Garward Posted April 12, 2014 Share #1 Posted April 12, 2014 (edited) This project represents the exposition consisting of three models of a bronze 24-pound gun of Le Fleuron 1729, M 1:24. Idea of the project - to show model options in development - from gun model to battle station: - The gun located on a fragment of the deck (No. 1); - The gun located on a fragment of the deck with a board and some artillery accessories (No. 2); - Battle station including a gun with roofing felts and accessories to firing, fragments of two decks, a board fragment with gun port and a cover (No. 3). In an exposition I used c little changes two constructed before the http://modelshipworld.com/index.php?/topic/454-24-pdr-bronze-gun-le-fleuron-1729-by-garward-m-124/ http://modelshipworld.com/index.php?/topic/1666-24-pdr-bronze-gun-le-fleuron-1729-by-garward-m-124-second-version/ and also I constructed new model of the gun (No. 1) located on a fragment of the deck. Each of models is established on own support, in an exposition of model are united by the general stand. I began this project with http://modelshipworld.com/index.php?/topic/1666-24-pdr-bronze-gun-le-fleuron-1729-by-garward-m-124-second-version/ -I added the electrified lamp. The lamp is made according to obtained at French on the Arsenal drawings (see poses. 2 on the drawing) that on the scale of M 1:24 gives diameter of cylindrical part of a lamp of 8 mm and height of 11 mm. As a prototype the similar lamp of production of the French modeller of Alain Fosse served. The case and cover of a lamp are made of a brass bar, an insert with an opening under a light-emitting diode - from yellow plexiglas, food elements (2 AAA batteries) are established under a deck flooring, contacts for connection of a lamp are inserted into a seam between levels of a deck flooring.
