Ships

    Another milestone of creation. It is fascinating moment when virtual model becomes a real object. Now I have to put together all these elements. It’s a long way to Tipperary, but in the end, not that long as two weeks ago 😉

    Regardless the hudge problems with the latest WordPress version, which cost lots of my time and nerves, and sometimes makes impossible to update the site, I am trying to work on the next projects. I was mentioning last year about the pre war Tramps – they are almost done in 3D. Besides them, I am preparing a 3D model of a tiny steamship, which […]

    Polish “Smok” (Dragon) – finished and under white and red ensign. Wash looks much better in natural light. Probably Kriegsmarine’s „Rixhöft” overlook and colour was the same. Some of the rigging elements are made of photo-eched elements. They look a bit too heavy. Maybe in the future I will change them.

    Short photo relation from my workshop. “Achilleas” is fixed to the plasticine handle.  It’s ugly but useful way to finnish the model. The railings and other metal stuff is glued to the body. Now it’s time to wash the ship and to add the masts and rigging. Did I mentioned I hate this 😉

    After a short brake I am returning to 1/700 ships. You may find some pictures of two Polish ships – “Nurek” (Diver) and “Smok” (Dragon). They are assembled abd painted. I fixed the colours with a thin coat of gloss varnish. I must add the stairs on the tug, wash the surfaces and add the rigging.

  • Before I finished the pair “Pionier/Njord” I suddenly realized how strange this ship were. With the hudge bow, and the missing aft. But as I started to add the railings and the whole rigging the shape of the ship became even cute. Tommorow I am starting to finish three coasters from Westerbroek 🙂

    Yesterday I put basic colours on “Achilles” and “Pionier I”. Today for the firs time I put the dacal with the name of the port, which is a very special place for me. I wonder if anyone made a ship based in Gdynia in 1/700 scale. I placed the whole decal set on Achilles. So far I am very happy with the result. […]

    The last stage of work. After adding some washes from AK I covered the whole model with a coat of clear matt Humbrol varnish. Than I used my own hair to made the rigging. Fortunately I’m not bald or gray haired so I’ve got a lot of good stuff for the future 🙂 As an ensign I used a small piece of polystyrene […]

    This afternoon I spent on preparing “Pionier I” and “Njord” for future painting. One of the most important elements for this models are the photo-etched parts over the bridges. By the way I placed the masts in their holes, and prepared the second tug, this time “Leopold” for painting. To be honest, my skills as far as photo-etched parts are concerned, are average, […]

  • It seems this naval projects takes forever 😉 Next stage. Yesterday I shaped the steel elements and photo-etched stuff for Polish “Smok” (Dragon) and “Nurek” (Diver) ships. Last time I made a ship in 1/700scale was about two years ago, so I am a bit out of practice, but I believe my skills come back. Today both ships are going to be painted. […]
