Schooner Albatross from Constructo [COMPLETED BUILD]

[Alexander74]

Hello everyone. Seven days ago, I was going on vacation and covered the hull with oil. I use tung oil. Before coating with oil, immediately after applying the oil and after seven days

Case in the same sequence, before, at the time of application and after 7 days

He made the shrouds of the huffers on the foremast. The technology is the same as with the shackles of the yufers. I take off the dimensions, make templates, bend the wire according to them, and then solder and blacken. I tried to get closer to the version from the book

Hi Sasha,
They look much better then those from the book with the twister wires.
Regards, Peter

Wow. Beautiful Sasha!

Саня, Безусловно, они качественней тех что в наборе, без сомнения. Но мне кажется, может ракурс фото такой, что нижняя пластина Вант-путенса немного широковата и коротковата для этого масштаба. Может это мне кажется? Что скажешь?

Sasha, Of course, they are a much better quality than those in the kit, no doubt. But it seems to me, perhaps that the angle of the photo may be such, that the lower plate of the Chainplates is a bit wide and short for this scale. Maybe it just seems to me? What do you think?

 

[Daniel20]

Wow!!! The the rich tones of the wood are stunning. Your craftsmanship is outstanding Sasha.

Саша, Конечно, они намного лучшего качества, чем те, что в комплекте, несомненно. Но мне кажется, может быть, угол наклона фото может быть таким, что нижняя пластина цепных пластин для этого масштаба шире и короче. Может мне это просто кажется? Как вы думаете?

Дима, добрый день. Что касается нижних пластин, то подумаю. Скорее всего ты прав и их нужно переделать. Я рассудил, что они уже спускались ниже ватерлинии, и я не уверен, что это правильно. Я подумаю об этом.

 

[Alexander74]

Спасибо, Пол и Даниэль

 

[Alexander74]

Добрый день всем вашим друзьям-моделям. Еще заменил нижние пластины на вант-путенс. Стало вот так.

Этот вариант, безусловно, лучше, чем был вначале. Спасибо, Дима, за подсказку.


В процессе работы закладываются ванты грот-мачты. Нижних пластин пока не хватает, но для правильного крепления всех вантов нужна мачта. Вант-путены должны совпадать с ванной. За некоторыми исключениями, когда этим препятствуют порты пистолета.

Good day to all modelers. I haven't shown anything for a long time, but that doesn't mean I've been idle. Construction of the schooner continues. I decided to fix the gun carriages a little. The set offers this kind of ugliness



I decided to improve the carriages a little. I didn't make many changes, because this build is still budget-friendly. We agreed with the customer to build just from the kit, but I am so drawn to redo something. How it turned out, I can imagine in your opinion.

 

[Alexander74]

I looked at these guns on the deck and decided to add more trousers.

 

[Alexander74]

For tonight, the model looks like this. The work on the deck is complete. I started rigging. I started by tying up the bowsprit and the uthlegar.

 

[Jimsky]

Sasha, you made the best out of it. The gun looks much better with the quality breeching line.

Thank you, Dima

Installed a waterway on the deck.View attachment 231293

I am wondering if sails were included? I had a pilot boat kit from about 1970 with sails that were excellently done, reefing lines and all sewn in which required nothing more than bending them on and shaping when set.

Very nicely built and finished hull and deck at this stage. Rich (PT-2)

Nice clean neat detail Sasha. I can only hope to reach your skill level some day.
