schooner Posted May 16, 2015 Share #94 Posted May 16, 2015 I just discovered this log. Amazing build! I love the way you made the cage masts, winches, guns, well ... everything in fact! What is the cased ship model that appears in the background of some of your photos? Keep up the great work.

Panagiotis Posted June 11, 2015 Author Share #96 Posted June 11, 2015 (edited) Hi all. Secondary weapons….The last difficult build… There were 12 x 3-inch guns on the real ship, from which 8 were being exposed at the superstructure, while only the rest 4, were being covered… At first I had to build their stands at a truncated cone shape with an extension at the rear. Those stands were made by gluing seven small pieces of plastic. In a second try was constructed the body of the gun with the barrel. The barrels were bought from the market. They were barrels for 6 inc gun in 1:200 scale, which perfectly matched as barrels for 3 inc gun in scale of 1:100 (as the model). The rest of the parts were made by pieces of plastic 12 for each gun… The result... ... What has left for the model to be finished, is only details here and there and certainly a test in the water… I’ll be back with the results, hopefully good.

There's so many things to look at, that I don't know where to start! The more I look at your photos, the more details start popping up! Amazing and marvellous. Look forward to more updates.

Panagiotis Posted October 28, 2015 Author Share #103 Posted October 28, 2015 Hi all mates. Thank you for being here all this time but unfortunately I'm not coming back with a test in the water. I spent summer with family and grandchildren and by the time the model was ready, the winter had already started. I don't know when a good day will let me see my model in the water but I promise you'll be just the next ones who will join my joy. For now I post some photos of the completed model and from my participation in an exhibition.

Omega1234 Posted October 28, 2015 Share #105 Posted October 28, 2015 Hi Panagiotis Marvellous work and congratulations on a truly beautiful model. You've got to be really chuffed with it! I'd also imagine that your ship generated a fair bit of interest during the exhibition, especially seeing as it's a Greek warship. Additionally, like you, I'm keen to see the water shots, so, hopefully it'll be a quick winter. All the best!

Panagiotis Posted December 16, 2015 Author Share #115 Posted December 16, 2015 Dear all. I feel the need to ask for your apologies because, although your wide acceptance and your kind words on my models, I can't be as much I would like in touch with you. You see I can speak and write only in German and I feel bad unable to respond direct and in personal on your comments, besides I might present myself at least as snob on other mates' models... So, I'm here, I watch and admire your models but I have to rely on the help of my good friend Thanasis to write you in English.
