Anja reacted to mtbediz in Santa Maria by mtbediz - FINISHED - handmade kit by a friend
Forecastle fence is in progress. This handmade kit originally includes those laths in following picture but i decided not to use them and i am making fence instead because i have seen a lot of Santa Maria ship model on the internet and most of them were with fence. I think it will look better.

Hull planking has been finally completed it took more than 2 months because besides i had limited time to work on, i only used white carpenter glue (needed to wait for drying of glue) and the widht of the strips were only 3 mm which means i had to prepare (cutting, tapering, soaking, bending) a lot of strips before install them. Time to go up to the deck now

Anja reacted to Dylanmserra in Possibly interesting find by an utter newbie
Two days ago I was helping my buddy clean out his late grandparents marina, loads of nautical gear either rotted beyond repair or so outdated it won't ever be used again, but that's besides the point. We were inside the house when I found this model, and I asked his mother about it and she said I could just have it, didn't know anything about it, and I have no clue about what it is, the rigging was shot completely and there is damage, most of all She's just dirty, was hoping someone has some sort of clue what She is before I begin restoring her myself. The Sails are stiff and rotted which is a shame.

I would be excited to recover something like this. It has memories and craftsmanship. I'd want to check around to see if there are conservors who may be able to help. Please keep us informed.

Anja reacted to ccoyle in Here's an odd one...
Well, I know of several ship modeling forums that have met their demise over the years, but ours isn't one of them, though we have survived one major server crash and several software upgrades. I can also assure you that we are quite serious about modeling and welcome all kinds of builds of whatever subject and in whatever medium. Small craft, work boats, inshore vessels -- they're all good.
