Brewerpaul Posted December 28, 2020 Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 Hi-- thanks for adding me. I've been building all kinds of things for over 60 years; model planes, plastic model ships, musical instruments*, etc. I'm currently building a 1/64 Baltimore Clipper from the Pride of Baltimore II kit. I'm building it as a more generic Baltimore Clipper, leaving off all of the modern stuff like propellors,radar etc. The real Pride has a LOT of stuff on deck that would not have been on a real period ship. Much of that is for safety,which is terrific for the real ship but it makes for a much more cluttered deck than a real working Baltimore Clipper would have. I'm not a stickler for total historical accuracy, so I'll add or detract deck furniture as I see fit. I've been working on the ship's boat and am finding that I like working on a really small boat, which is what lead me to look for small scale ship models for the future. I don't know if I'd try to stuff any in bottles, but a collection of small ships of various ages would be a lot of fun. Know of any small scale sailing ship models? Thanks!

exwafoo Posted December 28, 2020 Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 Hi Paul, If you are looking for small models, have a look at these. There are some builds of these on utube as well. http://www.rodlangton.com/index.html Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
