HMB Endeavour by kiwiron - FINISHED - OcCre - 1:54


Recommended Posts

Hi Ron,

An outstanding model. I have never a fan of sails on a static model. But your model has made me rethink this,and,I may have to give sails a try on my Endeavour when the time comes

a little bit after the party finished...

without the doubt outstanding build. one little detail though.

direction of wind would prevent the flags to be in the position you have them on the model. your sails would suggest that these are  under wind. if that is the case, flags should be positioned other way around.

please do not get offended, i simply am being nit-picking here...

 

Pavol stands for Paul, Pablo, Paolo etc. Please do not try to pronounce it, just call me Pav...

Hi Ron,

 

Nice job on the decking. The 4 butt shift pattern and the treenailing looks great :) 

Sorry I'm really new at this. What does the '4 but shift pattern' mean, when laying down the deck. I'm waiting for delivery of my Occre endeavour, so I'm doing a lot of reading in preparation.

 

Thanks

Umberto
