Dutch Yacht 1679 by PvG Aussie - Scale 1/200


Recommended Posts

Having run out of space in my work room, and also discovering the wonderful work done by @Javier Baron, I am going to have a crack at a miniature build myself.

 

The ship I plan to build is a 21m/69' Dutch yacht which will be reduced in length to 107mm/4.212". Plans for this ship are fairly detailed but written in Turkish and are not very clear so I anticipate a bit of fun along the way. I don't mind challenges.😯

Wish me luck as I 'go on my way' down a possibly rocky road. :rolleyes:

Cheers,

This yacht as we see it here on the plan is originally a reconstruction by Hoeckel of the Electorate of Brandenburg Staten Yacht, the Large (Große) or Golden (Goldene) Yacht, from 1678/79.

So the Yacht has a name, but with modified decoration it can certainly also serve other states with different names.

Two days of fun.

Nothing exciting for Day One.

Just scaling back the plans. Cutting parts and putting the main structure together ... nothing new, just very small. 🧐

Day Two.

I worked on the bow, rudder and stern. 

All that was essential, was a sharp pointed blade. 🗡️

I also started a little planking. (Continuing tomorrow)

Breaking parts and sticking things to fingers was the order of the day. :rolleyes:

Cheers,
