Paul, I like the priming you have done. Looks very good. What color are you going to give the prop shafts. Seems like you did your homework regarding the paint. The combination of Tamiya and Vallejo seems like a good combination. What color code are you using for the underwater painting? -
The Black Swan - renamed from the Black Pearl due to license issues

Wonder if that would be HMS Interceptor? Which would make sense.

Hej Felix och Välkommen till ModelShipWorld, I am assuming your located in Sweden based on your "Shipyard". You are off to a good start with your Esperance. As for planking there is links above under NRG tab regarding planking. There are also lots of youtube tutorials to look into as well. Planking can feel a little intimidating but once you have it done and painted it will feel so much better. Lycka till och uppdatera ditt bygge. Good luck and please let us know if you have any questions.

Fiurar, I am glad to hear that you are back into your ship. HMS Victory by Corel is quite a ship to build. But this ship is a great flag ship to display at home. And it is not a cheap model to buy today. Seen prices starting at 700 dollars.

And sometimes you build something without any build log, say it is a rather fast build - or a built that has been laying around for a while that was missing some details. I can see one would upload directly to the gallery instead of creating a small and short build log. Just my two cents....

Bit of a problem! HMS Speedy, Vanguard Models
Nirvana replied to JohnEvans's topic in Masting, rigging and sails
I would use the model and create a battle diorama; the damage is there already.....🙃 -
She is a big ship, 1:200 is an impressive scale and will definitely show details. The PE details will also be easier to handle. Is she about 1300mm long?

The deck looks really nice, but if you pull your finger along the planks you will find how rough they are, this as the fibergrains has risen. Now use aluminium wool as a sander and your deck will be smooth and getting a shine.

John, I don't know for how long they have had this misprint, all the Bluenose build logs has had the same box cover and why it says solid hull is a mystery. Your Bluenose is looking very nice, mine is at a standstill. The coldness in the garage doesn't help either.

Paul, I know that the 1/350 scale version has a latitudinal dividing. Thought Trumpeter would had the with the 1/200 scale....... Okay, I will come out from the grey zone, I recently got the 1/350 scale version. That along with trumpeter small PE set, along with wood deck set and Flyhawk PE set. Your build even though a different scale will help me.

Very nice Paul! Was the hull one full unit or did it come in parts? Looking forward seeing the progress.

Chuck, now that is a very nice view from your new shop. Good luck with closing and packing everything with the reversed at your new location.

Blackfoot - no matter the material you like to build or the scale, I am happy to say

Eric, I did a quick research on the Dhow and found this link for you. History and Construction of the Dhow I don't know if you got it before, hope it can be helpful.

Eric, when I read the log name starting with Sultan lead me directly to the band Dire Straits and their song Sultans of Swing, Just like the song your start of your Sultan looks good. Does it have double planking?
