IgorSky Posted March 7, 2015 Share #1 Posted March 7, 2015 Building of Atlantic keeps its course. I decided a little to distract and try to make something of small and simple.This yacht has no name and I drew the easy drawing. Here that I managed to make today: Beat Regards!

Omega1234 Posted March 7, 2015 Share #2 Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) Hi IgorAnother project! What a nice and sleek looking hull. Really nice.If that's the bottle in the background that you'll be using? If so, then it has it's own charm and should complement the boat really nicely. Good choice!I can't wait to see your next updatesCheersPatrick Edited March 8, 2015 by Omega1234 IgorSky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IgorSky Posted March 7, 2015 Author Share #3 Posted March 7, 2015 Hi Patrick, Project? It sounds too loudly )). Yes, on a background is the bottle for model, more exact, it is a bottle of perfume of my wife. Best Regards! Igor. Omega1234 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IgorSky Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share #11 Posted March 9, 2015 Hi Carl and Mark, I am flattered with your assessment of this model, but it is rather just toy, than model. I only want to check my some thoughts and to try to execute them. I think excessive miniaturization has side effects and I was compelled considerably to simplify some details. But I tried to make the boat 3 mm long and now I understand that it is possible and that it else is necessary to change to receive the best result. Best Regards! Igor.

IgorSky Posted March 10, 2015 Author Share #16 Posted March 10, 2015 Hi Bob and Patrick, Many thanks for compliments! It isn't absolutely finished yet. I want to try to make the stopper with the rod in a bottle. I already prepared details, but I am not sure yet that I will manage to place it in a bottle. Best Regards! Igor.

Landlubber Mike Posted March 10, 2015 Share #17 Posted March 10, 2015 Very nice work Igor! I like the bottle you are using. If I did another model, I think I would stand the bottle up like you did. It makes insertion slightly trickier, but it would be much easier to add sea to the bottle I think. Great job! IgorSky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IgorSky Posted March 10, 2015 Author Share #18 Posted March 10, 2015 Hi Mike, Many thanks! Yes, I thought of the sea in this bottle. But its total volume only 5 ml, i.e. I had opportunity to add only some drops of "sea" from the art acrylic 3D gel painted in blue-green color, but I decided to postpone this question until other time )).

Landlubber Mike Posted March 10, 2015 Share #19 Posted March 10, 2015 Yes, you are certainly dealing with a small amount of volume! If you can pull off the sea, I think it would be a really nice touch to the model. For my Hannah, I tried building up the sea around the pedestal base the best I could. I wanted to make it look like the ship was sitting in the sea. It's very tricky to do that though. If there is a next model, I'm thinking of maybe using a plug to ensure the outline of the sea around the ship. I'm not sure how I would do that using the Vallejo water though. I think if I pushed the plug in, and then tried to pull it out, the material would stick to the plug and pull into the space. I probably also couldn't bake the material, as then I would never be able to remove the plug. But the Vallejo water looks beautiful once it has hardened. Something to think about if I do another ship in bottle. Omega1234 and IgorSky 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega1234 Posted March 10, 2015 Share #20 Posted March 10, 2015 Hi Mike and Igor Yep, I agree, too. Pulling off a nice representation of the sea would add a nice shot of realism to the model. But, even if this weren't possible, it'd still look really nice in the bottle resting on a stand/cradle. All the best to you both!

Omega1234 Posted March 10, 2015 Share #25 Posted March 10, 2015 (edited) Hi Igor Absolutely incredible! Now, I can really see just how TINY your ship really is!! What's next?

IgorSky Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share #26 Posted March 11, 2015 Hi all, Many thanks for likes and words of approval! Now I continue to build my model of Atlantic, but who can know that will be further... Maybe one more interesting small bottle will fall into hands to me ))) I don't know perhaps to make it even less or not. I think that the main problem not how to make the small boat. It is possible to make the boat for example 10 or 5 mm long, but it will demand absolutely small bottle and absolutely small diameter of a throat of a bottle. And in it I see the main problem.

DSiemens Posted March 12, 2015 Share #27 Posted March 12, 2015 Great work Igor. With all the glass on the bottom I think it looks like it's sailing on glass. The tiny ones are a lot of fun. IgorSky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
