Algirdas Posted February 14, 2020 Share #1 Posted February 14, 2020 Hello. I'll share with you some photos of my first ship model. This is a VASA ship model from COREL. As for the ship model kit, I can say that it is a difficult ship to build. The materials in the kit are of good quality. The body details are not laser cut but are hand-cut, so some parts are crooked and need to be repaired. The drawings are difficult to understand. I would recommend this firm's kits to experienced modelers. Not much is shown in the drawings.

Ar tai nebuvo jūsų pirmasis pastatymas? Kas tau toliau? Hello fellow. This is definitely my very first ship model. I made a lot of inaccuracies in the rigging, but they are little visible. In the future I would like to produce the most sophisticated models. It can be * royal caroline * or * bonhomme richard *.

BobG Posted February 14, 2020 Share #4 Posted February 14, 2020 This might be the most impressive first ship model I've ever seen. It's amazing that you were able to do such a beautiful job building her as your first model. I know I would never have been able to do it. Congratulations!

Algirdas Posted February 16, 2020 Author Share #5 Posted February 16, 2020 Thank you. I didn't want to make my first ship simple. I wanted the ship to be beautiful and interesting to do. mtaylor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
