Another fine build! While I wont be building this model, the instructions almost remind me of the Cleveland model airplanes of the past (1950s-'60s along with the poorly done Dumas models of the '80s up -" here's the picture, now put it together to match"
Understandable but trust me the Instructions of the AL Mary Jeanne Kit were much more unclear. With this Billing Boats Kit I understood what to do with the Stern segment. Maybe you see a solution for the Problem by watching this Video Series and getting back to your Model, because the final result looks amazing
@davaoshipmodeller must be down to experience, or perhaps I'm misreading the drawing, but some things it tells you to glue on aren't even represented in the drawing. Thanks again. I'm excited to get going this afternoon!
I said it before, not so long time ago - you must be the king of the masking tape. No matter how much I try, it is almost impossible for me to reach the same level as you are able to. Congrats for another nice model. PS. The fly at 22:34 seems to be out of scale :)
Thank you but I don't think that I am a King of anything, at least not according to my Wife !!! LOL . Practice makes the Master as we say in Germany and tho I think that you too can achieve this Level sooner or later . Not sure what you mean by the Fly at the End of the Video !?
well I wouldn't say that the Instructions are terrible BUT very much OLD SCHOOL . I grew up with those kind of Instructions, it woke some memories of my past. But if this was your first Model I truly understand your annoyance
What do you recommend as first ship model, with sails . I have build some airplanes and some easy motor boats., But I love to learn to rigging and sails . And thanks for your inputs and your you tube channel
Well that it is a question which is not easy to answer but if I should make a wild guess , the Amati Hunter Q Ship, Pinta, Nina or Santa Maria would be a good choice . I also have many Costumer who ordered the Occre Buccaneer and Polaris . Unfortunately I haven't assembled them yet , except the Hunter Q Ship which went together like LEGO Bricks
Thank you sir for your quick answer, and thanks for sharing your knowledge and expertise with us, and for your hard work, filming and sharing your experience. Thanks a lot . Martin from Norway.
