Huge thanks to @NLinAustralia for providing the funding for most of the fieldwork for this project, which let me work with amazing objects from the @rijksmuseum, @schpvrtmsm and @RMGreenwich #shipshapes2018 @FemkeWithag #sharedheritage

Some great views of the 1733 wreck of the Dutch East Indiaman Blijdorp in Cape Verde in the survivors account posted today by @ramonanegron so tried recreating the wreck scene using my 3D scans of the model from @maritiemmuseum @wvduivenvoorde @NLinAustralia #shipshapes2018 #b3d
Using 3D modelling to compare plans of a 1742 design from @schpvrtmsm that changed the Dutch East Indiaman forever to 3D scans of contemporary models from @rijksmuseum. Little differences can tell a very interesting story! @wvduivenvoorde @NLinAustralia #shipshapes2018
Great coverage by Australian media of the Melckmeyt vrirtual dive and #shipshapes2018 project funded by @NLinAustralia and featuring a nice pic with @FemkeWithag@wvduivenvoorde

Working on a draft illustration of the elements of the stern of a Dutch 17th century ship today, based on a scan of 1651 model from @rijksmuseum. Some confusing naming conventions for an English speaker but getting there! @schpvrtmsm @SjoerddeMeer @wvduivenvoorde #shipshapes2018
Some experimental visualisation of CT scanning of model ships as part of my ongoing PhD #b3d #shipshapes2018 @wvduivenvoorde @FlindersMAP

Using 3D software to check how accurate the published lines plans for this 17th century flute ship model are - answer is not quite... #shipshapes2018 @wvduivenvoorde
A little preview of some of my recent work on #shipshapes2018 has appeared in the latest newsletter by DutchCulture on Shared Cultural Heritage.@wvduivenvoorde @NLinAustralia

Last day of my PhD ship model scanning ends with one of the oldest Dutch models, a votive model of 1657 in @NMMGreenwich. Amazing support, 20 staff members were involved in making this possible. Next stop @FlindersMAP Australia #shipshapes2018 @wvduivenvoorde @NLinAustralia
Finished in the Netherlands and over to England- Yesterday's scanning of two 18th century Dutch East India ship models in Chatham Dockyard @DockyardChatham #shipshapes2018 @wvduivenvoorde
Scanning a rare contemporary model of a Dutch West India company slave ship in Vlissingen (Flushing) with great assistance by staff of @muZEEum #shipshapes2018 @NLinAustralia @Zeeuwsmuseum
Go big or go home. Scanning perhaps the largest contemporary VOC ship model on my last PhD trip to @schpvrtmsm #shipshapes2018
A bit of extreme photogrammetry of Dutch votive ship models in Haarlem today at @BavoKerk with assistance of @LiamArchaeology #shipshapes2018 @wvduivenvoorde @FlindersMAP @NLinAustralia #soreshoulders
Presenting my PhD research at the @rijksmuseum to a special gathering of specialists and curators from Dutch museums #shipshapes2018 @maritiemmuseum #sharedheritage
Scanning an interesting votive pinas model from 1623 today in Zierikzee with fantastic support from staff at the lovely @Stadhuismuseum #shipshapes2018 @NLinAustralia
Nice tour on Batavia II today with Martijn Manders of @RCE_Maritiem with #maritimearchaeology students from @UniLeidenNews #shipshapes2018
Three hugely important mid-18th century Dutch ship models, kept in three separate museums in two countries, separated soon after being built, finally reunited through the power of 3D scanning! #shipshapes2018 #shipmodels #reunitedanditfeelssogood @rijksmuseum @KUBEN_Arendal
Excited to arrive in Belgium today, ready to do a couple of days scanning next week of VOC ship models in the beautiful @MASAntwerpen building. #VereenigdeOostindischeCompagnie #shipshapes2018 @NLinAustralia @FlindersMAP #sharedheritage
Can't make it to @ISBSArchaeology sadly but at least my poster is there. Thanks to my colleagues for setting it up. #shipshapes2018

Spent a day at the Vasa museum in Stockholm meeting the researchers. This incredible survival is a close parallel for Dutch retourschips and was built in the Dutch style and can tell us a lot about ships like Batavia #shipshapes2018 @wvduivenvoorde @NLinAustralia @FlindersMAP
Today I scanned a Dutch 18th century VOC ship model, sibling of two that I scanned earlier in 2018 in @rijksmuseum but had to go all the way to Norway for this one! Together the 3 beautiful models represent a pivitol moment in Dutch shipbuilding. @wvduivenvoorde #shipshapes2018
Back on Australian kid's TV this morning, on the awesome #TotallyWildShow talking about my work in @Flinders on 3D #maritimearchaeology and historic Dutch merchant ships. Watch online from 15m40s@NLinAustralia @wvduivenvoorde @FlindersMAP #ShipShapes2018

Filming Dutch ship models in @FLINarchaeology today for @TotallyWildTV with@LeelaVarghese - showcasing our 3D animations, printing and Virtual Reality #maritimearchaeology #shipshapes2018 @NLinAustralia @wvduivenvoorde
Scanning one of the most beautiful and faithful surviving VOC ship scale models today at @AmsterdamMuseum -Bentam’s model from the 1740s #shipshapes2018 #maritimearchaeology @FlindersMAP @rijksmuseum
More peeking inside VOC ship models today in Dordrecht - found some hidden treasures at @HuisVanGijn #shipshapes2018
Great visit to the Batavia reconstruction today at @Batavialand in Lelystad with @LiamArchaeology - got to see the guns going off! @FlindersMAP @wvduivenvoorde @NLinAustralia #shipshapes2018
On to the @AmsterdamMuseum with @LiamArchaeology this avo to arrange my scan of this @rijksmuseum VOC model next week #shipshapes2018 and finished the day under a pile of books at the @schpvrtmsm library #exhausted @NLinAustralia back to both places again tomorrow! @DiederickWil
Great meeting this morning on possibilities for CT scanning of ship models with Alexander Kostenko and scientists at the Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica @CWInl in Amsterdam Science Park @AdamSciencePark #shipshapes2018 @Sophilyplum @FrancienBossema @NLinAustralia @wvduivenvoorde
No sleep till Breukelen! Early morning start on another lovely sunny Dutch day on de trein with Liam to @maritiemmuseum Rotterdam to scan more VOC ship models #shipshapes2018
