Thanks all for the nice and motivating comments.

Next step in building the ship: Filling all gaps with balsa to stabilize the structure.


Other parts got black paint. This parts will hold the guns or models of crew members

Now came the boring part sanding everything down again...






Next steps will be some minor repairs in the bow and aft section before starting with the first planking.

Somehow the temperature sensor of my 3d printer is broken and the last results are beyond all hope. But beside that I am happy that i have finished printing the ship armament.


wheels were made with a perforator

meanwhile the second part of the ship crew arrived, I used the ghost archipelago crew as a base with some kitbashing with napoleonic artillery made by victrix and helmets offered by warlord games.
