To victory and beyond ...

All of it, superb. Where to start? Th capstan weathering...perfect. The boats, perfect. So well done!
 
Hey Daniel,:D

You don't think of anything bad and who do you meet here? It's great that you're here and I'm really pleased.ThumbsupThumbsup

I can't wait to see how you get on, and of course I'm also curious to see what your Victory from 1765 will look like, especially as I want to build it too. I'm currently working on my little dinghy for the Athena. I've already used a few of your parts in the dinghy. Great.

Best regards

Waiting for Godot ...

Since the geometry of the boats is highly complex, the printer has to run at the highest resolution, and that takes time ...

That's why I used the time in between to finish a few other things, or rather to give them a final polish.

All the bitts on the upper deck have now been joined by the bitts on the upper battery deck, which hold all the halyards of the main mast. Big strong things with nice rollers in the base.

Here with the swifel pump in between.

You can already admire them in the open heart of my Vic.


The matching deck beam supports. Cheaper by the dozen. A bit of drybrushing here too to modulate the shape.

Plus the small kit of the riding bitts and what you can be done with it.

And I would like to take this opportunity to out myself again: As much as I like and need high-quality tools, but often nothing beats the basics!

- A sheet of sandpaper on the table and you can make smooth and even strokes when sanding

- Sandpaper stuck to wooden sticks using double-sided tape allows sanding tools to be cut to the exact width of the workpiece using the width of the sticks. Some of the sticks shown here are exactly the width of the gunports of my Constitution.

- Right-angled blocks facilitate sanding at a 90° angle.

And when the paper is blunt, a new one is put on.


And here is the guessing game of what else I have prepared :-)

What a pleasure to meet you here. What have you conjured up again?

I bet it has something to do with an anchor or bilge?

When you said waiting for Godot, I though Gal Gadot was arriving at your house! lolol
I have no idea what that new part is.
