First of all, I would like to apologize for my excess of information prior to the model development work itself, be it the history or origin of the ship, references or other topics, because for my part I like to be fully informed about the ship that I am going to build. model and evaluate...

Back in September, I was fortunate to receive this kit as a freebie from Model Expro, a special offer that came with the Occre Beagle kit someone gifted me. Lucky me!! I did a Midwest kit last July when I built the Sea Bright Dory. It was a fun build I passed on to my sister, who has a house...

Part 1 This is perhaps unorthodox but I have completed the model and now I am writing about it. I purchased the kit to get me back into building ship models and as a precursor for building the 1/350 Mini Art Enterprise CVN-65. Normally I build 1/48 scale airplanes. At any rate I bought the ship...

Hello, in recent years I have prepared several models of small boats, they are not majestic like the frigates or liners that I see here, but I think that those gunboats, fishing boats or small sailing merchants have their charm. Please, excuse my english Påjama Brynhilda (Part 1a of 6)...

Excuse my English, because I am a Spanish speaker. “Spray” I have been a member of this forum for weeks now and I have had the pleasure of seeing the excellent models displayed here. Already "retired" and with time to spare, in recent years I have been doing naval modeling, but more than large...

Hello Everyone! This is my first public Build Log. It's my 3rd ship (well, maybe 6th counting those I've started and put aside (aka gave up on for now). It's a fairly easy one (I think) and I'm taking my time with it, practicing my patience as well as skills. So, the Sea Bright Dory Lifeboat...

Hello modellers. As some of you will know I have just finished a Sopwith Camel, my most delicate model to date, never again such a fragile build for me. Talking to a friend about this he suggested I make him a harbour tug, this would be a more substantial build, one that I should be able to...

Hello friends, I’ve recently retired and picked up this wonderful hobby about a year ago. I really like these small kits. Especially when I’m trying to gain as much knowledge of nautical terms along with skills for woodworking:-) I’ve had very little of either. The build starts with the...

My new hobby started summer of 2023 with an RV vacation that included a visit to historic Lunenburg, NS. While there we got to walk the decks of the Bluenose II and meet the captain. I saw many pricey prebuilt models of the Bluenose while there and once home was inspired to build my own. I...
