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


Recommended Posts

Igor,

Just found your build. What a wonderfully small scale to be working in. I can only imagine how steady your hands are to be working with such small pieces, especially that launch. Keep up the good work.

Your every piece is so incredible. Your close up pictures are so full of detail. Is there any way you could include a common item(maybe a coin) so we can have a reference to how very small your pieces are? Thanks for your continued insperational attention to detail!

Hi Carl, Carl and Matt,

A lot of thanks for your words of approval and an appreciation!

Carl, I used a steering wheel from the set of the photoetched details. It is deameter 2 mm. post-17539-0-25402300-1425135442_thumb.jpg

Matt, OK, I will try to do a photo of details near a coin. You are familiar with the European coins?

Now I can report that diameter of a steering wheel of 2 mm, diameter of the basis of a binnacle of 1,5 mm. Diameter of the binnacle is 1 mm. The total height of a binnacle is 2 mm.

 

Best Regards!

Igor.

Without the ruler, I thought she was at least twice as long as she is.

Hi Carl,

The sizes of model are limited to the sizes of a bottle and in this case the length of model can't be more than 105 mm.

 

Best Regards!

Igor.

Hey Igor, once again amazing miniature details! Instead of a coin in your photo, how about one with the ship in your hand?

Hi Matt,

I will try to make such photo in next time.

But all these fine details aren't fixed on the deck therefore I am not sure.

 

Best Regards!

Igor.

Hi Patrick,

TThanks for good words!

I am not sure that I will use paint because in such scale is necessary very good paint which lays down very thin layer.

 

Best Regards!

Hi Igor,

 

photos of your work give me the feeling that I am going into the cathedral ... I feel so small.

Brilliant and beautiful.

Hi Matija,

A lot of thanks for such appreciation of my modest work!

Believe, it I feel like the beginning beginner when I watch and learn at the scratch build logs of your fine models.

 

Best Regards!

Igor.

Igor, this is really amazing work.  I can't believe that I haven't seen your logs before.  Your techniques would have come in really handy when I was working on my Hannah ship-in-bottle.

 

The details you are adding really make for a special model.  And to think this is all at 1:600 scale, wow!  

Mike

A lot of thanks, Mike, for good words!

I think that you can just try something to do and almost always you will get that that you wanted.

I hope to see your other models in a bottle soon.

Best Regards!

Igor.

After seeing your models, I think I'm inspired to try them out again.  Take care my friend, I'll keep a look out for your updates.

Mike

Mike, you can also try to use one of other sets for construction of the ship in a bottle as a basis, for example, St Maria or Catalan Ship. But I think that now you won't want to use a details from the set since you are ready to make they better.

Great work Igor.  I especially like your planking and metal work.  I look forward to seeing the progress on this build.

Quite small progress today.

I established a gunwale.

 

Some time ago I received details for a rigging which I was going to use,but they have too small opening. I was compelled to order the new.
