Good start. Congratulations 😊

[@GregWilson635]

Thanks mate, I do enjoy this phase of construction 🚧 😀

[@RogerRamjetman]

Good progress

[@GregWilson635]

Thanks Roger

[@genojoe3176]

Very nice, but in my opinion Artesania Latina should increase the skeleton components from 3mm to at least 4mm. They just seem a but flimsy.

[@GregWilson635]

Totally agree with you. It makes planking more difficult also.

[@andypellatt7862]

A good start its always important to get everything true and square

[@GregWilson635]

Thanks , Exactly right, makes all the difference as you go forward 😀

[@wolfgangzinn]

looks complex, but makes a good impression.

[@GregWilson635]

Very complex , almost over engineered. The Soleil was very similar. Once together though is very solid.

1:56 what I did with my kits is rip a large number of square strips, like 1/4" square, then when I'm gluing the frame together, I shove one of those into the corners on all sides making them 90 deg to the keel section. Depending on the size of your ship, you can go even larger, 1/2" or more if you have the space. I cut long strips, about 3' then cut them to length as I need them.

[@GregWilson635]

Thats a really good idea. I will do that in future , thanks 😊

[@FocusnikTGR]

Is this the new gen set?

[@GregWilson635]

Yes it is

[@g-kip]

Hi Greg, so you've started the New kit, (mine turned up yesterday Occre version, just waiting on a book now, as i believe the stern gallery is incorrect, there should actually be balconies) must say I had a quick peek and impressed with the quality, what scale is your kit?

[@GregWilson635]

Hi mate , it's 1/84 scale. From memory I think this kit has balconies but I could be wrong. The Occre version is a very nice looking kit. I like the Sapelli for the hull. I will look forward to watching you build it.
