ccoyle Posted May 20, 2014 Share #2 Posted May 20, 2014 Pre-cut planking - now there is something you don't see every day in a kit like this. Looks like it is coming together quite nicely. riverboat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littlebob Posted May 20, 2014 Share #3 Posted May 20, 2014 That is a nice kit, I to have never seen pre cut planks, it does appear to go together pretty nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdogg Posted May 22, 2014 Share #7 Posted May 22, 2014 I like the pre cut planks! It would be cool if one of the companies in the US did this or at least provided plans for the planks. Looks good! riverboat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergey Posted May 23, 2014 Author Share #8 Posted May 23, 2014 (edited) Plywood (high quality) is used till this stage (hull internal structure, deck base, first layer of planking): Further no any plywood.

Sergey Posted May 23, 2014 Author Share #9 Posted May 23, 2014 SpyGlass, you can buy this kit from here or here. The first seller is quite flexible and responsive for online purchases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergey Posted May 23, 2014 Author Share #10 Posted May 23, 2014 (edited) quicker? Ha. You simply cut parts off the base, drop them into empty box, shake and oops - ready hull on the exit. p.s. pay attention to another nice kit from this maker. One day i will drop here short overview of building process. p.p.s. I do not do any advertisement and have no any connection with the maker. Just share personal experience of newbie shipbuilder.

The Sailor Posted May 24, 2014 Share #11 Posted May 24, 2014 That's a very interesting kit and a good start. Nice work Sergey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vivian Galad Posted May 24, 2014 Share #12 Posted May 24, 2014 Prikrosno, Sergey! I searched for some older russian kits on the link you provided (I´m a bit obsessed with medieval ships from all around the world) but to no avail. Your building is coming very nicely done. Keep it up and bring us new pictures. Paka! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergey Posted May 25, 2014 Author Share #13 Posted May 25, 2014 Thanks, guys and girls. Some progress - pumps: schooner, riverboat, Griffon and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corey Posted November 23, 2015 Share #14 Posted November 23, 2015 Sergey, Nicely done! What you've done so far looks really good. I have the same kit but I haven't started building it yet. Thanks for all the great pictures. I hope you don't mind if I use your log as a resource when I start my build. Corey mtaylor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolley Roger Posted November 24, 2015 Share #15 Posted November 24, 2015 Hi Sergey, Fantastic looking kit! Can you tell us more about the types of wood used for the hull and deck, etc? It looks like good quality. I did a quick search on the web and found this site that offer the kit for sale: http://hobbyterra.com/index.php?cPath=89&page=1 They accept Paypal and offer free shipping. Wouldn't mind one of these for Christmas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergey Posted September 5, 2019 Author Share #18 Posted September 5, 2019 good day, people I had abandoned the thread, as well as shipbuild itself. It was not easy time for me, a lot of my ongoing projects were stopped, except motorcycles (well, it is another story and different passion). So now i am recovering my modelling hobby activity, and this ship is on plans to continue and to finish. The sooner the better, too many other tasty things are resting on the shelf. However, i am now faraway from my workdesk, having bigger projects to work on (scale 1:1) - not building but maintaining. I do hope that on my return i will continue this thread. lmagna 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
