ROYAL CAROLINE 1749/1:40/scratch build
Dear friends,
some months ago I have started a scratch build of HMY Royal Caroline 1749 in a scale 1/40. I will proceed according to plans from the book Anatomy of the ship, which are quite detailed and nicely designed. Other documents and information come from foreign literature, which describes construction, fitting and rigging of ships from this period. Because I wanted to build a realistic model of the RC as possible, I will be grateful for any comments and suggestions, which helped me to achieve that result. I chose Royal Caroline mainly for her sleek lines and beautiful sculptural decoration, and also because finally I will not have to make so many cannons as on the previous models .... One of the most realistic painting of HMY Royal Caroline by John Cleveley The Elder Full report of my work is here: ModelForum • Zobrazit téma - ROYAL CAROLINE 1749/1:40/vlastní projekt

I'll second that!
Fantastic build so far Doris. I just checked out your 15 pages worth of posts on the other forum. Incredible attention to detail. |

Thank you for your words, dear friends! I will try to describe my build here in English. I have some new and improved technologies, so I will share them with you and maybe they will be useful for somebody.
Hull planking - second layer from stripes (I used again 1mm thick card)

Its always a pleasure to watch you work.
And very very instructive and interesting to see all the steps from the beginning. Even at this early stage, she is a beauty. Regards! Mike |
