Young lady,you truly a master model builder.I very much enjoy watching you work with the models you build!!!

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you very much!

[@tommyherbert3931]

My first time watching your video. You are throughly blessed with patience on building these ships. I am enjoying seeing you work.

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you very much!

[@barriewright2857]

Same just a artist at work.

[@davidrasch3082]

This is the sixth time I watched this video. The kit is now acclimated to Minnesota so I start the build. BTW, MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR🎄✝...

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

I'm glad to hear it! And happy holidays to you too!

[@bienenschulze1]

…it looks so easy…. 👌🏽

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you)))

[@brianmcdonald3831]

So liking the build I have a few model ships I haven’t had time to do anymore work on or even start so I like watching videos from those who like doing what I do

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

I also turn on the channels of other modelers when I work in the workshop - it looks not so lonely)))

[@pascallebon2367]

Encore un model en route😜 💪💪. Je ne vais plus dormir à tout regarder. Hâte voir le montage de la coque c'est la dessus que je pèche encore et de voir de bon montage me fait progresser. Merci encore de mettre à disposition ces vidéos. 😍

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

S'il te plaît. Je suis content que vous l'aimez!

Impressive work. And it's the first time i see a woman have so much fun with this hobby. I build ships myself and it give me so much plesure. You can also use lego blocks for the bulkheads. They are perfect 90 degrees.

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you very much! I have never tried to use Lego blocks - thanks for the suggestion...

[@cajunrandy2143]

expert construction !! tyvm for posting !

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you!

[@denisv4385]

A very good start which reveals another magnificent ship. It can be seen that the laser parts are precise and well adjusted. It is a real pleasure to follow the construction of your ships.

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you! Yes, this kit is really well made but all the details are made of basswood and this is the only drawback. It's fine wood to fill the spaces but awful as a finishing material. Wood is cheap and the model also becomes cheap and very monochrome. Therefore, I will add contrast by adding precious woods and create volume by tinting...

[@user-xi3rv3ol6k]

@@OlhaBatchvarov набор для такой модели стоит немалых денег, но производитель видно пожадничал. Уверен, с Вашим опытом и сноровкой, конечный результат как всегда будет выше всяких похвал.

Awesome keep up the good work my friend

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you, I will

[@killerkane1957]

Excellent as always! I wanted to share a “discovery”. I have found that the metal foil tape used in making stained glass to be very useful. It blackens well and the gum does not dissolve in the process. The material is great for barrel hoops, gun carriage wheel tires, etc. Thank you for your videos!

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you very much! Yes, I have copper from this type of foil. I like that it is sold in different widths and can be selected on a scale for example for copper plating. But it must be handled very carefully because it is easily wrinkled. And also for its use it is necessary to prepare ideally equal surface!

[@chrisbarber5842]

I think you are a great builder and I have learnt a lot thank you for sharing

[@craigwilcox4403]

Olha Batchvarova, I think I have your secret figured out - you are totally organized, and when you are working on a part of the ship, you have a nice, un-cluttered workspace! I think I told you that I build flintlock long rifles and pistols from about 1740-1820 or so. And a few percussion ones up until about 1870. I have four workbenches in this big room (about 6.2 m x 7,5 m), and it is almost impossible to actually see the work surface on any of the workbenches! Right now, on one bench, I am making a new stock for a double barrel 10 ga. shotgun. On another, I am making knives, putting the handles on blades. On another, I am building a 1770 Lancaster long rifle, with a 1,74 m barrel, and on the last, I am building a 1740 German Jaeger (hunting) rifle. AND it is piled high with skins and furs as I am making a pair of Eskimo boots called "mukluks", There are also 4 male cats and my Service Dog, Sunny. She helps me get around, shopping, things like that. Not doing too well in the mobility - Vietnam finally caught up with me. So, Miss Batchvarova, would you like to come visit and organize my workroom? You do exquisite work, very detailed in every way. this ship, by the way, a 1778 USS Confederacy, is huge, meaning that there are even MORE details to be shown, yet you just go calmly, doing one task at a time. Each one gets your total attention, something I am unable to do. I could teach you a few things to help you out, too. Forgive the long note - old man just rambling along.

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Wow - your workshop is twice as big as mine))) And most importantly - fluffy assistants. I also have a cat in my homeland and a horse - but my animals stayed with my mother because my husband is categorically against animals and it's sad...

[@craigwilcox4403]

@@OlhaBatchvarov I have always been an animal lover. My working career was as a wetlands and wildlife biologist - from northern Virginia to southern Argentina, many points in between.

[@craigwilcox4403]

Miss Batchvarov, watching this again - so much to learn! Why do you paint the bulkheads and "keel" black? Is this part visible when the ship is finished? And I want to congratulate you on (1) making sure everything is square, and (2) scraping off the excess glue. What other parts of the interior are painted? I can see staining or varnishing the decks - will you paint other interior portions? I did acquire another dog. My Service Dog, Sunny Girl, is getting old (like me!), so I have gotten a red Standard Poodle, Teddy, to train as her replacement. Teddy, at 8 months, is much taller than Sunny, and has all the energy of a classroom filled with 6 year olds!

[@CubusMaximus]

Hello. Great Videos. i watched a few of them and i am amazed by the detail and effort you put in your models. i startet one my self, but i lost interesst after building the hull... but now i get an itch to finish it. keep up your inspiring work. p.s. is this stand for the keel made custom by you for this ship?

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you! I'm glad you like it! This stand is made of a piece of board - I just glued a few pieces of wood to keep the keel in a vertical position...

[@peterwright217]

wow, new to your web-sight, must ask how many ship models do you have on-going ie building.

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

I am currently working on 4 models of varying difficulty and one of them from scratch...

[@azzoun]

Wow. I couldn’t obtain a smooth result using a dremel to fare the bulkheads.

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

I still do the finishing sanding by hand!

[@donaldsmith9103]

I notice you apply your glue with a brush. How do you clean your brush afterward? Or do you throw it away?

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

I keep a jar of water behind the scenes and wash the brush in water every time after use. But really that from glue they spoil quickly and once a month I change them.

[@denisnikitin1927]

Olha, am I understanding it correctly that it’s a model without masts and sails? Just a hull? What’s the point of it?

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

That's right! This is a style of model that was very popular in the Admiralty, so it is a historical style that is called Admiralty style (or the British prefer the Navy Board models). And not everyone will be able to find a place for such a scale model because with a bowsprit it will be more than 1.5 m. Although I plan to make a reconstruction and put a masts and rigging on her...

[@joaquinubeiragonzalez2896]

Cuántas horas le dedicas al Modelismo Naval? Comercializas los trabajos que haces??

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Sí, vendo modelos confeccionados. Trabajo en el taller todo el tiempo entre limpiar la casa y cocinar)))

[@lesm2391]

How long do you let it cure before moving to the next rib

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

+/- 12 hours. One bulkhead in the morning and the next in the evening and so on ...

[@igormanuilovich1422]

Здорово, но хотелось бы увидеть, что стало с французским куттером.

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Спасибо! Француз ждет пока я куплю для него древисину ... он у меня "породистЬІй" только из дорогих пород дерева строится)))

[@garymurphy5133]

Why did you paint those rib things black then glue the black sides togehter si it ca not been seen,i am not a builder and wondered the reason

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

It's just to get a thin line that will make the glued frame visible that it consists of two parts...

[@DARIVSARCHITECTVS]

You're not done with the Ragusa carrack yet, are you?

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

She is also being built in parallel in the process!

[@davidrasch3082]

What is your opinion of this kit? Pros? Cons? Special tools?

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Big and interesting (very well detailed and based on historical drawings without the traditional simplifications for modelers, everything is historically correct) but takes up a lot of space... The downside is the very cheap material in the kit - all basswood - so I will replace everything!

[@davidrasch3082]

@@OlhaBatchvarov THANX. Maybe the basswood is a cost factor. Saw the first video.

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

This part will have frames that will not be planked - so in order to hide the skeleton it is better to paint it with black paint...

[@MothaLuva]

@@OlhaBatchvarov I see…on the original ship, this compartment served as what? Or is it just a peculiarity of the model to see a little bit of the interior…?

[@MothaLuva]

@@OlhaBatchvarov …and before I forget, you’re doing great work. Not only to agree with the majority of the comments. It is fairly rare to see women in that hobby. I know of only 2, one is doing planes, the other is a figure painter and that’s about it. Before I „met“ you. So now, 3 😊 I build models myself, have been doing that for about 47 years now, but mostly plastic and there mostly planes and military vehicles. I did some ships too, but later ones like WW I and II. I did only 2 or 3 sailships in my „career“, they are so much work…
