Hello Captain J here. Well here we go. Rookie at the wheel. This should be good. This will be my first build log along with my first build. Here are a few pics of what makes me happy. More to come

This is the great work awarded by ID:ZIX Prize. The finished model of ZHL model product has won high comments and the great prize in Competition. I will update the making process details and the way to assemble and painting method.

There are some very nice Black Pearls in this forum and I'd like to share my rendition of this build. I don't know if this was a Revell to Zvezda or visa-versa, but all in all it was a nice kit that kept me busy. Some modifications were made to the staircase, Captain's cabin doorway, helm...

Hello again colleagues, After a few years in the warehouse, it was the Black Pearl's turn. An iconic movie ship, that I am making for my daughter, because I made a promise, and I had read somewhere, that promises should be kept. The model is in 1/72 scale by the company Zvezda. An extremely...

Hi all shipwrights, I have started Capt. Jack Sparrow's Black Pearl 1:96. I got this kit second-handed for an unbelievable low price. I think it will be a good learning project to do some weathering on it. Please stay tuned! Good luck building to all. EZ

Ahoy All, I'm happy to announce that a new Black Pearl is in the shipyard. Well, actually, her keel was laid a few months ago. First, my heartfelt condolences to King Charles and the Royal Family on this day, the 8th of September. The passing of the worlds longest reigning Monarch is a sad...

This starts my first build log of the ZHL Black Pearl which is the "Golden Version". I will be posting images very soon.

edit: My plans are finally available https://tinyurl.com/mpt5u435

Hi everyone. I’m starting construction on ZHL’s Black Pearl. Not a lot of difficulties because the notice is very incomplete because I only speak French. The construction instructions do not respect the normal phases for the assembly of a kit. Moreover, the wood varieties used are not all of...

"It's not just a keel and a hull and a deck and sails, that's what a ship needs. But what a ship is - what the Black Pearl really is - is freedom" Captain Jack Sparrow. And I'd like to add it is also a lot of fun! I fell in love with that ship ever since I saw it on the big screen for the first...

Well, just opened the box tonight and inventoried everything, all seems to be in order. Removed the keel pieces and filed the edge profile on the first piece. I will try to keep track of build time in the log. I expect to be rather slow and cautious as this is my first ship build ever. I...

It's time :D

Captain's Log ~~~ March 08, 2021 Today is an exciting day. The day is cool, seas still calm but skies are clouding due to an approaching winter storm. There will be no red skies tonight, only the burning of midnight oil because the booty from the far distant land of ZHL has arrived. The...

I hope someone will be interested in another build log of the BP, this will be my second wooden ship model the first was the Rattlesnake by Mamoli nearly 30 years ago. This is the first time that I have attempted a build log so if there is anymore information required please advise. This build...

I just started building the ZHL Black Pearl Golden Version 2021. This was inspired by the build logs of Reggie (WarrLight) and Vic (Vfordyce). My daughter who has degrees in film and education just moved her first home and I am building the BP her and her husband as a house warming gift. She was...

Like many new comers to this forum, I think the final nail in the coffin in getting into ship building was the ZHL pirate ships. Couldn’t find if this has been asked before, but what is the difference between the 3 different models offered. It seams as if the golden version is slightly smaller...

When I decided to get back into ship modeling, I looked around and got really excited about the Black Pearl. Like many I was confused by the vast array of prices and kits that all kind of looked the same but maybe not. At any rate I took a shot at one of the cheaper kits, not really expecting...

My daughter’s best friend has sustained her through some rough going. I was going to build tle Soleil Royal for my girl, but she asked me to build the Black for her friend first. So here goes.

The Black Pearl was also displayed on the back of the Flying Dutchman. Both of them are Tamiya History Museum, but for some reason, they had an extraordinary presence. Now, when I think about it, I think I made such a big work well... It's a strange feeling. It's a great honor to have my work...
