mhmtyrl Posted December 22, 2015 Share #1  Posted December 22, 2015 hello every body thisi is my first attempt in building a ship in bottle, the plan belong to souvenirs de marines album. actually this is a top sail schooner, for the sake of simplicity I skipped the square sails and many of the stays etc. Next time I will try to add all the rigging (if possible 🙂 mehmet wemattson, ggrieco, cecil and 9 others 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mhmtyrl Posted December 23, 2015 Author Share #3 Â Posted December 23, 2015 thank you Bob the sea bed is actually home made play-doh, my wife found a recepie from net (just google it, you may easily find), we added blue acrylic paint during steering. Â then I added the dough inside the bottle in little pieces and flattened them by tools I have made from skewers we use for barbecue :-) I can attach some photos for them too if needed. then via the tip of the skewers I made waves, not very big ones, but some are big too (so make them randomly in terms of size, but they had better follow a line-check out the wave patterns of a real sea photo) then with a white acrylic I added white to top of the waves this is how I made, I have watched nice you tube videos for this, check it out :-) Â Â mehmet Omega1234, Piet, IgorSky and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega1234 Posted December 23, 2015 Share #4  Posted December 23, 2015 Hi Mehmet  Very nice! You can't beat those types of schooners as subjects for SIB's.

JerseyCity Frankie Posted December 23, 2015 Share #8  Posted December 23, 2015 Its a very nice Ship in a Bottle! Also I love hearing from a model builder in Ankara-Türkiye! Also I will point you in the direction of this website dedicated to Ships in Bottles: http://www.bottledshipbuilder.com/ which has a lot of resources for ship in bottle builders much like this website Model Ship World. mhmtyrl and Piet 2 Quote   Quote   Niagara USS Constitution  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhmtyrl Posted December 23, 2015 Author Share #9 Â Posted December 23, 2015 thank you Andrew, I guess you'll see the rest of the fleet soon as I am so motivated by the comments :-), Frankie thanks for the resource, I registered to that site too, hope I will learn more about bottled ship building. Â I reccomend model ship building in bottle to every one; it is fantastic, so enjoyable but also very annoying at times :-) Omega1234, Piet, IgorSky and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
