Hms rodney dom bumagi 1:200

This is first build thread on this forum and I still learn how to use it, so please forgive me in case of stupid things may happen :)

I bought a model and laser cut ribs (also from Dom Bumagi)

Laser cut ribs ... .. hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
What I can say: sure (maybe in mine one) there are places where carton is not completely burned through, maybe laser performance was too small.

After assembly, there was problem with width of the deck. Somewhere skeleton. Where was 1-2 mm difference but sometimes (specially in the back) the difference was 4mm (ribs 2-6 and few in the back).

I decided that body will be filled with a mounting foam. Due to that, the whole structure had to be strengthened. I did not wanted to cut the ribs on water line because it could occur too many bugs. That's why I fixed it with slats. The slats are placed in ribs 5 mm from the water line.
To make it enough precisely I created a template.

After foam evaporation, deck gluing, and the most commonly used putty, grinding, putty, grinding and grinding
Superstructures: this is more or less good. There are differences, but this can be solved.

And on last 4 pictures, actual situation :)
