Spanish Longboat of 1752 (Falúa) [COMPLETED BUILD]

[Angel60]

Current build, this boat was used by the admiral and used adorned and provided with an awning on the stern leg. This is a model designed by Isidro Rivera, who is currently finishing the design of a 64-gun Spanish ship. This would be the boat.
The prepared mold


Placed frames. And keel, stem and stern


















And so we go

Very interesting jig you used for the frames - it is looking very good

I've seen this falúa before ... Greetings. In this site the photos of the falúa are seen better.

 

[Angel60]

Thank you very much, partly I owe you, thanks to your advice and for being in a group of fantastic modellers

 

[Uwek]

Many thanks for showing the jig and the preparation of it - very good idea with the false frames at the location of the final ones!
And also the nice add on with the intarsien star at the floor.

Pretty model, and a nice presentation of the building process and jig.

Angel, I applaud you and your craftsmanship! Thank you for sharing your work with us. What is your next project, if you don't mind?

 

[Angel60]

Thanks Norway and Jim, now I am with the monograph of La Belle, by Ancre, but I think this time I've put on a challenge too big, but I'll try.

Best Regards!

Hi Angel. Challenges cannot be too big, that's why they are challenges. Hey, why not to open a build log? I think we already have one build log started by Oliver https://shipsofscale.com/sosforums/...plan-by-jean-boudriot-myself.3009/#post-55329

Best Regards!

Well done!
Your model is looking very good - congratulations for the completion of this model.

Thank you, in fact I have been working at La Belle since November, but it is progressing slowly. It's a long-term project, no doubt. An image
