garyshipwright Posted September 29, 2022 #1414 Posted September 29, 2022 Looking good Alan. Your making good head way sir. That stern is a hand full that's for sure and is a heck of a lot of work. mtaylor and AON 1 1 Quote HMS Montague/Alfred class by Gary B 74 gun ship built in 1779
AON Posted September 29, 2022 Author #1415 Posted September 29, 2022 Thank you Gary. I thought I understood it when I drew in 2016. Six years later it seems I had to almost figure it all out again, even with my drawing, and those few by others. Now that I am half way through the side quarter framing it seems easy enough. druxey and mtaylor 2 Quote Alan O'Neill "only dead fish go with the flow" Ongoing Build (31 Dec 2013) - HMS BELLEROPHON (1786), POF scratch build, scale 1:64, 74 gun 3rd rate Man of War, Arrogant Class Member of the Model Shipwrights of Niagara, Niagara Region, Ontario, Canada (2016), and the Nautical Research Guild (since 2014) Associate member of the Nautical Research and Model Ship Society (2021) Offshore member of The Society of Model Shipwrights (2021)
druxey Posted September 29, 2022 #1416 Posted September 29, 2022 "...seems easy enough." Just wait a bit before you make such a rash statement, Alan! The other counter timbers have to converge just so, or the stern lights won't come out nice and evenly. But, so far, so good! mtaylor 1 Quote Be sure to sign up for an epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series http://trafalgar.tv
AON Posted September 29, 2022 Author #1417 Posted September 29, 2022 Yup. I has deleted my last paragraph to Gary about closing up the stern because I was afraid I was getting ahead of myself.

garyshipwright Posted September 30, 2022 #1418 Posted September 30, 2022 Alan there is a good article by John Franklin in Model ship Wright, HMS Egmont(74) 1768 41/4 and 42/29 that will give you some help on building your stern. I used his article's and David Anscherl such as Drawing Techniques for the Modeller and his 64 gun ship Polyphemus. If you don't have them let me know and I will copy them and send them to you. They always had such wonderful article's it a shame they stop producing them. Gary mtaylor 1 Quote HMS Montague/Alfred class by Gary B 74 gun ship built in 1779
AON Posted September 30, 2022 Author #1419 Posted September 30, 2022 I have issue 42 (part 2) but not issue 41 (part 1). Other than a couple photos it doesn't seem to offer much guidance for the side quarter frames. Am I wrong? mtaylor 1 Quote Alan O'Neill "only dead fish go with the flow" Ongoing Build (31 Dec 2013) - HMS BELLEROPHON (1786), POF scratch build, scale 1:64, 74 gun 3rd rate Man of War, Arrogant Class Member of the Model Shipwrights of Niagara, Niagara Region, Ontario, Canada (2016), and the Nautical Research Guild (since 2014) Associate member of the Nautical Research and Model Ship Society (2021) Offshore member of The Society of Model Shipwrights (2021)

AON Posted October 1, 2022 Author #1421 Posted October 1, 2022 Gary I've found the nine part series of Traditional Wooden Shipbuilding by David White to be very informative but even he doesn't seem to spend much time on the stern and quarter galleries. garyshipwright and mtaylor 2 Quote Alan O'Neill "only dead fish go with the flow" Ongoing Build (31 Dec 2013) - HMS BELLEROPHON (1786), POF scratch build, scale 1:64, 74 gun 3rd rate Man of War, Arrogant Class Member of the Model Shipwrights of Niagara, Niagara Region, Ontario, Canada (2016), and the Nautical Research Guild (since 2014) Associate member of the Nautical Research and Model Ship Society (2021) Offshore member of The Society of Model Shipwrights (2021)
garyshipwright Posted October 1, 2022 #1422 Posted October 1, 2022 (edited) Hi Alan. I sought of got hung up with my printer. Tried to scan the picture in to the computer but kept wanting a password. O well. I took a photo of the side and aft view which may help. He does go in to more info then any thing else I found. Let me know what you think of his article.

garyshipwright Posted October 1, 2022 #1423 Posted October 1, 2022 I also like David White articles Traditional Wooden Shipbuilding, but he didn't finished them. I believe the last article seem's to be missing, at least I believe it is. Those articles in Model Ship Wright opened up my eyes to what really was. mtaylor, AON, albert and 1 other 4 Quote HMS Montague/Alfred class by Gary B 74 gun ship built in 1779

garyshipwright Posted October 2, 2022 #1429 Posted October 2, 2022 (edited) Sorry about that, I had a brain fart. Model Shipwright, Issues 41, September 1982, HMS Egmont, part 1, 74(1768) starts at page 4 and run's to page 13, author is John Franklin. Hope that help good sir.

AON Posted October 2, 2022 Author #1430 Posted October 2, 2022 That is why I cannot find it. I do no have issue 41! Could you possibly PM me that complete article so I can add it to my collection. I originally was given a stack of different magazines and I scanned the articles that related to my build and filed them on the computer for future reference. Then I gave the magazines away to our local club members. Issue 41 was not in the stack. Your comment about David's drawing Techniques article was not lost on me. I only have part 1. Are there others and do they discuss the stern? mtaylor 1 Quote Alan O'Neill "only dead fish go with the flow" Ongoing Build (31 Dec 2013) - HMS BELLEROPHON (1786), POF scratch build, scale 1:64, 74 gun 3rd rate Man of War, Arrogant Class Member of the Model Shipwrights of Niagara, Niagara Region, Ontario, Canada (2016), and the Nautical Research Guild (since 2014) Associate member of the Nautical Research and Model Ship Society (2021) Offshore member of The Society of Model Shipwrights (2021)
garyshipwright Posted October 2, 2022 #1431 Posted October 2, 2022 I have to look and see if I can find any more of David's drawing techniques article. I think there is one more and will take a look. Here is the start of 41 and I also found the conclusion of John's articles which I have also inclosed. fake johnbull, mtaylor and AON 2 1 Quote HMS Montague/Alfred class by Gary B 74 gun ship built in 1779

garyshipwright Posted October 2, 2022 #1434 Posted October 2, 2022 (edited) There is a 2 part to David's Drawing Techniques for the modeler but doesn't really have any thing really on the stern other then correcting the stern tilt so you can make the parts for the ship the right length. If you want it let me know and will add it. Also if you want I can delete some of the Franklin stuff so it doesn't clutter up your log once you have down loaded them unless other's want this to.

Kris Avonts Posted October 2, 2022 #1435 Posted October 2, 2022 Hi Alan, I once scanned all the articles written by David White and published in the Model Shipwright magazine. They are an invaluable treasure for information on 18th century shipbuilding. The scans are bundled into a pdf document and I printed it out to have it on my workbench. See the next 2 pictures that show the result. If you are interested in the pdf, here is a link where you can download it: https://we.tl/t-kKyChhdXqo This document is made and intended strictly for personal use. I hope you can find good information in it. Best regards, Kris mtaylor, bruce d, fake johnbull and 5 others 4 3 1 Quote
