  1. Hi Tallshiptragic, It is beautiful ship! It reminds me the STS Sir Winston Churchill and Malkolm Miller. Best Regards! Igor.
  2. I am sure that you will achieve success. And I with pleasure will look at it. Best Regards! Igor.
  3. Hi Bob, Patrick, Matija, Nenad, Carl, Matt and all! Many thanks for compliments, Likes and good words! Best Regards! Igor.
  4. Hi Patrick, Yes, I agree. Sometimes such happens. But I try not to allow such situation at a bottle choice stage. Though, of course, it isn't possible to exclude such cases completely. But there is other problem which is more important for me. Sometimes I know as to make this or other element of my model outside of a bottle, but I can't place it in the same look in a bottle. Sometimes I think that I could do two identical models at the same time - one for a bottle, and another out off a bottle. But I still never made it ((. Best Regards! Igor.
  5. Hi Mike, Incidentally I saw this photo. I think, it can be pleasant to you too. And links with like boat - https://www.facebook.com/sailshipataraxia/info?tab=page_info Best Regards! Igor.
  6. Hi Michael, I am almost sure that if to fill in couple of drops of gasoline in this engine it will start working. Amazing work! Best Regards! Igor.
  7. Quite small progress today. I established a gunwale. Some time ago I received details for a rigging which I was going to use,but they have too small opening. I was compelled to order the new. Best Regards! Igor.
  8. OK, Mike. Only I don't know in which section of a forum it is possible to place this topic Best Regards! Igor.
  9. I found opportunity to buy some flasks - http://www.pcgroup.ru/products/kolba-ploskodonnaya-uzk-gorlovina-250-34/. My the first 2 ship in a bottle were in such flasks: Is it possible - to start new topic for discussing the questions about the bottles for SIB? Best Regards! Igor.
  10. Hi Mike, Many thanks for the compliment! It only seems as improbable. But actually to make it was simpler, than I assumed earlier. Best Regards! Igor. P.S. The idea of Colin Archer in a bottle doesn't leave me. ))
  11. Hi Mike and Daniel, I absolutely agree with Daniel. Many of my friends offer me empty bottles before throwing out them. I received some bottles from Japan. If I buy alcohol, I too pay attention to a bottle. The chemical bottle sometimes too has a good form and quality. Quite recently I opened for myself perfume's bottles . Recently I bought olive oil in very good bottle. Best Regards! Igor.
  12. Hi all, Many thanks for likes and words of approval! Now I continue to build my model of Atlantic, but who can know that will be further... Maybe one more interesting small bottle will fall into hands to me ))) I don't know perhaps to make it even less or not. I think that the main problem not how to make the small boat. It is possible to make the boat for example 10 or 5 mm long, but it will demand absolutely small bottle and absolutely small diameter of a throat of a bottle. And in it I see the main problem. Best Regards! Igor.
  13. Hi Mike, I look at the advance of your work with pleasure! What species of a tree you use for the planks of the deck? Best Regards! Igor.
  14. Mike, you can also try to use one of other sets for construction of the ship in a bottle as a basis, for example, St Maria or Catalan Ship. But I think that now you won't want to use a details from the set since you are ready to make they better.
  15. A lot of thanks, Mike, for good words! I think that you can just try something to do and almost always you will get that that you wanted. I hope to see your other models in a bottle soon. Best Regards! Igor.
  16. Hi Mike, Many thanks! Yes, I thought of the sea in this bottle. But its total volume only 5 ml, i.e. I had opportunity to add only some drops of "sea" from the art acrylic 3D gel painted in blue-green color, but I decided to postpone this question until other time )). Best Regards! Igor.
  17. Hi Mike, It is very good result of your work. I like it. I hope that there will be and other your models in a bottle. Best Regards! Igor.
  18. Hi Matija, A lot of thanks for such appreciation of my modest work! Believe, it I feel like the beginning beginner when I watch and learn at the scratch build logs of your fine models. Best Regards! Igor.
  19. Hi Bob and Patrick, Many thanks for compliments! It isn't absolutely finished yet. I want to try to make the stopper with the rod in a bottle. I already prepared details, but I am not sure yet that I will manage to place it in a bottle. Best Regards! Igor.
  20. Hi Bob, Yes, I think you have reached excellent result. I tried different methods of imitation of seams between the planks of deck, such as use of threads or paper, coloring of butts of planks, filling of seams with any hard putty.I think, each method has the advantages and shortcomings depending on scale and a species of a tree of which the planks are made. Often I used a metal plate with a sharp edge instead of an emery paper for cleaning of a surface of the deck. It allowed me to receive purer surface and accurate lines of seams. Best Regards! Igor.
  21. I still can return everything back in this moment Now I can't return it back Now it is necessary to make a stopper
