The Red Dragon ship is, so far, amazing! ....I’m sure you’ll work out the problems with the new one!

I have to agree with my esteemed colleague: 'Tis all looking mighty fine from here and, as you are an experienced shipbuilder now, I agree that you will certainly find a solution to your warping problem.

And if you dont, you can just say that its ill-advised to ship out with a warped hull :p

Seriously though, building several ships for this challenge is quite impressive and your planking pictures are very educational.

Thanks for the comments, I think I will start again from the beginning with the third ship, because the waterline was a little bit to high.

Meanwhile, the decks of the water witch are full planked, the sides will be made of Card, that is much easier and faster to build.

The Red Dragon made some progress, too

A thing of beauty.

Very cool - nice planking there, and that grille is the works.

Next Steps:

The water witch got her hull, and meanwhile the big gun arrived. A parrot gun from HLBS, super nice model and super service, came with two sheets for instructions.
