhil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baker Posted November 13, 2021 Share #18 Posted November 13, 2021 5mm on this scale is wide. But there are no strict rules For deck planking in this era.
