Britannia Model 2nd Hull Planking

click

Woo Hoo. I finally finished the second planking on the Britannia model. I have never planked a wooden ship model hull before. It is not perfect and the shape is off a bit but it came out better than I thought it might. The stern is done incorrect because I missed something in the translation – like – english. I corrected my error the best I good with my limited skills in this area.

Trying to get the shape of the bottom pieces of wood was a challenge also. The two pieces had to line up exactly with the planking strips. I am hopeful that the rudder will hide some of the worst of it all.
