So far I have made a few plastic models of a Revell. In Croatia model of the ship is sold in serial of 100 weekly magazines (a few wooden or brass parts is enclosed in each number). Until now serial reached number 54. I build model over one year now because I must wait each number to arrive at a newspaper kiosk.I apologize for my English if it is not very well. The ship was build in Toscanna (Italy) around 1589-1593.Here is a few pics( taken with cell phone camera because of size-to be smaller) of my build log until now:![]() ![]() ![]() At the end of the summer I done all necessary to start the first layer of planking. ![]() Just started with the first layer of planks: ![]() ![]() ![]() And after completed first layer of planks started making bow(made from pieces of plywood): ![]() The final result before second layer of strips: ![]() Started second layer-right side: ![]() ![]() ![]() And completed the left side: ![]() ![]() Setting strips to the top edge railing: ![]() ![]() ![]() Placement of stern decorations: ![]() ![]() After application the second layer of wood stain colour the model is drying on showcase: ![]() While the model is drying, I started making winches.Here is photo how they imagine it in the journal( I do not like it because there are some plywood visible parts ): ![]() so I started to doi it on my way: ![]() ![]() This is it for now. In next post I will upload some more pics.Best regards to all the modelers. Miljenko | ||

Last evening I finished montage of winch , ![]() and started work on bow part of keel.It`s made from two parts of plywood so it doesn`t look nice (it`s very visible that this is plywood) so I decided to cover it with strips. ![]() For the end, I place picture from magazine in post that you can see how galleon will look at the end of build. Kind regards, Miljenko ![]() | ||
