ATLANTIC by IgorSky - FINISHED - 1/600 Scale - BOTTLE - three-masted schooner

[mattsayers148]

Beautiful as always Igor! Thanks for the photo with the ship in hand, it really shows how tiny everything is. It makes me appreciate how skilled you are.

Hi Igor

 

Very nicely done. The cap rail really sets the hull off nicely.

 

One question though. It must be hard to find the right kind of bottle for your models. When you finally find one, have you ever gotten to a point where you think the glass distorts the view too much and decide that it'd be better not to put it in a bottle at all?

 

I'm just curious in case I ever decide to do a SIB one day.

 

Cheers

_{Take three pieces of wood.  Put them together.  Carve them.  Take them apart.  Paint them. Put them together again.  That alone is great but then adding the stanchions and rails. . . Wow!  Now I don’t know what to say.}

Hi Patrick,

Yes, I agree. Sometimes such happens. But I try not to allow such situation at a bottle choice stage. Though, of course, it isn't possible to exclude such cases completely. But there is other problem which is more important for me. Sometimes I know as to make this or other element of my model outside of a bottle, but I can't place it in the same look in a bottle.

Sometimes I think that I could do two identical models at the same time - one for a bottle, and another out off a bottle.

But I still never made it ((.

 

Best Regards!

Igor.

Hi Igor

 

Thanks. I think you've hit the nail on the donkey right there! I've often thought the same thing. Put it in a bottle and it'll look great...but, at the same time, I like to hold the model in my hand, touch it, feel it and show it to people. If it's in a bottle, of course, that can't be easily done. Oh well can't have it both ways, I guess.

 

One day, though, I'd still like to give it a go.

 

Cheers

I am sure that you will achieve success. And I with pleasure will look at it.

 

Best Regards!

[Tallshiptragic]

Absolutely awesome work there igor! I don't think I could ever manage the detail you do at this size. Brilliant

[IgorSky]

Hi tallshiptragic,

 

I think that you can simply try and you will see that it isn't so difficult as it seems at first sight.

Your model of the STS seems not less amazing for me.

Best Regards!

Igor.

[Tallshiptragic]

Thanks Igor, I may have to take you up on that! Such a cool desktop idea

[riverboat]

Wow!! ... that is some really nice work!!!

Hi Lawrence,

Many thanks for words of approval of my work.

I think that ATLANTIC will reach a bottle enough not soon. Yesterday I made the third deck house and started trying to do the anchor winch. Railings too are some problem for me.

 

Best Regards!

Igor.

[IgorSky]

Hi everyone,

Many thanks for constant interest in my work and support.

 

Today the third deck house and the anchor winch are finished.

 

Best Regards!

Igor.

[Omega1234]

Igor! I take my hat off to you. That's a masterful job you've done there.

 

Wel done.

 

Cheers

Wunderbar Igor,

Even at that size it is recognisable ...

[cwboland]

Great job on the metal work. Looks like it could work at that tiny scale.

[mikegerber]

... It is hard to believe what I see! - great job Igor! 

 

Best regards!

I thought I can make small stuf. You made me to hide in a dog house.

 

Fascinating !!!

[dgbot]

My eyes my eyes how can you work on something that small..

[Dimitris71]

Hi Igor, just saw your build log. Amazing and beautiful, beautiful work. One question though, how can you see such a small parts? lol . I cannot even see the small parts of my build.Congrats. I will follow with interest.

 

Kind Regards

Hi Frank, Lawrence, Anton, Nils, Carl, Mike, Carl, Nenad, Dimitris, Patrick, David and all and everything who presses the button Like!

Many thanks for words of approval and support!

 

As Patrick told (and I agree with him) - Why do we do them? I guess, because if we never tried to do them, we'd be forever wondering if it was possible to make them.

 

I simply try something to make and sometimes it turns out possible to do. I use the glasses and sometimes the magnifying glass - I will show in the evening of a photo.

 

Best Regards!

Igor.

[IgorSky]

Hi everyone,

Yesterday I bought one more set of files. They it is a little better than what I had earlier.

Today I tried them in work. By Patrick's example I decided to make winches on the deck.

Best Regards!

Igor.

[Omega1234]

Hi Igor

 

Very, very nice and very precise!!! They're going to look great on your Atlantic.

 

Look forward to seeing the next update, when they're all installed.

 

 

 

Cheers

 

Patrick

[IgorSky]

Thanks Patrick,

Railings... This is my main task now. I hope that tomorrow I will be able to make them.

 

Best Regards!

Igor.

[IgorSky]

So, railings... In the morning I made it for the right side. I pasted racks of the wire with a diameter of 0,15 mm to the PE detail.

 

Best Regards!

Igor.
