BigGrin Hi all I have been working on this project since the first lockdown as something to do. I copied the bulkheads from the corel vasa as looking at the Dutchman it's very similar to the Vasa apart from the forecastle and the deck plan . So I have put larger decks on and changed the bow to look like the F/Dutchman. Sorry I haven't got any pictures of the first part of the build. As I'm not very good at carving I have used modelling clay for the scary faces and the weird stuff on the stern I think they look ok still lots to do Cool . It's nice to build something that's total fantasy so I don't have to worry about historical accuracy and I can do whatever I like 😉.Cheers for looking
Martyn
As this is a scratch build the price so far £4.99 for the 2mm ply and £4.00 for the clay all the rest free from bits and pieces from other builds Cool

Jeepers... VERY spooky. Great work.
Strangely enough I wrote an Indiana Jones novel all about the Flying Dutchman. The ship is a great bit of history worth looking into.Cool

Fantastic stuff ,scratch building at its best. Nice to see your work back on here again
Man he took his time in the sun
Had a dream to understand
A single grain of sand
He gave birth to poetry

Nice to see your latest updates. You could always produce something a bit special and this one sits in the same category.

Loving the sculpted details, some real skills to be able to do that.

Hoping you share some more with us as its looking so good at this point.

Tony
Happy Modelling

BigGrin thanks for your feedback guys Cool. A bit more done on the FD .
I have finished the stern galleries and the scary faces on the Hull. Next job making it look old and battered so I have put some barnacles and clam thingys on the sides and smashed some holes in the planking. I need to find a way of putting some smaller barnacles on the lower hull Confused
Thanks for looking
Martyn

BigGrin Thanks for the comments guys Cool
A little bit more done on the FD.
I've been working on the grimreper figure head.
I tried lots of different ways to do it. The modeling clay was to brittle, I tried wire ribs but they looked rubbish so I went out and got some milliput modeling putty and hay presto ribs that looked good Cool
Next job painting and weathering Cool
Catch you next time
Martyn

Hi Martyn,
I saw this when you first posted the build and I have to say you are doing a great job.
Nice to let your imagination run for a while too, with nobody to say “That’s not accurate”
Well done.
