Gokstad Ship (scratch, 1:75)

Hello Friends,

I'm starting a new small project - Viking Ship found at the Gokstad, Vestfold, Norway. The ship was buried around 900 AD and excavated in 1880. There are many internet pages about this ship, many replicas have been built and many models have been made, so I'm not going to write about her history.
For those who are interested in all the details Nicolay Nicolaysen's book written in 1882 can be found there (Langskibet Fra Gokstad Ved Sandefjord - GDZ).

I did some experiments with the model and was very curious, if it would work:

1. Frame edges are serrated according to the course of the boards
2. No additional layers - planks go directly on the frames.

So far everything is OK...

Best
Tomek
