JanV Posted April 2, 2013 Author Share #31 Posted April 2, 2013 I see also a lot of simularities with other kits in the used figures, this was one of the points I already noticed in the selection phase of this kit. this will not be 100% correct according the original, only the items which can be changed I will change. (see earlier discussions in 2011/2012 on our Dutch Forum) the Lion will be golded, so I used the yellow as a primer Quote Jan V. current build: Vasa-1628 Corel / Battle Station Mantua/Panart, previous: Statenjacht / Cross section HMS Victory / diorama shipyard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

md1400cs Posted May 20, 2013 Share #47 Posted May 20, 2013 Jan, Nice update. I'm going to follow your lead and revisit my bowsprit lion, I really like the colors that you chose for the crest emblem. Mine were a pure guess and poorly done. Matti was discussing the lion paws. They should separate on each side of the timbers. But Corel's guilded piece does not allow for that. A minor issue, but one that makes us more aware of kit errors as we go along. Keep up the really nice work.

wim500 Posted June 18, 2013 Share #60 Posted June 18, 2013 Hi Jan, Nice progress you've made. If the handrail is too small in scale, it's maybe better to consider not to make one.
