IanJohnB Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 That is a phenomenally beautiful model - thanks for sharing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noel Smith Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 The build photos were very interesting and the painting techniques. Apart from the photo etched parts, what was actually used for the rigging? Was it very fine wire, stretched plastic spurs or something else? The kit makes up into a realistic miniature as shown in the hands of a very good modeller. Congratulations on a superb model sailing ship model.

Noel Smith Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 In my last post stretched plastic spurs should read stretched plastic sprue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the best quality rigging I have used, so easy to glue and very stable to hold its shape(because it's metal). It also gives the very natural curve effect due to its character(metal). Highly recommended! (Sorry their home page is only in Japanese.) Modelkasten rigging products Yufei 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adm Lord De Univers Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Truly stunning; the detail, painting, rigging and the wider collection - very, very jelly. I much prefer the yellow you've done to the pinkish hue they currently have on her too. I've also put my 1:700 model of this from somewhere else to one side after having purchased the artist hobby version (on sale). Now I just need to photoshop my hand onto yours to be happy with 'my' build... David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray S Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 What a stunning build. Thank you also for putting the 'how I did it' photographs on here. I had looked at this kit when it first came out, and I thought I would like to have a go at it, this intensifies that opinion. I just have to save up for it. I would also like to say what fabulous photographs they are too. All the best, Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewbacca Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 I've seen 1/100 scale VICTORYs that aren't rigged as well as that; it is extremely impressive. I take my hat off to you sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haneto Posted February 24, 2021 Author Share Posted February 24, 2021 Thank you all for your encouragement! It makes all effort and time invested so worthy! I believe modelling is like some spiritual exercise. There is simply no short cut to the final result, so it's so fair to everyone. The more you spent your time, the more suffering and struggling you felt, the more satisfied result you will get. Not an easy hobby especially in nowadays fast paced life, but it will not dissappear since the satisfaction it brings to people is simply unreplacable. Just some of my thoughts. Thank you again!

I used 0.067mm metal rigging, the glue was gell stype CA reinforced by liquid CA as well. I use extremely thin stretched plastic sprue to attach glue, by the way. Hope it could be helpful. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the 1/700 full resin kit released by Artist Hobby. I got the kit as a present from Artist Hobby boss so I tried to build it ASAP to appreciate his kindness. The kit quality is very high, I also tried to weld the 4 masts since they were all assembled by brass rods. Besides the small boats from Flyhawk, I used Northstar 1/700 sailor resin figures and Modelkasten 0.06mm metal rigging. HMS Victory just used up a whole full set of brand new metal rigging! Yes sailship rigging is indeed some nightmare... Overall I enjoyed the built and HMS Victory, the flagship forever of RN, has always been must for my RN collection and now one little dream comes true. Thanks for watching. She looks fantastic! Just started my own Victory based on the 1959 era Revell kit. I doubt it will look as good as this. Love the figures. Brings the ship to life.

Yufei Now you've explained it, it seems so easy. Hahahahahaha. Seriously, no. I wouldn't ever attempt something like this.

Yes I love to add figures on the ship and the reason is exactly what you said, to bring life to the vehicle. On 7/26/2021 at 2:26 AM, Bertie Psmith said: Now you've explained it, it seems so easy.

MRMRL Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 OMG, that is stunning (as is the rest of your RN Fleet), to think that you've produced that in 1/700 and it looks that good - mind blown. I've got aspirations to one day build the caldercraft 1/72 wooden version (if I can ever afford it), if I do and it looks half that good when built, I'll be a happy man.
