Welcome to Model Ship World Rick. YouTube has many videos on building the OcCre Polaris which may be of some help. I hope you start a build log on your model so that we may follow your progress.

Spitfire MK I by Danstream - Tamiya - 1/48 - PLASTIC
Ryland Craze replied to Danstream's topic in Completed non-ship models
Beautiful model. The finish is excellent, nothing over done. I admire the skills of the plastic modelers on MSW. -
I was a huge NASCAR fan back in the 60's. I still have my autograph book with many of the drivers from 1961 to 1963. I got their autograph when they would come to the old Richmond Fairgrounds Raceway 1/2 mile dirt track. They used to let us cross over the track after the race and we would be able to talk to the drivers and crews. I do hope you order some after market decals and make a representation of one of the cars from that era. The Wood Brothers, Junior Johnson and many other teams fielded these cars. Maybe even do an independent like Wendell Scott. Lot of choices. I also got to see my first Daytona race in 2017. Wish I had attended back in the 70's to see my favorites.

Planking can be a slow process, but taking your time will give good results. The compound twists and turns are always tricky to do.

Welcome to Model Ship World Jose. We have many builders of plastic ship models on MSW. They build some outstanding models and you will learn a lot from them by following their build logs. We look forward to seeing your work.

Your Syren is looking good. I like the red you are using. Is this artist acrylic paint?

Busy Box for my baby's birthday by michael101 - WOOD
Ryland Craze replied to michael101's topic in Completed non-ship models
Nice job. What a wonderful birthday gift. Your baby is one lucky child. -
Mark, You are off to a good start on your Longboat. This looks like a nice kit with good fittings and instructions. Planking can be a very enjoyable part of the build.
-
The first plank is looking good. I use a bit of water painted on the plank and the iron will turn it to steam which will help to loosen the wood fibers. Your deck also came out great. I think the stain color is ideal for this type of ship.
-
Your hull is looking good. Another thing you could do is to coat the inside of the hull with wood glue where the planks did not end on a bulkhead.
-
Congratulations on finishing this fine model. Thanks for the detailed build log. This will aid future builders of this model. The photos turned out really great. I hope you add them to the Gallery for all to see.

I like the color combination and also the red oak stain. I am a big fan of Minwax Wipe on Poly clear satin finish when I want to put a clear coat over the unpainted or stained portions of a build.

I can see that your Longboat is going to turn out to be a beauty. The color is excellent as well as your craftsmanship. Chapter four will be a fun one and I am looking forward to seeing your progress.

Hi Captain, Your Bluenose is coming along nicely. I also use diluted wood glue and it has always worked for me. The simulated caulking will have the right effect once you sand down the deck and apply a finish over it. I like Wipe On Poly clear satin as it puts a thin protective coat over the planks. It is also good to use to finish unpainted deck fixtures. It really brings out the wood and does not give it the heavy look. I look forward to seeing your progress on this build.

Congratulations on finishing your Albatros. You did a great job on your first ship model and I am sure that you learned a lot of new techniques and skills.
-
John, You are off to a good start on your Bluenose. I can see that you have done your kit building research well. You are using construction techniques not normally seen by beginner ship modelers. I am looking forward to seeing more progress on your build.
