Hi all,

Finally got some photos on here, this is my first ever attempt at a wooden model which i am finding quite difficult, the instructions are not very easy to follow, especially when you don't know the nautical terminology, don't know how i'm going to get the canons etc into position in between the decks, i'll post some more photos when i eventually finish it.





And now some photos of my new project. Admin are sending me a new canon because of there mistake with the tapered end, so hopefully my second attempt will be better, i wished i had waited until i veiwed some of the superb efforts by you more experienced modellers on this forum, i'll be more patient in future. I think i'll buy part 3 again so i can have another go at the carronade.















The missus ain't to please with my bits all over her kitchen & dinning table

Bye for now Ferret

ferrett, was a revelation I like your enthusiasm it is so infectious,you will be a winner,the improvement your showing will get you far.i'm still redoing the cannons,so don't give up and you will have a model to be proud of.

Sorry put same pic on twice, one should have been this one

Looks great! well done tf you got such a smooth finesh, unlike my doorstep effort

Quite pleased, not too much glue on the inside,now for the next stage.

Cut oar slots and satin varnished one coat, not sure about the finish ? what do you think ?

I think it looks great, I love the way you used 2 widths of plank and the varnish finish looks superb!!!!

It's looking real good mate....can't see anything wrong with that..keep em coming..

Yes,the centre section build looks good.Having seen what the cutaway looks like(not very detailed)I am thinking of getting the cross section instead & putting it in the same display case.

Sorry guys, will post some photos this week, i have been so busy at work, but im half way through planking, way behind but dont want to rush it, i cant believe i have not updated since September.Theres some superb models coming along.

Ferret
