Steam boat in 1:24 from Russian mfg Piroscaf [COMPLETED BUILD]

[Moxis]

Hi Koreets, beautiful work indeed, both with wood & metal. I have a few questions because I have to follow your steps too in the future:
How did you make the boiler itself with all those rivets etc?
And how did you print the scales for your manometers?

 

[Koreets]

The boiler is ready.
Turning to the machine.

Hi, Moxis, thanks)

The boiler itself in the kit is plastic with high quality detailing. So the main issue is to paint it properly.

As for the scales - I ordered them from one Russian shipmodeler guy, who knows how to print them))

A wonderful multimedia kit and beautful metal works.
What is the thickness of the photoetched parts?

Cheers, Alexander

Thank, Alexander.
There are 2 photoetched sheets in the kit for different details- 0.1 and 0.15 mm.

Hello Koreets, It would be of interest of SOS members if this Russian ship modeler sells other printed material for custom orders.

Лазерная резка шпона, фанеры и пластика на заказ - форум моделистов Судомоделизм

Злые дядьки-манагеры одной конторы, начинающейся на Бу не хотят продавать шпон по листику. И ещё ехидно так похихикали над взятыми с сайта ценами :cry: Чтоб не пустым возвращаться домой взял упаковку шпона клёна толщиной 0.6 мм. Предлагаю листы шпона..

Hi Koreets,
Great looking home made fittings once again. I couldn't make out quite what the first 2 photos are of but it looks nicely made. Your pressure gauge dial looks great, I would probably need my Optivisors on to read it. Your sight gauge with isolating and drain cocks (taps) looks great as well. Keep up the great work.
Cheers,
Stephen.

Stephen, on the first two pisc are the firebox doors)))

Ok, Uwe, will write him!

 

[Moxis]

Very nice work indeed. It is a pity that I do not understand russian.

 

[Koreets]

Ok, Uwe, will write him!

He promised to sign in in SOS))

Very beautiful work in Alexander's build log with all kinds of decorations, coats of arms, plates etc. I quess he is making them by etching from thin brass plate, or maybe cutting with laser.
I would very much like to learn his method of making these, but cannot understand the language. Could it be possible that somebody (Koreets) would write a short tutorial of the methods Alexander is using in English?

 

[allricksstuff]

Sheesh! This is jaw dropping good.

Thanks Koreets. Could he give more details about his laser, like type, power, etc. It must be quite powerful unit to be able to cut metal plate.

Hi, he promised to check in in SOS forum ASAP, thus you will have the opprtunity to ask him directly))). I think the google translate may help at least to understand in general his messages in shipmodeling forum )))
