maggsl_01 Posted October 13, 2014 #62 Posted October 13, 2014 Hi Testazyk, the more I see the more I wish to buy this kit. Doing my Caroline gives me the hope to get along with the San Felipe (not as next model but in a not so far future ) Very nice and impressing model what you built Cheerio Max Quote Next: Friedrich Wilhelm zu Pferde by Euro Model 1:47 Finished: Half Moon Corel; HMY Royal Caroline Panart; HMB Endeavour Occre 1:54; Fregatte Berlin, Corel, 1:40 A life without dogs is possible... but worth to live?
testazyk Posted October 13, 2014 Author #63 Posted October 13, 2014 Thanks Brian and Max! Max I'm sure you'll enjoy building the SF and it will turn out fantastic!

testazyk Posted October 13, 2014 Author #64 Posted October 13, 2014 (edited) Now that everything was finished it was time for a (sort of) maiden voyage. I took the ship out to the upstairs patio on a sunny day and took some pictures. If you use your imagination, it actually looks like a real ship. I want to thank everyone who had a look at this log and added their very kind comments. I hope I've been able to provide some useful information and wish you all the best with your modelling efforts.

cwboland Posted October 13, 2014 #65 Posted October 13, 2014 Testazyk, where are all the big beautiful sails? JK. She looks great the way she is. Quote Carl Completed builds: AL Bluenose II 1:75 Gallery Amati Hannah SIB 1:300 Gallery Current Build: Bluenose II - SIB - unknown scale
testazyk Posted October 14, 2014 Author #66 Posted October 14, 2014 Thanks Carl! I haven't put sails on any of my builds (except the Chinese Junk) because I like the look of no sails. Maybe for my next build??

Wombat Posted October 15, 2014 #69 Posted October 15, 2014 Hello Testazyk Great build and very helpful as I am currently about to start with the ornamentation to the hull. I have just finish the first side bow block shaping ( wow that a challenge from the block provided ) and when the other side is complete it's time for the decoration. My kit is an early version as I' ve had it a long time . Maybe if it justify it I will post my first picture, but it will need to look good to compare with yours. Regards Wombat Quote
testazyk Posted October 15, 2014 Author #70 Posted October 15, 2014 Thank you very much Kenny! I've had my eye on the Wasa for a while but already have a bit of a backlog with the Soleil Royal and Sovereign of the Seas. You will really enjoy the San Felipe.

testazyk Posted October 15, 2014 Author #71 Posted October 15, 2014 Thanks Wombat--Yes know what you mean about shaping those blocks. My kit was an old one too that predated laser cutting and everything so the early stages were very labour intensive. I hope you have as much fun and satisfaction with your build as I did and I look forward to seeing some pictures.
