  1. I am so curious, where did you get the plastic hardware? The deadeyes, blocks, and pins for the pinracks or whatever. I've been following this build as I build my own corsair, since this is the only single detailed build log for this ship I've found AT ALL lol so thank you tremendously for uploading this.
  2. I would happily do this! Is there an easy way to do it? Do I just make a thread with pictures and/or videos of my progress? Or do you mean on youtube or something? Apologies for the amateur questions lol I truly am a novice among masters here. Currently, I have a few pictures of the build so far, but knowing I could make a timeline for the model I'll begin taking more pictures of my process. My totally untrained, outside thinking, probably wrong but it works process haha.
  3. Just want to thank everyone for your amazing support and information in answering my questions. I did indeed figure out what all the materials are and which woods are which. I've got the bulkheads glued up to the hull structure and am well on my way to getting this awesome model started! Can't wait to continue this project, and I'll certainly be back if I have any more questions. Thanks again, much appreciated!!
  4. Thank you both so much for your input. I've flipped through the parts list and all the different types of woods mentioned are "Sycamore, Sapelli, Lime Wood, African Walnut, and Madera. I will check the wood database for all of these after I reply! Also for Barkeater, I'm going to include some close up pictures as clear as possible so you might even be able to place a name to some of these. As always, the phone cameras dilute the colors so just remember they're much more saturated in person lol. Thank you again!
  5. Hello everyone, I'm currently building the OcCre model Corsair (1:80 scale) and it's my first ever super detailed model ship. I've been a huge fan of building dioramas and crafting terrain/monsters/miscellaneous things for my D&D group, and also I've been quite handy in assembling all types of kits from Tamiya, Revell, Trumpeter, etc. Being new to wooden plank on bulkhead models, I'm having a hard time finding anything about the identification of the types of woods generally used in these model kits. I've included a couple pictures of the wood that was in the Corsair kit and a picture of one of the pages in the IP manual/parts list. Unfortunately (or fortunately, I don't really know yet lol), the parts list doesn't include a list of how many of each type of wood was included with the kit, rather a cut list for each individual piece to be assembled. In the right column it states what type of wood to use for each particular piece but that's where I'm stumped. I don't have any idea what is what, and to make things worse there are multiple different colors/types of wood with the same dimensions. The only thing I've found online really is that most types of wood commonly used in these kits can vary wildly in color and texture, and that sucks lol. My main concern is just that I use the wrong type of wood for a particular series of parts and then later on in the build find out that I've ran out of a specific kind of material and get stuck. If anyone has built the OcCre Corsair, or can help me identify what the woods are that were included in this kit, I'd be forever grateful for your help in figuring this out. Thanks to anyone who has read this, have a good day! Cheers, and take care <3.
