HMS Royal William 1719 1:55 by OlegM

[OlegM]

I planked the gundeck level in a simplified way. No detailing planned

 

[OlegM]

Also did the hoops for the guns. Will be able to insert the guns through the ports and lower the hoops

 

[Tony P]

Great work.

 

[OlegM]

Great work.

Thank you!

 

[OlegM]

I installed the carriages, covered the deck with oil, inserted the nominal "beams" of th middledeck and glued in the middledeck plywood foundation

 

[OlegM]

I also made the cheeks. These were veeery difficult parts to do, especially the boxwood moldings. The result is so-so...

Excellent work.

 

[Uwek]

Very good progress my friend - many thanks for showing us your work and solutions of simplifications (which are not visible later on)
Very good work and a pleasure to follow your log

 

[OlegM]

In the very same manner I finished the middledeck

 

[OlegM]

And I started doing the hinges.
I did the drawings and ordered them from a third party. Now I just bend the tip insert the pin and sold them together.





The second part I do myself. Here is the process, I think it's clear from the photos:

 

[OlegM]

First of all I did those that are on the beakhead:



Then at the stern:



And the first closed port on the middledeck:

 

[OlegM]

Also note how I corrected a mistake on the head and cheeks (left is, right - was):

Wow, looks amazing

 

[DARIVS ARCHITECTVS]

How in the world did I miss following this incredibly sophisticated build?

 

[Uwek]

Your hinges are looking very good - and a clever idea with your mass-production

 

[OlegM]

By Christmas I installed all the lids for gundeck and middledeck. The tackles will be installed much much later

 

[Hubac’s Historian]

A true Christmas pleasure to see photos of your build! Your hinges are particularly finely worked!

I can see that you have invested many hours of patient work to bring your large RC model to such a wonderful state. I hope that it continues as well in 2022. Rich (PT-2)
