Nordlys scale 1:250

Not sure what math you used to marry the ship's name in italics with the curves of her bow...but its wonderful. She's beautiful.

Your Saturn looked great and this one here is wonderful. Great job on the hull.

I was looking for number 25 and couldn't find it... Not on the sheets and not in the pieces that I already cut out. And yes....I glued it on the wrong place on the ship



Luckily easy to recover





Number 26 is a stair, at the right the stair from the sheet and left a laser cut stair.




Number 25 on his correct place



Cut out the wheelhouse:


And glued together:




The wheelhouse in dry-fit on the ship. Also the bulwark glued on the deck.



Overview so far:

Excellent work Fred, it's great what you've done with the letters.

I have worked on the decks:









And they are finished now:







Now I can start making all the little thing....

The problem at this ship are the railings, lots of them are vertical.
I searched the WWW but couldn't find this in laser cut.
Then I got a message from David Hathaway ( from papershipwright) and he made the railings himself.

He send me the template and I send it to a guy who could laser cut it for me.
And this week the railings arrived




A quick dry-fit on the ship:




This will become great, I like it!!


Meanwhile made a start on the chimney:
