Russian sailing-screw frigate "Oleg" 1860.Scale 1:100

[Mr.Deep]

Small updates in the building. I pasted brass reinforcements on the rods. I immediately glued the steering wheel hinges. I tried to install the upper halves of the covers of the cannon ports with bindings.And most importantly, he installed the nasal figure of the Russian double-headed eagle.

 

[Mr.Deep]

Well, as promised, I made brackets for trunnions on the carriages, and wedges for the wingard. And I couldn't resist installing all the guns on the deck.Because of the small scale, I did not do the strapping of the carriages.

 

[Mr.Deep]

I'm taking care of the crew's bunks. I'm rolling the rolls. I cut it off and put it in the boxes.

I learnt, that the hammocks on russian ships were installed vertical and not diagonal, like often visible on english ships
Will you install some rings or ropes around each hammock? this would make them even more realistic?

Yes, I will also tie them with a couple of lengths of rope. So far, I'm just swinging and trying it on. We need 300-plus mattresses.
