Very very neat and tidy work. Great great model, you should be proud! ausgezeichnet! thank you very much for your nice words. And, yes, I am very proud of my model and what I did so far. But I know all the mistakes and want to make it better at the next model 🙂 Does anyone know if and when Chris Watton brings his Victory model kit on the market? Quote HMS Victory by Heinz746

Heinz6672 Posted December 11, 2018 Author #217 Posted December 11, 2018 Robert, Wallace, Boyd and Kevin! I am touched, deeply moved and honored by your great compliments. Thank you so much !!! @Wallace: I've learned so much from this forum myself that I'm happy and proud when others can learn something from my post. @Boyd: You're right. I will now proceed stubbornly according to plan and look at every detail first, what I find in my books and - not least - in the forum with the other model makers to do so. @ Kevin: I hope that I can fascinate you with my work even longer :-))) But as you can see here: Sometimes I had some help with building my model. But mostly they were busy with themselves 🙂 mort stoll, Landlubber Mike, gieb8688 and 3 others 6 Quote HMS Victory by Heinz746
Heinz6672 Posted February 10, 2019 Author #218 Posted February 10, 2019 Time for a new update. In the meantime, my Victory has turned 6 years old. No idea when she finally grew up. I started with the foremast now. As always, I only use my own walnut wood. It's very nice, but hard to work with, because it's very hard. This makes it very tedious and exhausting. In addition, I do not suggest the metal bands around the mast with an adhesive strip and paint, but they made of wood. That also means a lot of filing and sanding. As you can see, I already started with the Mastheat. For the small wooden slats I needed new wood, which I had to wait a few days for. Of course, everything is just plugged together and not yet glued. I hope I do not overlook important steps. I look regularly in my books and here in the forum. Thanks to Gil and Kevin and the others for the many great pictures, where I can orient myself! All in all I am not as far as I would like to be. Everything takes a long time. And in addition I have rebuilt something in my cellar. I got a large wooden table (2 x 1 meter) and cleared out the old workbenches and kitchen cabinets. That stole me a weekend :-). I wish a nice Sunday! -Heinz- Bill Morrison, gieb8688, Katsumoto and 9 others 12 Quote HMS Victory by Heinz746

Heinz6672 Posted January 19, 2020 Author #224 Posted January 19, 2020 It is almost 1 year ago that I posted something new about my victory. Time for an update! The foremast is now finished. I had already set the shrouds when I came across a dealer on the Internet that offers self-twisted ropes. I immediately decided to buy it and make the rigging on my model anew. Several hours of work for the garbage can ... but it was worth it, wasn't it? BenD, cristikc, davec and 3 others 6 Quote HMS Victory by Heinz746

I trim most parts to old with the black wood paste. And then I paint the wood with a matt wood varnish. I am really glad you like the look. 🙂 philly777 and teloo 2 Quote HMS Victory by Heinz746
