just received your Triomphante. Apart from the oversized mizzen deck (which can be easily corrected) it is a very nice looking kit. I am missing the clearly drawn instructions of the Bayard kit though. Pictures are never as clear as drawings in my humble opinion. Otherwise a very nice effort. Hope you will do more 19th century French battleships in the future.
Cheer,
Pieter Thank you very much. I'm very sorry that the instruction is made by my friend and unfortunately he is sick and can not use computer for about 2-3 month...  So I use photos this time. I hope he can back soon and help me. [quote="Pieter"]Hi Abdur,

That's the oddest quarterdeck I have ever seen. Was it designed like that, or an adaptation? Hi,it is shown in the plan so I made it.  The (lower) balcony at the stern is too big, it should be the same width all the way. The tumblehome of the hull continues above the balcony all the way to the deck above, according to the plans. It does not flare out, like the model. What looks like a flare on the sternpost is actually the vertical support for the outrigger yard. The deck above is too large, it's edge should follow the balcony below, not overhang it. This deck is also too high, it should be below the level of the aft bridge according to the plan, not above it. [quote="Abdur"][quote="billyboy"]Impressive.

If you google 'cuirasse victorieuse' you will find pictures that show it. It looks like a support for the mizzen boom. Abdur wrote: billyboy wrote: Impressive.

French ironclads are favorites of mine. I've built a couple (Redoutable and Courbet). I saw your Bayard earlier. I never thought I'd see a model of that ship. Down the road, I may build the Amiral Duperre, but may have problems with the gun hoods. Hope to see more of your work!

This is phantastic! I'm glad to see more and more ships from the golden age of ironclads afloat! But there are still so many missing...
