mtbediz Posted March 31, 2017 Share #45 Posted March 31, 2017 Hi, does instruction manual suggest that type of lower hull planking? Santa Ana is a very beautiful galleon. In my opinion, if you tapered planks at the bow and made all planks parallel to water line she would look much nicer. I am sorry for criticism.

(i assume this model has one layer of planking) Mustafa Yes and no. I explain, yes the instruction manuel suggested that kind of planking but the Sapelly wood is very hard to cut or bend so i decided to go with the natural curve of the hull. For your second question, yes only one layer of plank. mtdoramike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
le débutant Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share #47 Posted April 12, 2017 Some of those steps were easier than expected. Few more to do before final sanding, wax,and painting. Some parts are missing on the boat for painting purpose, and i am satisfied of the color the wax is giving. Waitoa and mtdoramike 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

le débutant Posted January 21, 2018 Author Share #55 Posted January 21, 2018 (edited) I just finish to build the canon on third floor,intalling the grading, ladders,and parts of the wall.

le débutant Posted February 28, 2018 Author Share #56 Posted February 28, 2018 The story continues. First; the defense as to be removed because the were to high. Second the opening to get access to the ships is not according to the plan but reflect the picture on the following page. Now i started to build the second wall for the fourth deck.

le débutant Posted April 18, 2018 Author Share #59 Posted April 18, 2018 (edited) Today i will give my first advise for this kit. Just build all canon before installing them because some of them will cause some difficulties,the mounts have no hole on, and it is impossible to drill them bad qualities of wood. The hole are for the wheel. Edited April 18, 2018 by le débutant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
