Hello all A very attractive model, but a rather difficult kit. First of all, I assembled the jig, but the board was bent. I was able to fix it without any problems by pasting it on a 1cm thick plate. The frame is as easy as sticking two pieces together. There are a few parts that are...

Hi all. After long sick, I am back . And I will start with Le Salamandre 1:96 Kit from ZHL Models

Fellow modellers This is my diary of building La Salamandre 1752 using a kit purchased from CAF. La Salamandre may not as popular as some other ships, but there are enough examples being built on forums so I am not completely by myself. I like the idea of a partially planked hull showing...

Well I have put this off long enough, welcome to my build log of La Salamandre. The kit is amazing, the materials are top quality. This build will be quite a challenge for me but fortunately I have Uwek, ADC and Koreets logs to follow. The building jig was straight forward and went together...

When I was a youngster in the '50's, the old "James Bliss" catalog contained a kit to build a naval mortar. At the time I couldn't afford anything in that catalog, but that mortar, and the sailing ships that used it, absolutely intrigued me. So it seems odd that it has taken this long for me to...

Hi collegues, I started the build a couple of years ago. It was interrupted several times, but I do not give up))) I will start my log with the current position if you do not mind)) Now it looks like this. The mortir barrels were made by prominent Russian shipmodeler, Dmitry Shevelev. I just...
