westwood Posted Monday at 08:31 PM Author #32 Posted Monday at 08:31 PM Hi guys, just a little update again because there was less time to build than I would have liked... I continued framing the gunports. All 4 longitudinal pieces have been installed. Only on the aft three bulkheads isn't glued in yet. I'll finish that after framing the stern. And here are some pictures of the stern. First I shaped and glued The upper wing transom. Then the four shorter inner frames and the two outer frames. Finally the horizontals, I heat formed those to the curve just like upper wing transom to make them fit nicely into the slots of the frames and jig. Now the QG framing and balcony will be next Trussben, Rustyj, gjdale and 8 others 11 Dusan Currently building: HMS Portland 1770 by westwood - 1:48 HMS Winchelsea 1764 by westwood - 1:48 Revenge 1577 - by westwood - 1:64 In preparation: Fourth-rate ship 1681 - 1:48
