westwood Posted February 6, 2022 Author Share #31 Posted February 6, 2022 Hi guys, the first layer of wales is done and I've started painting the gunports. I'm not at all sure if this is a good red. It's this one: Vallejo Cadmium Red Medium Wouldn't it be better: Vallejo Cadmium Red Deep Unfortunately I can't get a better picture of it. What do you think? There is only the first coat so far.

glbarlow Posted February 6, 2022 Share #32 Posted February 6, 2022 (edited) I used Cadium Red on Cheerful, it looks great. There is no best color other than the one you like. Personally I like RED.

westwood Posted March 16, 2022 Author Share #38 Posted March 16, 2022 Hey guys, I haven't made a post in a long time, even though I've been working almost every day. I also bought Cadmium Red Deep and I like it more. The third time I painted the gunnports with a mixture of 1part Cadmium medium and 2 parts deep. Unfortunately it doesn't show up well in the pics. In real it looks better. But when I do the inner planking I will experiment more. I may end up using only Cadmium Red Deep.

westwood Posted March 20, 2022 Author Share #46 Posted March 20, 2022 Thank you for the nice comments and for the likes guys, it always encourages! On the starboard side I glued the first two strakes below the wales. Maybe I'll add 1-2 more strakes to make it sanding smoother . But before that - Lining of the Hull. And then I'll add a second layer of wales, what I'm looking forward to it.

glbarlow Posted March 20, 2022 Share #47 Posted March 20, 2022 The second layer and paint makes it look so much more like a ship. Fun stuff😊 Your planking looks great.

westwood Posted April 12, 2022 Author Share #49 Posted April 12, 2022 Linning off the Hull ... only a few pictures, Thanks to Chuck's tick strips, I only needed to make slight adjustments. But surely a constant check during the planking will be necessary. Before I started the second layer of wales I glued one strake as I planned.

Chuck Posted April 12, 2022 Share #52 Posted April 12, 2022 Lovely planking so far. Just watch the planking over the first three bulkheads as you work your way lower. I see many people start to develop a dip there that will look like a dent in the hull in the lower two belys. Try and correct this if you see this developing. And absolutely turn the hull right side up to check this.....its the only way to really tell for sure.

westwood Posted April 17, 2022 Author Share #54 Posted April 17, 2022 Thanks for the likes guys, some photos for Easter... I added the anchor lining and after the final sanding of the second layer of wales I used a Fiebings Leather Dye stain. I like it because it is beautiful to see the texture of the wood. But the processing was difficult.

westwood Posted April 17, 2022 Author Share #55 Posted April 17, 2022 Maybe I was too hurried because after finishing the planking there will still be a lot of sanding to be done, and then I'll apply one more final coat and then add the Black strake at last. And on top of that will be applied liquid wax.

scrubbyj427 Posted April 17, 2022 Share #57 Posted April 17, 2022 That looks really good, I think the dye is a much better way to go than black paint. I will definitely be using that next time.

glbarlow Posted April 17, 2022 Share #58 Posted April 17, 2022 Your build is looking great! I might suggest you consider a matte or even satin finish, the high gloss of the liquid wax might be a bit much on a model as large as Winchelsea. Just a thought.

westwood Posted May 15, 2022 Author Share #59 Posted May 15, 2022 Hey guys, I haven't made a post in a long time because all my energy has been directed towards planking... reply to the wax, in that one photo it's freshly applied and it gives the look of gloss. I also prefer a matte or satin look. But this point is still too far, I can't wax continuously otherwise I wouldn't be able to glue on the waxed surface anymore and that's a bit of a disadvantage compared to wipe on poly. So I finished the first belt, this is what it looks like FrankWouts, Saburo, Edwardkenway and 1 other 4 Dusan Currently building: HMS Winchelsea 1764 by westwood - 1:48 Revenge 1577 - by westwood - 1:64 In preparation: Fourth-rate ship 1681 - 1:48 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
