Hello all. Pleased to say I'm starting my first ship build, the Occre Polaris. I'll try my best to run a beginners build log as I go. All's going fairly smoothly so far. Lessons learned... Everbuild GP Super Glue works great for gluing wood to wood. Even faster with the activator. Other super...

Kilka dni temu rozpoczęło się leczenie Gorch Fock OcCre w skali 1:90 Oto pierwsze przymiarki do konstrukcji kadłuba: A few days ago, the Gorch Fock OcCre 1:90 scale treatment began Here are the first attempts at the hull structure: Jeszcze dużo pracy:)

Hello. This is my first attempt in wood modeling, therefore, I don’t know much, I’m trying to repeat how it was done on Youtube. frame glued with glue Moment-wood:

Hello everyone , This is my first post here. It's my 2nd wood ship that i'm building. I got this kit as commission build with the keel/skeleton already assembled,sadly he didn't kept gluing the Bulkheads straight so there is little warps with the deck when i assemble it. I know i have some...

5/5/23 to 5/5 Got this kit about a month ago and have been waiting to start it until I got to Vallarta, and I’m finally here. Since it is only my second build and my first not at home, I knew just getting everything to Mexico would be a bit of a challenge. After all, I’m still learning what...

I am building Ulises by Occre. This is my first venture into ship modelling, although I have been building model railroads on various scales for more than half a century. I am up to the hull painting phase. So far so good and great fun gas been had. There appears to be lots of useful advice...

Well, Haven't had time to do any building as of late, have a sick Wife to take care of. Finally got some time and put my Occre Bounty Sloop aside and started on the Occre Beagle. Have always loved this ship and it's history and, as a bonus, there are some great build log videos online so...

My first kit from OcCre and unboxing is pretty impressive. Best parts list I have had certainly a huge improvement on the Riva Aquarama. The plans are all in A3 size rather than full sheet and I think I like that. Much easier to lay parts on the 1:1 plan than when it is pinned to wall. Looking...

hello, Kit in progress with modifications get from the books

I am starting a build of the Whaling ship The Essex. First launched in Nantucket Massachusetts. After being built as a merchant ship in 1799 was refitted as a Whaler . 85 feet in length the ship was rammed by a Sperm Whale November 20, 1820. Initially the entire crew of 20 survived the attack...

Working on a new commision build. It's been about 4 months now, just finished up the masts.

Just claiming my little space to start my building journey. Awaiting my kit. I built a ship over 10 years ago. I finished it, but could have been my better. Had no idea about planking. More learning resources available these days, so I have high hopes. Between then and now I have experience...

I found another kit under the Christmas tree. I'm going to try to level up more than I did with the HMS Beagle kit. It is a challenge for me and I already know that I will make some parts myself and replace them. I have read several threads on this server and on the damned and criticized MSW...

After a few days of recovering from the disar model Junco Chino (Chinese Junk) disaster, it's time to move forward. I received this kit as a holiday gift. Opening the kit, I was happy to see much better-written assembly instructions along with colour photos supporting the written instructions...

Good afternoon I am going to build a Xebec. Originally I was going to build the Jabeque Cazador from OcCre 1:60 scale, however as I will show I am going to change this up a little. The kit : As with most reasonably affordable kits there is nothing exotic about the Cazador from OcCre. When my...

Time to start a new one, occre was nice and sent me a San Ildefonso for me to build and weather here's the start

Having received the OcCre kit of Shackleton's Endurance for Christmas I am keen to get started and wish to document my progress. I am aware of the excellent build logs of this kit already on this site and hope you don't mind putting up with another. I won't do a box opening or "what's in the...

I’m a bit late in starting a build log but, what the heck, here goes… I’m building the Cala Esmeralda from OcCre started this past August. once the deck was planked it was on to the bulwarks. Needed all my small clamps to bend them into position. I probably won’t do it that way again.

In choosing this build I decided to return to OcCre after excursions to Caldercraft, Corel and Korabel I like OcCre kits. They include generous quantities of good quality materials and fittings The instructions, in the form of coloured pictures of each stage of the build, are very easy to...

Hello everyone, While I am getting ready for my first scratch build of the L'Amarante, I would like to start a build thread of the Endurance that I am building. I have admired Ernest Shackleton's Antarctic Expedition for a long time. What he and his men were able to endure was truly amazing...
