IgorSky Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) Hi everyone! I think some of the members of our forum have seen the process of building this model on FB or forum MSW. But perhaps someone will be interesting to see this process here too. So, some time ago my friends gave me the empty perfume flacon with a quite unusual shape. Form of this bottle interested for me, and it also dictated the choice of the future of content - a collective image of the J-class yachts. The yacht Endeavour was taken as prototype.

IgorSky Posted February 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 As usual, I am starting with making of the hull. The hull will consist of two parts. I was started with making the upper part. First I made the basis of this part from the pear. IOAN, John Zuch and JesseLee 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IgorSky Posted February 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 So, I once again checked all the details, I fixed some parts of the rigging and I prepared the lower part of the hull for the placing in the bottle.

IgorSky Posted February 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 And ... it's still happened ... It was a sad moment when I discovered a crack in one of the corners of the bottle. (( Resin really strongly have reduced its volume. I think there are two reasons for this failure - I filled the heated resin and I added too much hardener. (( This incident forced me to make adjustments to my plan of action. I had planned to put the model into the bottle, close the bottle the cork and on this to stop. But now I have to make a stand and come up with something for concealing and fixing crack. Chasseur, IOAN, John Zuch and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
