Sergey Karelia Posted April 26, 2023 Share #1 Posted April 26, 2023 Hello everyone! A few years ago I started assembling this amazing ship. the elements from the set are not quite satisfied - they are very brittle. For this reason, I had to do a lot myself and took a lot of time. for some period I was at a dead end until I found this forum - I have very little information on the ship. Here I looked at the topics on this model and was inspired by the model again. chris watton, schooner, ccoyle and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergey Karelia Posted April 27, 2023 Author Share #3 Posted April 27, 2023 Not quite. Only drawings, carronades and cannons remained from the kit. I used pear rails for the deck, sheathed the sides with black and yellow hornbeam (I do not like and do not know how to paint wood). the frames were brittle, I cut everything out of plywood. I wind the threads myself from Gutermann Tera, they are not twisted in the set in my opinion ccoyle and schooner 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergey Karelia Posted April 30, 2023 Author Share #7 Posted April 30, 2023 I started assembling the hammock netting. chose an easy way it did not work out exactly to make a rail (the textile is movable), I'll take them off. I'll try to put wooden slats. but the concept is correct chris watton and abelson 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergey Karelia Posted May 8, 2023 Author Share #15 Posted May 8, 2023 over the past couple of days, we have only managed to prepare the threads. I made 10 meters each. it will take much more. I decided to remake the guns. I did well, but I can do better ccoyle and DanielD 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
