I'm starting to get to the stage where I have to decide how to do my canons and ports.
I don't necessary want the gunports wide open with the canons ready to fire, but like it to be more like when she was being in harbor getting prepaired for departure. If possible I'd like it to have some ports open and other shut or half open. I like asymmetry in my models as I feel it makes them come alive.
So here's my question: When looking at the Batavia replica she seems to be able to open the gunports in different angles, that you can open the hatch only halfway. If I remember correctly the replicated gun deck at the museum has ropes for the hatches that allowes them to be either open or closed, not halfway open.
Could Vasa open her hatches half way?
