I agree that this Kit has his Issues and so I hope, with the help of my Videos you will overcome them. Too much honor to title me as a Master , I am just an ordinary Guy who make some Videos . Thank you
I have started the bounty about 4 weeks ago, I have moved on to the first planking (about 4 every four hours). I am going to use more bog on this model than the previous 15 models I have built. I am not looking forward to the amount of dust i will make. I watch your videos from start to part 15 at least 5 times and without this help I would be in trouble John, thanks for all your help.
Hi, thank you for the video and information. I have just ordered this ship today. "Why" well I am not sure but here in Australia we have very little to chose in finding ships there must be a world shortage with Covid 19. However with the help of the videos I am sure I will complete It. Cheers, John, Hervey Bay, Australia.
Hello John , the Covid Supply Crises has affected every Country , I am here in the Philippines are also waiting since Month for new Supplies from Amati and other Brands. I am sure that you will have a lot of Fun with your Bounty Kit and with Video Guide I made you will overcome the little Issues this Kit has . Happy modeling , John
Tnx Mike, don't worry I am building Wooden Ships since my early Childhood and I think I will never lose the Interest of building how ever worst the Kit or Instructions are LOL .
your doing a great job - I enjoy your problem solving solutions - I hope the manufacturers see how you identify their mistakes and correct them for the future :-)
Since we are the Distributor of Amati here in the Philippines, you can be sure that the CEO of Amati sees all those Videos LOL . And " YES " they know about those little Problems but it will take Time to re-engineer a complete Kit. For that Reason Amati has given a Group of Modelers their Kits to make Videos , like ours. This will help all of us to find Solutions for those little Mistakes , especially for Beginners who just have started with this Hobby .
As you said, its not a model for the begginer, kit gives a challange. However it is strange for me, that Amati (the art of modelling, museum quality, bla-bla-bla) offers the kit with such issues. Anyway, your model looks great, thanks for the video.
Easy to explain , because the Bounty is one of their oldest Model . There was some changes in Managment in the Past and the current CEO has done already many new Things. I think Amati is now on the right Track but it's still a long Way to go . Without doubt the Quality is still much better, compare to other Producer who let produce in China. Thank you
Hello Gary , that is always a Question which can't be answered easy handed. First I don't know what are your Skills ! Because some People have never build a Scale Model but they have the Skills to do it, others don't have any Skills and they have to learn everything from Zero ! So my advise is in general don't buy a Kit with a complicated Hull Shape, plenty of rigging and hyper Details. If you ask me what Kit I would advise to buy from Amati; for a Beginner with Skills definitely the Hunter Q Ship because everything goes together easily and I couldn't find any mayor Issues on the Kit ! As for a Beginner with very limited or no Skills I would advise one of the First Step Collection Models , they are super nice and easy to build and the Result is looking very good even for an untrained Builder . If you need my Opinion don't hesitate to contact me . Thank you
@@floormanism thank you very much. Btw, we are now also on Patreon : www.patreon.com/davaoshipmodeller . There you can watch our Videos up to 2 Month earlier then others.
We should not judge the Model so fast, even so it has his Issues, there is nothing what a handy or experienced Modeler couldn't solve. The Bounty , and other Models are one of the oldest Model in the Selection of Amati, and I am sure that Time will come that they will check those and correct certain Problems. Nevertheless it's still a beautiful and highly detailed Model Kit which is a nice Addition for every Modeler
English instructions are missing several pages , I emailed them for digital instructions and later found the instructions that came with kit , no wonder I was confused , I emailed them on the short coming
