Default RE: Scratch-built English Galleon 1/36 scale

Amazing job!

what did you use to attach the balsa planks to the ribs?

I’m asking because 6 months ago I started work on the "Wappen von Gamburg" in 1/45th scale

I have started to plank it and intend for it to have around a 20-gun broadside.
it will be complete by summer 2007 at which time I challenge you to warship combat!
My warship is also 100% wind reliant and I am attempting to make it as authentic as possible for the age.

All of my plans for radio control, design, and setup all seem to mirrored yours quite closely so we should be evenly matched

I am overjoyed to discover that I am not the only person who has embarked on the construction of a warship from the age of sail. You have inspired me to get up off my but and to finish my labor of love.

Hats off to you,
