BrankoSNY Posted October 2, 2021 Share #1 Posted October 2, 2021 Hello everyone! Some time ago I was asked by a member from a group to do a video on how to make railings for model ships from scratch. I have made part one of this. I have listened to the feedback from the last videos and have changed how I record and edit my videos. So please take a look and let me know how I am doing or if you have any comments about the railings. As always if you guys want me to cover a particular aspect of building from scratch please let me know and I will try to oblige. Have a great day! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kv3NLJpDjcc&list=PL5g6B09m0wL3EOzxDgJNi9-IqQeWs-rMM&index=2&ab_channel=BrankoStipanovic Keith Black, mtaylor and BobG 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrankoSNY Posted October 9, 2021 Author Share #2 Posted October 9, 2021 Hello, this is part Two of my video on how to make Railings from scratch. Today we spray. The railings are now made and we need to match them to the colour of the ship we are building, in this case the Russian Cruiser, Aurora. I have been doing this since I was very young, you don't need a workshop, simply a small place to work and your tools, my first " workshop was my Mother Maria's kitchen table. Use whatever space you have available to you to follow your passion, increase your knowledge and sharpen your skills. In order to spray the railings, I need them to be upright, not flat on a surface, as I need to spray both sides. To achieve this, I have welded legs onto the railings, these will also be used to secure them to the ship, and I have a sturdy wooden block, with tiny holes drilled the exact size of the rail structure. Once we have slotted the wire structure into the block, prepare your paint, today I am using spray paint, the same grey as the hull of the ship. With even strokes or movements, spray your rail, then turn it around and spray the other side in the same fashion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXZ1VgplQXU&list=PL5g6B09m0wL3EOzxDgJNi9-IqQeWs-rMM&index=4&ab_channel=BrankoStipanovic BobG 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrankoSNY Posted October 16, 2021 Author Share #4 Posted October 16, 2021 Hello, this is final part of my video on how to make Railings from scratch. Now that the railings we made are completely dry, they are ready to be added to our ship. You will notice that the railings were sprayed with the same grey color as the rest of The Aurora cruiser, this gives a nice clean, sleek aesthetic. Tell me in the comments about your projects and how they are progressing, or feel free to ask me any questions you might have. As always, good luck and see you in the next video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4LU35-39Tus&list=PL5g6B09m0wL3EOzxDgJNi9-IqQeWs-rMM&index=3&ab_channel=BrankoStipanovic mtaylor and Canute 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
