Great model!!! You have done a superb job on this! I love the shape of the wings on the corsairs. Your accuracy and attention to detail really make this model stand out... Great job! :thumb:

Thanks for the nice comments Bulldogowner and Luvecraft... Actually, I'm a girl :wink: I won't be working on the model until this weekend after work (12 hr graveyard shift!) but I hope to get more done. Does anyone have any suggestions for filler and smoothing out the hull? I've heard putty...

planking done The planking is finished! I put 2 layers of planking on the hull and sanded as good as I could between layers without taking too much paper off. I've filled any gaps with liquid paper and sanded again. Soon I'll paint the hull white. So far, the parts to this model fit very well...

Dinghy finished Well the dinghy is finished but needs another coat of sealer which I will apply later. I didn't use the foam on the hull because according to the directions it looks like there is 2 layers so that should take care of any lumps and bumps. We'll see though. If it doesn't work then...

build log for Shipyard HMS Bounty 1/96 scale I will be taking pics of this ship and posting them here but I won't get my camera back til tomorrow. So far, I have been working on the hull. I laminated 2 pieces of #110 together for the main structure of the hull and while that was drying I worked...

Hi, I haven't been to this forum in awhile but came back to check out some peoples sailing ship models. I'm going to build the HMS Bounty and I am wondering if anyone else has built this and can offer any advice... Or a build log would be great! My Polish is not so good, so I'll be relying most...
