completed build

Hi all, My name is Chris and I’m new to this forum. I have posted some of my builds this last week and today I received my new model kit: the Brazzera from MarisStella. My first impression of this kit is superb. Comparing to my previous similar build, the Catalina from Mantua, this kit has many...

I have been motivated by Vic's (Vfordyce) Galille Boat (https://shipsofscale.com/sosforums/threads/galilee-boat-kit-from-scott-miller-completed-build.9348/) to post a build log of the whaleboat that I have been working on for the past 10 months or so as I worked on the Endurance...

to this moment....

While waiting to hear more about Pavel's 1/64 scale San Bartolome, I needed something else to work on, so I decided to start this build of a Victory 32-Pounder. A bit of background: When building my Corel HMS Victory cross section kit, I felt the guns included were not to scale. Especially...

In his book “The American Fishing Schooners” (AFS) Howard Chapelle devotes a chapter to the development of the double ended pinkie as a fishing vessel. He also writes about this design as a pleasure craft in “American Sailing Craft”. Chapelle obviously thought highly of the sea worthiness of...

A few years ago, a friend gave me a set of plans to build a 17 foot cendar kayak. Althougt l'm a pretty good wood worker, I'm not about to build a full size kayak. Especially not with the price of lumber these days. Besides, you kinda need a lake or a river to use one which I don't. So the...

Hello, just started to build this amazing vessel in scale 1:70. DeA's kit is very well done, qualitiy materials and decorations, but it is a kit and this time I want to go beyond and build a model that when I'll look at it I can say I couldn't make it better than that. Some pics of deks not yet...

Всем привет модель начал делать в 2013 году закончил в 2015 году. Вот предоставляю фото сборки

Not quite Sir Alec Issigonis infamous ‘camel ’ Zulus where more a mix of the best-off previous drifter designs, but then again you can bet there was a good story telling haw they came about. Hi folks, feed up with breathing sanding dust from the thousands of HMS Blandford’s frame pieces I...

My new projekt! Starting now.

10 years ago, a sailor friend of mine asked me if I'd be willing to build him a wooden 24 foot sailboat around an old Shark 24 fiber glass hull. I could'n resist. So 2 years later he had a nice wooden sailboat. The thing is, aside from a shop full of wood scrap, I didn't have anything to remind...

Hello modeling friends. The model is planed according to the plan drawings of Gerard Delacroix, Le Fleuron 1729. Scale: 1/60, Wood: Elsbeere (Sorbus torminalis). I will build the model as "La Charpente", as shown in picture 0.01. i.e. only the carpentry / joinery, without interior fittings and...

Hi Guys, For some time now I have been toying with the idea of going back to making ships in bottles again as they take up a lot less space in the house and still take quite a bit of time to make, especially if you drink the contents first.LOL!! After completing HMB Endeavour I started looking...

I just got this from Model Expo and upon opening the shipping box, I was surprised at how big the model box is. I am not sure when I will start this Build Log, but there is a possibility it might start soon at some point. I just do not have enough working bench room unless I move some stuff...

I'm starting a new project while the preparation process is underway Я начинаю новый проект, пока идет процесс подготовки

Hi all, as a newbie to this group, following my introduction comments a few folk requested that I post a build log for the Endeavour by Occre. The Endeavour is a 1:54 scale model of Captain Cook's ship, model length 815mm, height 680mm and width 300mm. I bought the kit from Cornwall Model Boats...

Decided to build this ship next. There are several nice build logs on this ship on SOS. I'll attach some images of this kit. Don't know if the kit has ever been updated.

I just joined SOS so as far as the Mayflower goes I have her almost complete, you can see the full build so far here:- https://www.youtube.com/c/TheModelShipwrightPaulLester A couple of points to note if anyone is thinking of building this one, there are some errors on the plans, like some part...

Hull almost done. This is a Nice kit. The quality is excellent. But nothing to recommend for a befinner.

In 1994 I have built this junk for a friend, who sailed in those areas in the fleet of the KJCPL/RIL . Jan
