I am absolutely a modern ship fan, but the Victory is a beautiful ship, so I finally checked out your thread. Well:
times a billion! This is one most detailed shipmodels I've seen in ANY Scale. You have the patience of a saint! And the skill of....a very skilled person!!
absolutely insane detail!! What scale is this again?
Do feel like building 60 1/350 aircraft ? I don't know how to hook up the hydraulic systems or to change the bulbs in the navigation lights in that scale, and it looks like it would be a breeze for you:big_grin:
AMAZING, sir!! You and Nicolas are something else!
Cheers: Laci

Actually those old steps were "historic" parts: the first details beyond oob
Mark one still with Humbrol Colors.
At a later stage the supports underneath were added, but still - the base was too thick for my liking.
The "Mark One" Steps were stuck on the hull, UHU-Plast flooded into the gap in the back, and thick paint to cover it up. Worked well as it stayed on the ship for more than 10 years
For some reasons did not work this time ...
But I better spare you THOSE Pictures. So pulled down the paint again - was easy as it was to thick and come down like a rubber coat.
Instead of the usual car filler I lately use the 2 component sculpting masses. More time to work with and being able to place it properly and still form it to the wanted effect.
My favourite is Apoxie Sculpt, a small saussage of 0,3 mm placed on the gap ...
... and squeezed in with a moistened wooden stick, moulded and already taken out the surplus material.
After drying the fine tuning ...
... with some sanding paper glued onto an old blade
Also easy to fit other places ...
... like a small blister on the edge of the cast of the canopy. Also works for the steps. After modelling I just lift it up from its place and add some CA underneath with the help of a toothpick, like this it wont come of while sanding to form.

To finish the support columns, I pressed it against a piece of wood, so they were more easy to handle. Placing it on a thin acrylic and using a sanding block, one can achieve very accurate angles.
The black primer and developing the tendril, first the main body, the the blossoms. As I have more control with normal paint than with the metallic paints, I like to put a layer of ochre underneath.
Then some Humbrol gold and same Warcraft gold, to accentuate with some reddish shines, plus a tad of black ink where necessary.
In the meantime I refined the port, giving it a step like the gun ports to give a stop for the lids.
Then gave the roof a aluminum foil from Hasegawa, splashed a mixture of ink, white and detergent onto it ...
... and here we are ...
OK, the guys from the tin roof have to come for some touch ups, but otherwise I am quite happy
Cheers, Daniel

Let me tell you a story ...
... it started with a funny idea ...
... we should meet again ...
... oh yes sure ...
... where? Augsburg would be a nice cosy place, its in the middle of everybody from the south of Germany, half way between Munich and Ulm. Let�s take March, the 8th, good with the holidays.
"Who�s gonna come?"
Me-me-me-me ...
... oh, nice, we won�t be alone ...
...-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me...
... great the place will be full ...
...-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-perhaps-me-me-me-me-me-me...
... slight worries about the size of the venue are appearing ...
...-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me...
... so until now there are 57 (fifty seven) confirmations plus 1 perhaps !!!
So by tomorrow Lunchtime we will meet for our "small" gathering:
https://www.google.de/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=m9Y ... us+am+lech
Do not know yet how to fit everybody plus the models.
Models?!?
Did anybody think about the space for the models ?!? There will be more than 20 models present!
And among will be (only MSW Members mentioned, please excuse if I missed anybody)
- Tarjack and his Royal Caroline 1749 in bone and a dockyard cross cut model of an engl. 74
- schiffebastler with Amerigo Vespucci
- dafi with his small little round one with the black and ochre lines that make appearance slim
- Woodpecker with his spanish schebeck 1:50
- Achilles with HMS Queen Charlotte 1790 1:48
- Rack with fregate Thetis
- Alexander with his HMS Sphynx, modell and plans, plus plans HMS Anson
- Archjofo La Creole 1:48
- AVBiker Sovereign of the Seas
... and many others.
WOW-WOW-WOW
Everybody is already starting to get very nervous.
A feeling almost like Christmas
We will keep you posted

No, this is no broadside ...
... nor fire alarm ...
... only ...
... one of the easiest ways to prevent things falling inside of the ship. Cheap, easily placed, easily taken out without danger for paint or flimsy details

Excellent--the show looked to have some high quality models....
I am envious-- as I have been over-run with 1/1 scale work and have hardly been in my modelroom....
