Chinese fishing ship

Hi, friends!
My name Vladimir, I am from Ukraine.
A few years ago I create models of Russian destroyers - Kit and Bezshumny, that have been published in Dom Bumagi publishing. I hope, you know this models.
After that I have had some problems with family, and three years I am not engaged in the ship modeling.

Finally, I decided to start modeling the ships again. This is my first attempt after a long pause.

My English is not good enough. Correct me if possible.

Wecome Vladimir.
Don't worry about your English.
Hope to see your work here (with a lot of pictures)
I like (old) Chinees boats.(I have a Chinese girlfriend)
Good luck in every thing you do.

Thanks for greeting.
Yes, this type of fishing vessel did not change over two hundred years. Main problem - еру lack of close-up photos. Another words - we have many good photos of this vessels, but few photos of rigging and desk.

A friend was working on a similar boat six months ago, and we ran into the same problem on close-up photos. Good luck with that. Maybe one of the members here knows of a source for the photos that you want.

I found this years ago on the follow site
Ãðå÷åñêàÿ òðèåðà

This an Russian museum site

This is a Chinese "jonk" I think is not use for fishing?
See the picture.

I see.
As I know, those pictures is a scan of page from "Young Technician" magazine, have published in USSR from 1930s to 1990s.
Unfortunately, this model does not have serious advantages and have presented fantasy ship for young ship-modelers...

Thanks!

The most difficult question for me now is mounting sheets and other ropes on the desk. All photo didn't show this parts of rigging. Was there fill (уток) or bitt or China's special item?

**lepercan** · #9 07-11-2012, 09:20 AM

From what I remember, I saw full bitts, half-bitts and just two pegs driven in to hold the lines. This was in Vietnam in the late 60's and they had access to modern examples of rigging.
