HMS GRANADO - full hull - POF kit by CAF in 1:48 - by Uwe

Hallo my friends,
many thanks for your replies with the comments and suggestions - I have to consider these ideas especially for the one wall which will be close to the carrick bitt pin..... still I have some time to think about it

I added a little bit of the "iron"-works on the doors - the walls are still only dry fitted - but in the meantime the wood is treated with CLOU

and I realized, that the second bitt pin needs a notch through the deck planking

Many Thanks for your interest in my log ....... to be continued .....

Good afternoon Uwek. Your work is brilliant. Some prison cells up front I see… ROTF . I don’t know if it will “grow” on you, however as you build more the effect of the bulkheads and cabin walls above the cut is becoming effective….My humble opinion. Cheers Grant

Many Thanks to all for your comments, all the likes and the high interest in visiting my building log - highly appreciated and a big motivation

after the preparation of the walls of the fore platform, I jumped "backwards" to aft and worked some hours on the so called "after platform"

IMG_4308.jpg

IMG_4309.jpg IMG_4310.jpg

It was already 1 1/2 years ago, in September 2022, when I was preparring already the first elements - now step by step I have to adjust and finalize them

I recongnized that at this time the "fore bulkhead of the lower rooms" (#20) was not really fitting the ciurvature of the iinner planking, so I added one more layer

IMG_4318.jpg

now these vertical planks are long enough to reshape the curve

IMG_4319.jpg

IMG_4320.jpg

IMG_4322.jpg

IMG_4323.jpg

much better than before

IMG_4324.jpg

nobody will see thes walls in the hold ..... but

No one will see the walls in the hold, but the man who built that beautiful ship will know! Fantastic work and skill.

Question, when you assembled the frames I noticed that you removed the laser char before mating the parts. Did you make sure when the frames were complete that the frame matched the provided frame drawing exactly?
