[@DiscusRussell]

Thank you very much! Your video's are very informative and clear. What I realy like is your blue background, it makes it all so clear specially with the robes. I startet with the same model a few years ago, but a broken shoulder, bad eyesight and shaken hands (80 years), I have just made the hull. But now, after your vide's .....!

Thanks a lot!!! It really means a lot :)

This is my second wooden ship kit and the first was 30 years ago! After watching Alex's video series I jumped back in for my second attempt, and I am not at all disappointed at all. Between following Alex's words and the enclosed instructions I could not be any happier with the results. The hull is complete and I am ready to keep pushing on. Thank you, Alex!

[@Occre]

Oh!!! Thanks a lot. We are heppy to know you started again after 30 years. Glad you are enjoying a lot 😊👍🏼👏🏼

どこで買いましたか

[@timbabcox6581]

I don't think you need to apologize; it's only a model and your first wooden ship model. You did fantastic work! Mistakes are expected. The more you do it, the more you'll improve. I hope you've continued making more.

[@Occre]

Agreed!

What a good episode. Again, the jazz ambience really makes this video so relaxing. But why do you have a secondary channel?

[@AlexModeling]

Its not a secondary channel! This one is Occre Official KZbin Channel! Were you can find videos and visual help on building some of the best wood ship models in the world and i feel honored Occre uses my vídeos on there channel as a reference and guide! Stay safe!

Thank you, Alex. I plan to use your videos when I get my kit. After spot-checking your videos for the Albatros, one thing that concerns me, as an absolute beginner with not many tools to start with, is how many tools (not all available at OCcre, I believe) you used to build the Albatros. What tools do you think are absolutely necessary? Which would be helpful but not required? Would OCcre’s Basic Tools and their Precision Measuring and Cutting Tools kit be enough? Thanks again.

Thanks for these videos! This is my second wooden ship model; my first had a resin hull, so this will be a more advanced model. It looks like the instructions have good details for the rigging-- I didn't have anything like that for my first model, so I just had to do the best I could. How long do you think it took you to build this? It looks wonderful!

[@Occre]

Thanks a lot Ben !! :) It depends on many factors: the level and experience of the modeler, the level of detail you want to give it, the time you can dedicate. :)

¿No sería más cómodo coser las velas antes de colocarlas?

My only fault with these models, not your construction, but the models themselves, is that at a 1:100 scale, if you were at a distance that people usually view models, you would not be able to see the warp and weft lines in the woven fabric of the sails if viewing the actual ship. The fabric used for sails on these models is way too large, not to scale and looks a bit off. I've had good success using paper as sail material, especially paper dipped in tea and left to dry to give a weathered and aged appearance. After drying you may need to iron the paper if it wrinkles.
