The anchors were missing in the kit so I ordered some from BlueJacket. I shaped and painted the stocks and added the strapping and bolts.
I decided to display this model on a cradle. So I used my measuring templet to build one.
Completed the long boat
Working on the bow and stern shapeing
Sanding finally done and now to set the keel and rudder placement.
Now that I have finished the hull shaping I pencil out the lay of the second planking.
I also over planked the keel line.
I have started to second plank the hull.
I'm using AOS book to make some changes from the kit.
Working on the stern galleries. bashing the kit and using AOS book to assist in modifications.
Continue to lay second planking to the hull. I painted the wood prior to installation. I will sand smooth and repaint as needed.
Painted then re-sanded hull. Put more wood filler on and sanded.
I continue to lay the last layer of planking
Still working on second layer of planking
Completed the second planking.
