It appears from the photos you are attempting edge bend planks right on the model which typically does not work. Have you studied the following on two popular planking techniques that eliminate the lifting of the planks that you are experiencing? https://thenrg.org/resources/Documents/articles/APrimerOnPlanking.pdf https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCWooJ1o3cM Allan Bryan Woods 1 Quote PLEASE take 30 SECONDS and sign up for the epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series.

Bryan Woods Posted January 30 Author Share #35 Posted January 30 The temperature finally rose, and made it possible for me to finish the first planking. It has made me realize I’m not quite ready to take on the second layer at this time. I may try the half hull project, and see if I feel more confident afterwards. Here are some shots of the first planking.

wmherbert Posted January 31 Share #36 Posted January 31 Trust me. Putty, sand, paint and hull will look great. My models all have painted hulls and I've never done a second planking. Beautiful planking is a real skill. Certainly one I don't have. Bill Gregory, Bryan Woods, Knocklouder and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
