    Black Pearl

    Hi I built this model a few years ago the bases for the lamps are made from there laser cut hexagonal pieces glued together. See bases bottom right corner and centre. It's a very tight fit to get the castings between the bases, some fitting required. I hope this helps let me know if you have...

    Black Pearl

    I purchased The Black Pearl (Golden Version 2025). I am to point of installing LED lights. Kit had lights and wiring but kind of cheesy so I ordered 3v led lights with wires attached and new button battery switch. I'm puzzled on how to attach stern lamps to rib no 17? I cannot find base for...

    an idea to reach more audiences

    ...three or four hundred years before it was built? (Imagine modelers centuries from now building kit models of the "famous pirate ship Black Pearl" with the same certainty they build models of Victory or Constitution today. Fortunately, that's not a problem any of us will be around to have to...

    Let me introduce myself

    ...the canoe are completely scratch built, even material for decking and planking. I am currently working on a 4' large scale model of the Black Pearl. The build began 5 years ago when I began a Model Ship Club at my school. After a promising start, the club faded out after students realized...

    ZHL - The Black Pearl 1:65 Gold Edition

    To be fair the OcCre Black Swan is also based off the Black Pearl. It's just a different figure head and name. It was a more clever way of getting around copyright laws and licensing from Disney. This kit came from ModelExpo back in late February. I'm not sure why this was pulled from their...

    ZHL - The Black Pearl 1:65 Gold Edition

    ...retailers stay away from the chinese kits as they usually violate copyright laws. i checked model expos website and they only have the black pearl available in the plastic kit form at 1:150 scale. the fact that parts don't fit is a dead give away that this is a chinese knock off kit ( that...

    ZHL - The Black Pearl 1:65 Gold Edition

    ...in frames, as there was no other way to install them without breaking the deck. I also did a color test on the captains cabin wall. The Black Pearl was originally the Wicked Wench before she was burned and sank. So I don't want the ship to be all black, but I want some browns to show through...

    1/200 USS Arizona - Build Log

    ahuh! so what is the actual Sea Blue (5-S)? I have never been able to find an FS std, BSS std, or an RAL cross reference. The best I found was that Sea Blue 5-S was (is) a dark bluish Grey but is not referenced in the American Federal Standards colour charts or has a related colour formulae...

    Black Pearl

    ...story, I joined your group in 2022 after having several back surgerys I was going to be off work for several months so I purchased the Black Pearl to give myself something to do, at some point no longer had the time to continue building the model so I am looking to find someone to buy my...

    Black Swan

    The Athena is a fantasy ship that bears similarities to the Black Pearl, the Black Swan, the Flying Dutchman, and other vessels. There is no historical evidence for this ship. The design of this ship is not historically documented, but the shipbuilding influences of 17th and 18th-century sailing...

    ZHL - The Black Pearl 1:65 Gold Edition

    Now that I've finished my Model Shipways Prince De Neufchatel, I can now start on The Black Pearl that I was recently gifted. This kit was purchased from Model Expo, which has been my go-to for the last 16-ish years of ship modeling. I'm hoping to just do a little something each day to keep...

    ZHL - The Black Pearl 1:65

    This came from ModelExpo and was gifted to me about a month ago. I just wanted to clear my workbench of my current build that I just finished over the weekend. First impressions: The wood quality seems suspect. The walnut laser cuts parts feel brittle and I'm concerned that they will crumble...

    I present to you the first published pages of the Pirate Ship document.

    ...I found in my pursuit in the design of this vessel was that all my drawings were based on a ship in a fictional movie. Although the Black Pearl in Pirates in the Carribean looks authentic, trust me that like Disney always does, they are experts at fooling your eyes. To scale the ship could...

    1/64 A real Pirateship - af Chapman's ANM XL N° 11

    ...an interesting conversation. My idea is a pirate ship is something some people can remember from TV - hopefully. And so I didn't choose a BLACK PEARL but a real Swedish privateer schooner drawn by af Chapman on Plate XL N°11 for my "two hours every friday" project: As she is quite long I...

    Unboxing The Black Swan, Scale 1:75, By OcCre Pirate Ship Model

    This should be an interesting build. the Black Swan is the same as the Black Pearl from POC. Just a different figure head, and licensing from Disney isn't cheap.
