Recommended Posts

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

Thanks Brian and Max!  Max I'm sure you'll enjoy building the SF and it will turn out fantastic!

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.

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??

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

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.

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.
