Hello Kortes!
Fine, I like it. I am glad that there are followers of my ideas
For those who are interested http://sailmodel.ho.ua/present/pres_e.htm

Yes, very interesting work. Super strong structure and a unique method of planking...something I've never seen before.

Very strong hull this way indeed. The first two layers are attached with staples. The final layer of planking will be attached how ?

It will be glued using wood glue.

Yes, Igor, I learned a lot from you. I consider you one of my teachers by correspondence. Your privateer and galleon are some of my favorite works. They can be viewed endlessly. With deep respect

 

[Kortes]

The stern. I had to remake it two times.

 

[Tony P]

It will be glued using wood glue.

Right ok. I like Igor's method with the frames.

 

[Kortes]

Preliminary deck plating.

 

[Kortes]

I've adjusted the height of the side of the ship.

 

[Kortes]

Preliminary markup.

 

[Kortes]

I bought a painted hornbeam. Now I will have a stock.

 

[Kortes]

Completed the inset of gun ports. Although I had to remake it afterwards. But everything is fixable, the strength of the case allows to remake it.

 

[Kortes]

Performed inset rowing ports

 

[Uwek]

Very good progress

 

[Kortes]

Preliminary works before decking

Greetings , my dear Colleagues. I've decided to show my work on brig. I have been thinking on building this shipper quite some time. I've found it on the web site https://www.modelships.de/Favori and wanted to have one. This is a sistership Le Cygne. I'm building it using the blueprints of the last one because they are practically twins. The scale is М 1: 55 , I've chosen this scale so the ship would fit in the apartment. Although I'm not completely sure that I would be able to build such a small one. I'm planning on using pear tree and painted hornbeam. I will use the excellent works of others Masters

Hallo @Kortes
we wish you all the BEST and a HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Enjoy your day

 

[Jimsky]

Happy Birthday, Sanya!!! Many more happy and healthy years in life ahead!

 

[Kortes]

Thank you, my dear friends, for such warm words.
My best regards, Alexander

Deck planking. I have made it in several versions. I'm showing the final one.

Looks real good. What type of wood did you use?
