I just finished the nightmare of building the FAIR AMERICAN with very little instructions. I have decided to build Manoli's cross section USS Constitution and need some help. But, I can't find a complete Build Log. Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks

Time to get back to the bench, wich by the way has received a bit of an upgrade since the Santisima Trinidad It is not time to start the Santisima Trinidad cross section, don't think there's any point in presenting the kit, it's well known I'll do the same type and extent of weathering that...

Ok Guys, here is the review of the Connie Cross Section. Sorry about some of the pictures are a bit fuzzy, I was shooting in at a hurry because I had to return the shoot box. I hope you have room in the house, this is a 32" high espectacular model.

I've had this kit in my stash for quite a few years and I think it's finally time to build it. I know that the kit is chock full of inaccuracies, it's missing a deck Mamoli modeled 3 decks instead of the correct 4), there is a cannon on the main deck (probably added to create display interest)...

Today I began the Unicorn Model's miniature kits of the HMS Druid cross sections. The first is the stern cross section and the second kit is the middle cross section. The stern cross section came out about a year before the middle cross section. I have had both for a few months now and always...

Well this is the beginning of my first build log. Hoping that posting my progress will keep pressure on my progress. I recently retired from my second career and have been using my new free time to work on projects and hobbies. I started working on this model to see if I could make passable...

This is my log for my scratch build of a cross section of the bomb vessel HMS Granado. The plans were drawn by Jeff Staudt and were based on Peter Goodwin's AOTS book, which I plan to use as a reference. The section is from the center of the ship and includes 3 gun ports on each side, and a...

Got my HMS Blandford plans from @Donnie today and I'm going through them carefully and thinking of all the new tools I can justify with this project. :cool: Seriously though, there is a lot here to absorb. I'll be easing into this as I finish up my 2nd build and reading all the logs very...

Hello Everyone, It has been over a year since I've retired from the military and I finally find myself at liberty to follow my dream, construction of a cross section of the HMS Victory. I must confess that the liberty I am currently enjoying is a break from the my wife's "Honey-Do" list so I...

Hello It is good to be back from medical issues that kept me from sitting at work bench. Hope to locate a previous build of the Artrsania cross section as a guide. I really missed building scale models. See you soon as I get started.

The build of my other model, H.M.S. Leopard at 1:80 took almost 9 years, so, at this time I didn't want to take on another full-on build of a complete ship. As I have basic drawings/plans of Leopard I'm going to have a go at a cross section. Since a section will require a lot less space for the...

OK, here is my first entry for blog on this kit build, it is OcCre kit 16800. Overview of kit was it was a good kit with easy to read instructions in English and available online for other countries. The photo guide is ok, pictures are a bit small for my old eyes, but I can work with it. It...

This is now the official first opening remarks about my 1:32 build log of the Blandford. The first comment is that this is my first scratch build. I have been putting this off for a long time and now is the time. I also ordered the Blandford AOTS to help me with terminology. First things first...

I thought I would just jump-in feet first into the world of POF! I have PM'd Donnie and am waiting for access to the download plans!

The drawings for this project have been updated per the latest information from the shipwreck and the English shipbuilding standards of the time period. Plans and sections note these drawings are preliminary to be used for the prototype and are subject to change during construction. Mike
