HMB Endeavour by Maciek - Caldercraft - 1/64

[Maciek]

Hello

time to start build log of the HMB Endeavour by Caldercraft.

I am planning to make her as detailed as I can, using all source of information i can find. For now I have only Anatomy of the Ship that should be good start.

 

Quality of parts is very good, but blocks i will change for aftermarket one

 

 

fit is tight but everything fit perfectly

 

now time to start planking 

 

Best,

Maciek

Hi

works slowly progressing. First planking is completed but in this episod i want to show You deck and the way i choose to make tree nails effect.

 

first, photos of final effect

 

 

to achieve this I choose very simple method that could be describe in 3 steps

1. make a hole

2. take a wax for wood repairing

3. scrape excess wax, it comes off very easily

 

before and after I covered the deck with clear varnish

 

 

I know, tree nails should be in wood color but for artistic reasons I chose darker for contrast.

 

thats all for today, till the next time

Excellent start made, look forward to watching this progress.
