Jim M Posted 22 hours ago Author #62 Posted 22 hours ago All, I have decided to put this project on hold for a while until I get a couple more kits under my belt. I am struggling with getting the hand cut planks correct, and I will need to again start over. robert952, TOM G, ccoyle and 3 others 6 In progress Lady Eleanor by JIm M - Vanguard Models - 1:64 On hold Norwegian Sailing Pram - Model Shipways 18th Century Merchant half hull planking - NRG On the shelf Muscongus Bay Lobster Smack - Model Shipways Peterborough Canoe - Midwest Products/Model Shipways Batelina - MarisStella Junco China - Disarmodel Completed Model Shipways Lowell Grand Banks Grand Bank Dory - Midwest Products/Model Shipways

While I found the Half Hull an interesting model and it exercised a different set of modeling skills - and gave me a good appreciation for how hulls can be planked - it is quite different from the other kits I've attempted. My attempt wasn't a complete success by any means.

Jim M Posted 5 hours ago Author #65 Posted 5 hours ago @palmerit I agree. I definitely learned a lot from my attempts in which I will apply going forward. I think what I found hard on that project was the cutting of the planks I could not get it correct at all and I think it is well beyond my skill level at this point of time. I am really looking forward to this project that is more at my skill level.
