From keel to deck - part 01 of building the HMS TERROR from Occre

The fact you have the patience to build this advanced ship model and film it in stop motion as you build it is mind blowing. Wonderful.

[@4THECRAFT]

I have built many wooden ship models, plastic and metal models and I can say that Building a wooden ship model is one of the hardest builds for a modeler. For example in certain big kits ( like the hms victory) once you have finished the hull you still have 60% of the work left to do. You are a Master builder my friend and I look forward to watch the next episodes of this wonderful ship.

[@TomGrigat]

Thanks for your kind words 😊

[@iulian4ik]

Building a ship model by itself is hard. Making it look this beautiful in a stop motion animation is just a whole new level. I don't even imagine how much patience you have :) You have my utmost respect!

[@John_Sharrock]

Absolutely amazing! I can't even compute how you do it,or the skill,patience,and time involved... Mind=blown!

[@TomGrigat]

[@KimAbraham]

What can I say. Very interesting choice of model; I just looked up the horrifying back story. A piece of history worth remembering. The amount of detail in the build is simply stunning, it will surely be worthy as a museum piece once it's finished. The animation, lighting and photography is out of this world. I don't know how you do it and I can't even imagine how much work went into this. Kudos also for the soundtrack. I absolutely loved it. Thank you.

[@racerx660]

Your build leaves me in awe. I've learnt more watching this build than watching many, many other channels. I've been building plastic for years and I'm slowly moving into wooden ship kits because of the challenge and pleasure of working with wood but this has taught me so much, I'm deeply grateful of the way you share your skills and new ways of building that I've never seen before. Thank you sir, and, as always, I look forward to your next masterclass.

[@TomGrigat]

I'm pleased to hear you like my work. I felt the same like you regarding the plastic and wood modelling. There will be a lot plastic kit animations as well though...

[@greggrace967]

Has the BBC checked your licensing or should I call them? Lol. ( I'm not sure exactly what that's about but have watched a couple of vids on u tube about it because it piqued my curiosity. Seems intrusive and maddening. Ah the gov. what would we do without them?? Haha.)

[@greggrace967]

I am assuming your in the U.K. but that's kind of dense of me. I can watch it in the U.S. of course. Soo if you are in fact not. Disregard all my nonsense.

[@PurpleTT99]

@@greggrace967 I am in the UK Greg and I pay the Licence Fee! The BBC series is a re-imagining of the events, precious little historical accuracy sadly so if you do watch it, prepare for a flight of fantasy, not an educational documentary.

[@cchristner]

By itself, the model is a brilliant piece of art! But the stop motion animation is magical. Well done!

[@666chew]

Fantastic 1st installment of more to come. Love the sound of the breaking ice along with the moody music. It looks so real I can't imagine myself ever taking part on a voyage back in those days. What they had to work with would scare most today. I'd stay on land all of my life, or least away from the ice.

Brilliant. This was my lockdown 1 project in April last year (I’m in the UK). Watching your video, I can’t believe I actually did it. It’s a wonderful model and a wonderful/tragic story. In April this year, I flew over the site of the wrecks of Terror and Erebus in Arctic Canada. Well done, and thanks for this superb film - it serves as a reminder of those long days when we weren’t allowed out last year. I’m looking forward to seeing your rigging!

Beautiful ship, beautiful model and a Tragic Tale. Amundsen beat us to it again and again apparently

[@smudgey1kenobey]

I’m new to ship modeling but have an old kit from the 1970s. This helps so much. It gives me the sequence of the build, details not shown in the plans, tips on how I can improve the model with extra add ons. I’m grateful for your artistry and patience. I hope you’ve had a lot of fun during the creative process. I’m retired now, but used to do museum exhibits. This would be a great addition to a maritime museum’s display if you would ever be interested. The Peabody museum north of Boston comes to mind, or the Lake Champlain museum in Vergennes, Vermont, or Mystic Seaport in CT. So many others. Inspiring work!

[@Nosttromo]

My man isnt satisfied with only building a wooden ship, but he also stopmotions its building stages. That's on another level

[@leoatreides1]

This is insane! I guess the stop motion part was even more work than building the model was. And it really makes you apretiate how sturdy those two ships were build back in the days!

[@mkorkala]

Your work is simply outstanding in many ways. Your craftsmanship is world class and the way you present it is simply art, very sophisticated art I would say. I can only imagine how much dedication and hard work you have invested to perfect your skills. Wonderful! What makes this video even more interesting is that you are building a ship model from OcCre. Not long ago, I was introduced to their models by another modeler, and that provoced my interest. Therefore, I decided to build my first wooden ship model myself. Polaris from OcCre. Since it's been quite a while since I've build any models, the build is going to be very interesting, challenging, frustrating and educating experience! But it will be a start, and starting something is in my experience one of the most important steps in everything.
