GLAD TIDINGS 1937 by shipphotographer.com - FINISHED - Model Shipways - Scale 1:24 - Pinky Schooner - just a christmas present


Recommended Posts

The most important thing for the preservation of the model is a glass housing for its permanent residence: a DISPLAY CASE. It should compliment the model - be like an extension of it, like a frame for a painting. At the same time it ought not clamp the ship and draw the attention away from it. The most important function of the DISPLAY CASE, however, is to protect the model from dust and changes in humidity.

I offer you MY VERSION OF MAKING A DISPLAY CASE from ready-made maple and pine wood blanks, which can be purchased at any hardware store:

GOLD MEDAL and first place!
The pinky schooner GLAD TIDINGS (1937) won the 2021 Ukrainian Ship Modeling Championship in her class С-8. I scored more than 96 points and finally became a "Master of Sports"!)))
I fulfill this standard for the second time with a quorum of models but it is the first time after NAVIGA officially included C-8 as a class))))815629319_ScreenShot2021-04-19at11_10_29AM.thumb.png.bf5d9ba292977a948ceb692877916754.png1460181118_ScreenShot2021-04-19at11_12_42AM.thumb.png.3a7f34817fe9c363d159739a3c868fb8.png

Olga, yes, congratulations indeed! Well done and to think we got to watch her being built here in MSW, what a treat.

How to improve the model through quality ropes. 
You spent a lot of time building a model, 
isn't it worth buying quality ropes or a ropewalk for making them?!
