Bill97 Posted Tuesday at 10:08 PM #1 Posted Tuesday at 10:08 PM I am about to open and start my next project the OcCre 1-100 Amerigo Vespucci. You are invited to come along for my journey. I just completed the OcCre Endeavour which was my first wooden ship and was very impressed with the quality of the OcCre kit. I have no doubt the Amerigo Vespucci will only enhance my view of OcCre models. ccoyle 1 Current build: https://modelshipworld.com/topic/38262-amerigo-vespucci-by-bill97-occre-1-100/ Previous builds: modelshipworld.com/topic/36221-endeavour-by-bill97-occre-1/54-finished modelshipworld.com/topic/33097-le-soleil-royal-by-bill97-finished-heller-1100/ modelshipworld.com/topic/28748-hms-victory-by-bill97-finished-heller-1100-plastic/ modelshipworld.com/topic/26921-mayflower-by-bill97-finished-trumpeter-160-scale-plastic/ modelshipworld.com/topic/25853-english-man-o-war-by-bill97-finished-revell-196-plastic/ modelshipworld.com/topic/24612-cutty-sark-by-bill97-finished-revell-196-plastic/ models hip world.com/topic/24428-uss-constitution-by-bill97-finished-revell-plastic/
Bill97 Posted Thursday at 03:17 PM Author #2 Posted Thursday at 03:17 PM An so it begins. The unboxing, sorting, and identifying the pieces. I always enjoy this part. Looking at all this and imagining what it will all turn in to over the unpredictable amount of time I will spend with it in my ship yard. Always feels like Christmas morning. ccoyle, Scott Crouse and king derelict 3 Current build: https://modelshipworld.com/topic/38262-amerigo-vespucci-by-bill97-occre-1-100/ Previous builds: modelshipworld.com/topic/36221-endeavour-by-bill97-occre-1/54-finished modelshipworld.com/topic/33097-le-soleil-royal-by-bill97-finished-heller-1100/ modelshipworld.com/topic/28748-hms-victory-by-bill97-finished-heller-1100-plastic/ modelshipworld.com/topic/26921-mayflower-by-bill97-finished-trumpeter-160-scale-plastic/ modelshipworld.com/topic/25853-english-man-o-war-by-bill97-finished-revell-196-plastic/ modelshipworld.com/topic/24612-cutty-sark-by-bill97-finished-revell-196-plastic/ models hip world.com/topic/24428-uss-constitution-by-bill97-finished-revell-plastic/
Bill97 Posted 13 hours ago Author #3 Posted 13 hours ago And so it begins. Built the ship skeleton. The deck sections are just in place to hold everything square. Once the glue dries the deck sections will come back off for a good while. During the weeks, and maybe months, ahead the deck sections will get planking then be reinstalled. Some of the ship structures that will be on the deck will need to be built as well to determine their deck placement. Similar to the real AV I plan to outline deck structures with a different planking pattern around them.
