davec Posted December 29, 2017 Share #121 Posted December 29, 2017 Ryland - Looking forward to seeing your progress. I used Dave's filed down nail technique on the Hannah windlass - worked well. Best wishes for the New Year.

Ryland Craze Posted January 2, 2018 Author Share #122 Posted January 2, 2018 Thanks Chuck, Steve, B.E, John and Dave for your words of encouragement. I also appreciate the “Likes” and those that have looked in on my build log. I hope everyone has a Happy New Year and I look forward to finishing this model in the near future. Over the past year, I have added the printed friezes and the molding strip. I still need to paint the edge of the cap rail and molding strip white, but will wait till I am almost finished handling the model. I painted the waterline using Badger White and was dissatisfied with the color. The white had a grey hue to it and I did not like it, so I painted over it using Model Master Acrylic flat white. I am real happy with this color as it looks good with the white in the printed friezes. I brushed the paint using Chuck’s technique of using water thin coats of paint. Here is a stem view showing where the printed friezes meet at the stem. I used Model Master Enamel Dark Sea Blue to paint the forward edge of the stem. It was almost a perfect match for the printed friezes. Here is a photo of the stern transom with the painted frieze. I first painted the transom flat white. Then I cut out the printed frieze. I did not use the printed white border since I had painted my transom white. I glued it onto the transom using slightly diluted white glue. I also have made the oars and the main mast and have started on the rudder. I have a little work to do on the interior and then I will move on to the metal work. Thanks again for your support and I look forward to posting my progress. rafine, MEDDO, GrandpaPhil and 14 others 16 1 Quote Ryland Member - Hampton Roads Ship Model Society - Ship Model Society of New Jersey - Nautical Research Guild Current Build - Armed Virginia Sloop, 18th Century Longboat Completed Build - Medway Longboat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yvesvidal Posted October 18, 2021 Share #126 Posted October 18, 2021 That is a gorgeous boat Ryland. I just got the same kit from Model Shipways and plan to place it on the deck of the Bellona, if I ever get there one day....

Ryland Craze Posted October 18, 2021 Author Share #127 Posted October 18, 2021 Thanks everyone for your comments. I put this build on hold while I was building my Medway Longboat and some other projects. I agree that it is time to get back to work on this model. We have a couple of members of my club that are building this kit, so I plan on joining them as I am a little further along in my build. It will be nice to see this kit finished.
