Nuestra Senora del Pilar by Occre - Build log

Hi Phil.
First of all i wish you a happy birthday Birthday-Cake
I have been looking over your build log this morning. It's growing into a beautiful model!

Wow Thank you for that @Herman Herman! A very happy birthday to you Phil. May you enjoy a lifetime ahead of good health and plenty of model building!
 
Thank you so much! It's only my 2nd build and I am learning as I go. It is great fun by the way!
Then you are ahead of me, I am working on my first build. Did acquire several books on ship modeling but nothing beats a forum like this where actual experience is shared.
 
Indeed, I also own that book - the dutch edition. Years ago I borrowd it several times from our public library but it covers a lot of information so i decided to buy it.

It will certainly prevent me from making too many mistakes by mixing building methods from diffetent periods and regions.

This, being my first ever build log, will be an interesting endeavor for me. I will post images as I complete the many many stages of the build. Each image will be processed in Photoshop (Ver CS6 Extended) and "Saved for the Web" to help with file size.

I ordered this model from Amazon for reasons I'll keep to myself but suffice to say, it was expensive. But not to worry. I'm sure I'll spend even more along the way.

The box arrived undamaged and was over 2 feet long, 4 inches deep and pretty heavy. I'll show pictures of the contents next posting.
