Naval Cutter "Alert" 1777
-
This is a great project. I'd like to see some people in the scene though for scale.
-
Thanks Guys
Starting The main Deck,Had some issues with Drawings and Scales,Some have the ship lined to the waterline and some have her on the keel,which changes the angle slightly,and the scales keep changing per drawing...slightly annoying but neccesary for printing I guess.
-
Main Deck Complete,Carlings,Ledges,Deck Knees and Beams all added,Still need to add the Hanging Knees (Vertical Beam Supports) Sail room (in the Centre of the below deck) needs to be properly fitted.
-
Nice one!
-
Fantastic.
-
unbelievable
-
This is some nice work!
-
Brilliant work, is this sketchup and what render is this!
-
Hehe Thanks guys,Everything is modelled in Sketchup,and im using Max to render,the first few shots were with KT.
Deck Fittings Added,Ladders and the Hanging Knees were added,There was little information on them but because of the way that each beam meets the inner hull at a different angle,each hanging knee is very different thus has to be custom made,Found the Wagon

Whwn its done you need to do some sort of cross section to show off the insides!
-
Here is a View of the decks and layout :

Marius,
You cannot embed an image if it is in your personal email account!
Download it and attach straight to the post, please.
(And yes, this is an incredible project so please, keep them coming!)
-
Hehe was worth a try,its a animated Gif so uploading it renders the animation inactive,shows on my pc so i thought I have found a way around it,can understand why,Ideas?
-
Impressive work...well presented.
-
Many more Bits and Pieces added,smaller details take some time,all done as low poly as possible (Well to my standards
) She is nearing the 20,000 poly count at the moment,Taking away the faces facing up from the framework below the decks freed up 4000 Polys,My Budget is 100k,Im sure I will get her in under 50K
-
Indeed, an incredible model!
I have a question totally unrelated to the model. As I was looking over teh beautiful project, I wondered how you are going to get it to the water?
Is there a method that a ship like that would be launched, the beach is pretty flat.
Just wondering.Stephen
-
Stephen The whole yard is suppose to be at an angle and she is Tied down from when her keel is laid,when the ship is complete she will slide to the water which is suppose to be behind her
,like such :
-
Well thats it for this Year Folks,Have a good one!
Iron Firehearth and Stove added,Jeer and topsail bitts added along with the Modified Windlass (Modified in 1777,not by me )
All you can see of the stove in the last 2 shots is the Flue and the coaming on the deck.
-
Stunning. Keep up the beautiful work. -
Is this for the Smithsonian? National Geographic?Wow. I just learned more about old boats/ships and shipbuilding than I've ever known.
