HMS ENTERPRISE by Keith 1:48 scale. New Kit from M.D.

[Keef]

ive tappered the bottom of the deadwood to 3mm added the G parts and tapered to 4mm and its too narrow for the Ster
n post

Tearing my hair out
Cut the inner deadwood to 3 mm then added G parts and cut down to 4mm
WHY
if we are not quite correctly trimming the stern post Have i cut too much off (AGAIN)
Stern post is not attached but as you can see with the 3mm (and 4mm) it m/looks to much
But not enough higher up
I made sure the bottom was 3mm

It looks like the taper is slightly wrong on parts G1-8, there needs to be more taken from the top on both sides, so that the top is the same thickness as A-13. The deadwood assembly is centred widthwise onto A-13

Hello Richard, this build as far as I can tell is Keiths from Spain whom I was complementing, however I am glad you are encouraged as well.
