Hello,
it is really difficult to write something original about such a famous ship. So maybe the short story, how I started it, is more interesting.
Long, long time ago (about one year ago;)) I asked Ab ("abhovi") about his opinion on some drawings of Polish old sailship. He confirmed my doubts about those plans and suggested, that there could be some more interesting ships I could build, for example "De Zeven Provincien":eek: So I started working on this model.:confused: I received drawing and Ab was patiently helping me, answering questions, explaining details:mad:... and now you can see the very first effects of our "co-operation":).
I built the frame structure only to the "verdek", and then I will add higher "levels" of the "halfdek" and the "bakdek". Gunports will be open only on the left side, and that is why I painted dark brown only there. At the very begining I had to attach "kardeelblok", as it is tide two decks lower, and it couldn't be possible to do it later. Now this block will wait 1,5-2 years:-)))))
I'm convinced that every single word about the ship and drawings written by Ab will be more fascinating, than my broken English. So now the first pictures:
