    Le Requin by Zhl - MY FIRST POF MODEL

    Hello guys, I'm on the way to start my new project: willing to build my first PoF model and the choice fell on "Le Requin". Someone could think I'm crazy as it's a quite complex model; well you are right but I think that a bit of sane insanity is mandatory in everything we do. The model belongs...

    San Felipe 1690 from ZHL

    Hello everyone, I'm back. This time with a ZHL San Felipe. I finished up the Montanes (I'll post some closing photos). That was a massive learning experience for sure. I know my mistakes and how to avoid them for this next build. The model is in transit, arriving mid September, so I...

    Le Requin 1/48 ZHL model [COMPLETED BUILD]

    Just before finishing the Brazzera from Maris Stella, I ordered a new kit. It took almost 2 months to arrive (Aliexpress :) ), but it was worth the wait. I have been looking for a high-end and challenging kit and I think Le Requin from ZHL is exactly that. I expect, it will take quite some...

    ZHL Soleil Royal

    My discovery of this site is a little late. Im 37 and just now discovered shipbuilding as a passion that came out of left field. I’m partway through my second build, the first being the Golden Hind. I welcome any comments or suggestions that will further my knowledge of sailing ships. Here...

    A New Black Pearl in the Shipyard... All Scenarios Version

    Ahoy All, I'm happy to announce that a new Black Pearl is in the shipyard. Well, actually, her keel was laid a few months ago. First, my heartfelt condolences to King Charles and the Royal Family on this day, the 8th of September. The passing of the worlds longest reigning Monarch is a sad...

    Build log: HMS Surprise 1:48 based on a kit from ZHL

    I have made a separate kit presentation of this 1:48 HMS Surprise where I go through the pros and cons of this kit. Model making is my hobby for the dark winter months. I started this project last year, and for the start of this new “season” I will present the construction report from last...

    HMS Surprise 1:48 from ZHL

    I am returning to modelling after 30 years with this first model in wood, though in between I have been working with wood construction on a larger scale (small buildings, furniture, etc.). For my first model I decide that a scale of 1:48 would give me the level of detail I love, and also be...

    Black Pearl 1:50 (ZHL, All-Sealed Version)

    "It's not just a keel and a hull and a deck and sails, that's what a ship needs. But what a ship is - what the Black Pearl really is - is freedom" Captain Jack Sparrow. And I'd like to add it is also a lot of fun! I fell in love with that ship ever since I saw it on the big screen for the first...

    Gold Version of the Black Pearl - My First Build

    Well, just opened the box tonight and inventoried everything, all seems to be in order. Removed the keel pieces and filed the edge profile on the first piece. I will try to keep track of build time in the log. I expect to be rather slow and cautious as this is my first ship build ever. I...

    Black Pearl 1:50 ZHL

    When I decided to get back into ship modeling, I looked around and got really excited about the Black Pearl. Like many I was confused by the vast array of prices and kits that all kind of looked the same but maybe not. At any rate I took a shot at one of the cheaper kits, not really expecting...
