mhmtyrl Posted December 19, 2015 Author Share #31 Posted December 19, 2015 hello every body based on the reccomendations I have made some restoration on the boat; a new layer of paint and replacement of the broken plank on the engine cover. more over, I have added some moss and sea creature formations under the water line with masking fluid and salt, later to be painted with different shades of green hope looks more sea worthy :-) mehmet Bobstrake, Tadeusz43, ggrieco and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtaylor Posted December 29, 2015 Share #35 Posted December 29, 2015 Now that is one well-used diving boat. Looks like the boats I've seen over the years where the owner would fix what's broken and then go fishing/diving. dgbot and Omega1234 2 Quote Mark "The shipwright is slow, but the wood is patient." - me Current Build: Past Builds: La Belle Poule 1765 - French Frigate from ANCRE plans - ON HOLD Triton Cross-Section NRG Hallf Hull Planking Kit HMS Sphinx 1775 - Vanguard Models - 1:64 Non-Ship Model: On hold, maybe forever: CH-53 Sikorsky - 1:48 - Revell - Completed Licorne - 1755 from Hahn Plans (Scratch) Version 2.0 (Abandoned) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaddoc Posted December 29, 2015 Share #36 Posted December 29, 2015 Great work Mehmet, you can see boats like this in the Greek islands. I enjoy walking in the harbours and occasionally you come across an old boat, dirty and run down which stands out amongst the other better maintained boats. Some have been sitting idle for years or the owner has aged and is equally run down to really care. But to be honest your boat would be the worst I ve seen! Still, amazing work. Makes you want to take it on as a restoration project! mtaylor, mhmtyrl and Omega1234 3 Quote Current projects: 21' Fisherman's Launch - plans by Howard Chapelle Completed projects: 21' Yawl Longboat - plans from the National Maritime Museum Deben 5 tonner - a Whisstock yard design 24' exploration gaff rigged ketch - a Tad Roberts design 15' knockabout sailing boat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega1234 Posted December 30, 2015 Share #37 Posted December 30, 2015 Hi Mehmet You know...it's taken me 30 years for my models to look like yours, but you've been able to do it in a matter of days! Admittedly, my RC boats have been rotting away in the garden shed for these 30 past years. One day I'll take them out and give them some attention. Seriously, though, I'm totally in awe of your weathering techniques. Marvellous.

G.L. Posted January 1, 2016 Share #39 Posted January 1, 2016 Hello Mehmet, On the last posted pictures of your model the model looks more worn out than the boat named Aksona. Although with the paint and the replacement plank, the model looks genuine and realistic. I would say: go on, just don't exaggerate.

David B actually these sponge boats used to leave the shore on around may and were at sea until october for sponging all around the Turkish coast of Aegean and Mediaterrian seas. depending on the circumtances they could get to the shore for one night or smthing. for around 6 months about 4 to 5 people were living on the same boat... a Turkish saying about spongers; "a sponge diver earns his life without a drop of sweat, and dies without a single breath" best Mehmet aykutansin, Omega1234, mtaylor and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael mott Posted February 7, 2016 Share #60 Posted February 7, 2016 Mehmet I like the detailing that you have done to give this model a well worn but maintained look, I wonder if displaying it on a piece of beach by the edge of the water would be a fitting way to display it? It seems to be more suited to that sort of display than a typical cradle.
