Hello Friends! After a bit of an internal struggle as to whether or not I wanted to create another build report, here I am back in a familiar spot (but on an unfamiliar side of the forum). One of my particular flaws is I don’t like to do the same thing twice. My first ship model was a...

After much consideration and recommendations from "Jimsky" and "RussF", I decided to contribute to this friendly forum. I am from Slovakia and I thank Google Translate for allowing me to communicate with you.ROTF The project itself started in May 2023 and today I want to at least give you a...

Greetings, from Lake Pontchartrain, outside of New Orleans. The Boudriot/Berti monograph arrived the day before the mobile workshop left Colorado. Shipyard supervisor poured over the plans and sawdust will fly tomorrow. The first major decision was the room/spacing of the frames: 1. 10...

Greetings Group, Welcome to the start of my newest project - La Renommee in 1/48. I am putting my supply of Swiss Pear, Boxwood and newly acquired Black Hornbeam to good use on my favorite frigate. Many of you have seen my log of Le Gros Ventre in 1/36 from a couple of years ago. This...

A new journey begins... First of all I rearranged my workshop and did a slight upgrade. I bought a case for my laser to help preventing the spread of smoke and smell, and built a case for my cnc machine to keep the wood dust inside. As a bonus it also slightly reduces the noise

I am based in Ukraine and have built several sailboats using Amati and Korabel materials. My dream is to build a sailing boat from scratch. In 2019, I acquired the Gerard Delacroix monograph and Adrian Sorolla textbook from Ancre. While I don't possess the skills required to build from the...

Доброго времени суток. Попросили построить нечто вроде подаренной друзьям кроссекции Gross Ventre. Повторяться не хотелось. Потому, решил строить фрагмент линкора, основываясь на приобретенном опыте. Чертежи нашел в интернете в свободном доступе. Масштаб произвольный. Материал: американская...

Buongiorno, inizio un nuovo progetto, il Saint Philippe. Sicuramente non è un modello per i meno esperti, viste le difficoltà soprattutto per la costruzione delle varie parti delle coste che richiedono la realizzazione di mortase per incastrarsi una all'altra (tutte da disegnare anche perché non...

Hello everyone. Last year I successfully completed the construction of the Le Gros Ventre model according to Gerard Delacroix's monograph (published on modelshipworld.com) and I chose L'Amarante as my next model (also according to GD's monograph). I started the POF construction at the end of...

I started this work in 2008 and was left abandoned for a few years. In 2022, with great hesitation, I took out this box in which I had stored the manufactured parts. Here is the progress of my work today, which is far from finished.

Доброго времени суток. Наконец то пришел мой корпус от Дмитрия Шевелева. Ждать пришлось долго, но отчасти виноват я сам. Изначально предполагал только корпус с разметкой обшивки, в итоге, вышло что вышло). В квартире подобного я бы строить не рискнул. Очень мусорный процесс, да и инструмента не...

Hello everyone, I have posted finished projects before, but have never completed a build log. This will be my first. Plans from Ancre. So far I have worked on the bulkheads and frame. Used Poplar for internal structure. Deck is going to be in Maple. Unsure what I will use for the hull...

Hey Let me introduce myself, I'm Splinter and I started modeling 2 years‘s ago. I silently follow various artists regarding this form of model building. I am someone who keeps reports concise because knowledge is very limited, besides I am not a professional photographer In the meantime I had...
