Saturday, July 15th, 2017The hull practically finished. Now, only minor details are missing, and a final black paint coat on the outside.
Next planned activity: building the oars. My starting point is a nice walnut stick 7 x 7 mm. I'm thinking about the right procedure to make them.

Monday, July 24th, 2017Important NoticeToday I successfully (at least I believe) recovered all the images of this topic, so from now on all they are well visible as before the well known Photobucket Incident  . It was a hard work, but should be complete. I've an important favour to ask you: can you try to review the whole topic in order to check if all the images are really visible ? During my work I discovered some issue related with cloud storage permissions and I want to be sure everything is REALLY ok. I have now to recover other topics affected by the same problem and I'd prefer to be sure the method I selected is working well in every situation. Thank you in advance for your cooperation. Jack.Aubrey PS: to avoid confusion on this log, please report back to me only via private message, thanks again.

Friday, July 28, 2017These days I've done a lot of work on this model, but unfortunately I don't have adequate pictures to show. So I just show these three images where you can see the original support provided with the kit.
Anyway I have a somewhat different kind of presentation in my mind . . I will explain it as soon as possible. So I'll meet you soon. Regards, Jack.

Saturday 29 July 2017I started some tasks for sailing equipment.
Let's begin with the mast, wedged in the keelson and embedded in a half-rounded niche of a seat. Here, of course, it's just positioned. Then we have the boom that will house the jib.01 20170729_114432.jpg  02 20170729_114444.jpg  03 20170729_114423.jpg  Here, instead, the antenna for the triangular sail. This boat features two types of triangular sail, one high and one lower. Because of the height of the display case, I chose the sailing with the lowest antenna. It was a tough choice but I think it's necessary. 04 20170729_114829.jpg  And now let's come to the showcase basement of our model. Although the support provided with the kit is nice and original, I had in mind a kind of presentation like the image 08 20160924_110111.jpg, in my opinion very realistic. Then the base of the case is ready to contain this kind of bed made of stones/sand.
With this in mind, I asked my daughter, Silvia, who went on holiday to Elba Island to "steal" (I remember that it is not allowed by law) sand and gravel from a couple of Elba beaches . . Now the stolen material has to come in my hands.
For now I release some images of the showcase base . .05 20170729_114331.jpg  06 20170729_114337.jpg  07 20170729_114342.jpg  08 20160924_110111.jpg  Regards, Jack.

Thursday, August 3rd, 2017I'm working on many small details with little to show individually: rudder hinges, mast support, crates for fishes, painting of the "falke" sides, etc.
The only things worthy to be seen at the moment are the outside paintwork, now black and the crates for the fish, to which I am still working.
This is the prototype: measurements mm 30 x 20 x 15.01 20170803_112657.jpg  Below the hull with the "falke" painted in black . . 02 20170803_103257.jpg  03 20170803_103303.jpg  04 20170803_103310-EFFECTS.jpg
