Recommended Posts

Another of my small projects. I recently have seen the photo of the model boat, which was interesting me.

I have wrote to the author of the model and he told me that this boat is a typical for Sardinia the southern Mediterranean area Andalucia.

 

A couple of weeks ago I started building the model of this boats in a bottle.

 

Best Regards!

Igor.

Hi Igor,

 

I've never watched a ship in a bottle being made before so I'll follow along if you don't mind.  :)

 

The hull looks fantastic!   

 

Cheers,

Hi Nigel,

Thanks for the compliment!

Yes of course!

This is the very simple model, but I try to use the same methods which I use in the construction of more complex models.

 

Best Regards!

Igor.

Great

New Bedford Whaleboat build. Kit by Model Shipways

 

 

I've been making progress on my model and according to the instruction booklet I should be painting it, at least parts of it.

Are acrylic's ok ? I did apply a sanding sealer. but I want to stain the untreated floor boards which are walnut.

 

Thanks

 

 

 

S.O.S.

Hi Igor,

 

Love the furled sail and the rigging as well what I believe is the anchor in your last picture.

 

Can I ask if you using a microscope do to this work? I find things hard at 1:60 scale.....can't imagine doing all this in something that fits into a bottle!

 

Cheers,

 

Nigel.

Hey Igor. Congratulation. This became a really nice ship. I am not really sure, but I think I like it most of all the ships you posted so far. The proportions, the different woods, everything fits and looks nicely. When looking at it I get into mood to stop my current project of a 1:200 Flying Cloud and build a mini boat for bottling again. Lets see. Looking forward to see yours bottled. Regards. Harry

I especially like the color of the sea, which is somehow reminiscent of a calm Mediterranean sea (turquoise/bluey green).

Yes, Patrick, that's what I tried to achieve :)

Igor,

 

That is beautiful and amazing.

 

You will have to slow down because I can't keep up with your work - it is so fast! :) :)

Thank you Jan!

In fact, I made this model for 2 weeks in times their spare of the main project. The design of this boat is very simple and it has a little parts.

 

Best Regards!

Igor.
