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)...
As a complete novice at model making, I started this a few days ago. I’m a big fan of the Patrick O’Brian Aubrey Maturin books and y wife bought me the kit as an anniversary present back in August as a project for the winter months. I thought the New Year was the perfect time to make a start...
And so it begins. After doing some chores around the house to get on my better sides's good side I started Surprise. It's a Mamoli kit so it's packed with lots of hardwood including all the gun carriages, capstain, ship's wheel and more. The first layer of planking looks like limewood, other...
I just found this great site and am looking forward to sharing and learning more. I’m working on the Mamoli 1/90 HMS Victory and have been since 25 May 2019. I purchased the kit in the early nineties and after retiring last year decided to finally take it on. I previously worked on the Heller...
I started a build log on this ship on Model Ship World and got some good feedback so I thought I might continue it here. If you want to see the MSM log its...
Hi all, new member to the site so thought i would say hello and introduce myself.
Im from Grimsby, North East Lincolnshire & 1st timer to scale modelling. I needed a new hobby during lockdown and thought I would try my hand at Mamoli HMS Victory. I know, I know .. shouldn't start with this kit...
Just got this kit, does not come with list of materials to identify different wood supplied, some descriptions in Italian. Looking for anyone who has done this one and how you ID'd the correct plank
Started the build back in 2005 when my son was born, put about 90 hrs in then we had a secondchild 2009 so the boat went on hold. We moved house in 2013 and I moved my big shed with us and set it up as a proper Man cave (boatshed!!) said "right. I can start the boat again" to which the admiral...
Started on USS Constitution (Mamoli kit MV31). This is an old kit (before laser cutting). Two photos show keel pieces laid out (notice the numbering on the bow piece is on the wrong side). It is not glue yet. Having to sand the connections until I get a good fit. I am suppose to layout the...

This is my very first build, but I have always had a fascination with tall ships and the age of sail. I started building the Black Prince a few years back, and then it got put in storage after a move. I found myself in need of some tools to continue, but I recently jumped back in. I've dug it...

So I bought this kit in 1992 and completed the model in 1993. I did a really poor job of rigging the ship with full sails. Overall it looked decent to the layman from 3 feet away but was really lacking in the detail department. It didn’t even have deadeyes where the ratlines attached and the...

I am starting a Mamoli model of the H.M.S. Surprise, Have the frames , all 17 glued in place and this morning the Gun Deck is now glued and under cramp/tension.
Having already found a...
I received this kit from my Boss who wanted it built ASAP. This will set me back a bit on other builds, but I'm happy to build it for him. Before I ended up hospitalized I managed to get some of it done so I figured I would share the progress here. First this kit isn't accurate as it's missing...
This is a copy of build log started back in March this year 2018:
decided to build HMS Victory by Mamoli 1:90 scale. Reasons? I wanted to build a model which is a) relatively complex; b)not too large so I can work on it in my condo (moved out of house a few years ago); c) of a beautiful and...
