    Glad to join you

    Hi everyone, nice to meet all you like minded folk, I'm on ship number 2 (Black Pearl) and still learning having started with the Halcon. Working up to HMS FLY and trying hard to get the planking right before I try it.

    ...and yard rigging terminate at the red arrow point. I also installed the lateen sail. I made the rigging here the same as the Black Pearl (since the Silent Mary's rigging in this area wasn't clearly shown in the movie...). Speechless The red arrow section hasn't been processed yet, but...

    The newcomer "BowerBird" showcases the completed model

    Hello Gunther The model set of the Black Pearl is a 1:48 scale set made by a Chinese merchant named "Wuhan Magic Spirit". The details of their black Pearl are quite good, except for the tail building. I have made some of my own modifications to this part. For the rigging part, I referred to the...

    ...how you have developed, and that is exactly what makes a good modeller. Really beautifully done. I have a few questions for you. The Black Pearl looks really great. How did you arrange the rigging? Was there a rigging plan? Which company made the model and what scale is the Black Pearl...

    USS Constitution - Model Shipways

    Yep, I’m not a good solder soldier either. I remember soldering wires on 2 mm lights for my Black Pearl. I kept losing the lights and the solder wouldn’t take so I wound up buying already soldered ones from Evans. Don’t you have to do something to the brass before it takes solder?

    Black Pearl 2021 Golden Version

    We had a 1947 F100 on our farm. We loved it, especially as kids, riding in the back. Was the Black Pearl a pirate ship? Happy building and no cussing!

    Black Pearl 2021 Golden Version

    Yes I am. Here is what I'm using. I did a couple of samples. Going for dark as I can get. Black pearl you know. I thought I would sew first so I can see the material better. It's a little harder when you haven't done it before. The samples I did seem to be going for the color I'm looking for...

    Just acquired HMS Victory. My first wooden ship

    ...the sails to go with this build and a few tools required to complete it. This is not my first ship. I’ve built the pirate ship, the black pearl. German battle ship Bismarck at 200cm long and the titanic. They are basically scratch builds using my 3D printer. The HMS Victory is my first...
