Welcome! your work seems to me clean and well done.

Rodolfo.

Welcome, we’re glad to see your model in progress. We’ll follow this interesting work.

I changed the thread’s title, adding the ship’s name in latin characters

Cheers

Welcome on board!
May you say something about yourself?
What's your name, where are you from?

L'indirizzo mi sembra chiaro, non è proprio "vicino", come Verona-Padova ad esempio, ma penso che vi intenderete anche in Cirillico.

Dovrebbe essere qui, distretto a nord di Irkutsk.

Dear friends, Hello! I invite all of you to join me in building the Soleil Royal. Since this is my second build of such a kit from Deagostini, I welcome any input, so please feel free to give as much advice and criticism as possible. ✋ I am glad that you have warmly accepted me into your ranks. Here, too, I decided to put a topic about the Assembly of the legendary French flagship SOLEIL ROYAL.Patronage primarily attracts the opportunity to participate in the community, so we will build, search for information, and understand the subtleties together!
I will build it - not according to the magazine with major improvements to improve the appearance with the involvement of other materials and tools.
Major
design changes: 1. The strengthening of the skeleton of keel and frames.
2. Production of ship mounting on keel blocks.
3. Manufacture of all ship decks.
4. Manufacture of interior lighting for decks and stern.
I have little experience. I built the ship Lord of the seas .. Lord of the seas. from De Agostina.
I'm giving you a picture of this ship. I temporarily stopped construction at the stage of finishing the cladding.

I hope for a good discussion, but now a few
photos.

dantist soverin,тут есть и русскоговорящие (мы с Walterone - в Москве). Рад, что наш форум становится международным!

[Qui ci sono anche parlanti il russo (Walterone ed io siamo a Mosca). Sono felice di vedere che il nostro forum sta diventando internazionale!]

Che bello vederti felice col tuo modello...

I'm working on the forward bulkhead. How it will really be I do not know. The option that the magazine offers does not suit me. But there is something to focus on.

Quanto a cirillico e lingua ci intendiamo, ma sono moooooolto distante da lui, ben +5 fusi orari da Mosca! :asd:

Good afternoon to all. For a long time, I didn't have the opportunity to continue what I started, but now things are moving forward:). Colleagues!
On this quiet and not-yet-late evening, I have decided on the next steps in my shipbuilding project. The next step is the rough sheathing of the ship's hull. Due to the lack of free time, the speed of the ship's assembly has slowed down. Before starting work, I dismantled the ship's hull from the display stand. It has become inconvenient to firmly attach the model, so I suggest building it in a foam box. It's relatively soft so as not to spoil the model.*
All the preparatory work is completed, it's time to start. Before starting the cladding, we arm ourselves with…*
Wood material linden rail 5x2x50mm.
Wood material birch rail
5x2x30mm. from the magazine set from Diagostini.*
Tools and consumables*
Nails 10x0.7mm
Nailing tool
Mini drill + 0.7mm drill bit
PVA glue (red)
Wood flour
Iron
Rack soaking bottle
Shlivmashina + renovator
Sandpaper, sponge, bar.
A knife for cutting rails.
The motor for narrowing the slats. I
started roughing the hull.
A) Fitting the slats on the model body, marking with a pencil from where the rail needs to be narrowed. Marking with a pencil the location of the nails in the projection of the frames.*
B) Next, I made holes with a 0.7 mm drill bit and narrowed the rail on a sandpaper. *
C) Soak in hot water for 10' - 15' When soaking the rails, there is a problem that there is no container in which you can place the rail completely, but in my case, it is not necessary to soak the rail completely, in this case, I soak in a glass bottle from under beer. *
In order to avoid cracking and breaking of the rail in places of sharp bends. You can also bend over steam.
G) Once again, I try it on the body, and if everything is satisfactory, I apply PVA glue to the rail and immediately attach it with nails. Since the nails are very small and it is inconvenient to hammer them in, it is best to use a nail gun. I have such a tool in my arsenal. This made the process much faster. However, a small hammer is

С возвращением!
Bentornato!

Good day to all.
The ship model doesn't fit on the desktop. It's convenient to do the rough sheathing on the floor.

And so 20 rows are made. I cleaned the body a little from glue, but I haven't polished it properly yet. I used sandpaper, a block, a sanding machine, and finally an emery sponge. This method allows me to evaluate my work more accurately.
After that, I move to the other side and repeat the process.
The most challenging part is bending the front slats, as they require careful attention. The middle and back slats are much easier to shape.
I firmly believe that our model has the potential to last a long time. However, it is important to note that this model is not cheap. Every modeler invests a lot of time, money, and effort into it. It is primarily a memory of the present, which is unfortunately rapidly passing away.

Кстати... с праздником! :beer:

A proposito, buona festa!

Thank you, that's very kind of you! I'm glad you know that too.🤗❤️🤚

Hello, dear colleagues - model shipbuilders!
My "Shipyard is working. My main concern is the construction of a model of the French sailing ship Soley Royal. I must say that over the years of construction, I have departed from the Soley Royal model developed by Deagostini. I have completed the twentieth row of rough planking. I am starting the thirtieth row of planking from the keel.*
-due to the fact that the soaked rail lay on the nails very easily, I just joined the rails one to one without making wedges. In principle, the rails lay normally, not taking into account the pattern on the front. But I decided that it was not important for the rough sheathing.

Slowly but surely, I'm working on the rough sheathing of the Soley Royal hull.

He completed the roughing of the hull of the Soley Royal ship, which means that the outer shell of the hull is formed from primary slats. This is the main stage of construction, after which the processing of the hull begins (sanding, putty) and the transition to finishing and other work.

I made vertical wooden fender bars. It was placed in the area of the midship (middle of the ship) in line with the main hatch. Three pieces + an outboard ladder Along the edges of the steps passed two cables, which served as handrails and helped with ascent and descent.*

Very clean work. The strips are properly close to each other, wood colours are well chosen and the hull is well detailed. It’s a masterpiece in progress, really.
I see, you left the head of the brass nails in original metalicl colour. Do you think either keep this choice or brunish the metal?
