Кто-то из знаменитостей говорил, что настоящие моряки закончились когда перестали ходить на парусах. Но настоящие моделисты никогда не закончатся пока строятся такие красивые и точные модели кораблей. Я пока решил сделать парусник из картона, т.е. иду от простого к сложному. А Вам ,Ольха, успехов в новых сложных моделях!

[@Уоми]

Не думаю , что парусник из картона - это просто . Гляньте выкройки из польского "Shipyard". Там ещё и рангоут можно делать из бумаги .

I've recently ordered this ship after seeing your videos. The build looks difficult, but doable. This will be a model with many hopefully happy building hours. Looking forward to seeing more videos of your build. It helps me to see what techniques you use for ship modeling. I'm a fan of your channel. Thumbs up!!

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you! I hope you will enjoy it like me!

[@roblanyon8893]

Brilliant. Beautiful craftsmanship. Some might say for that kind of work and effort, she should sail. In my mind she does.

[@usnchief1339]

No please, I have enough projects going on! I have a similar ship, USS Constellation, where I had finished the hull and deck. I never finished the rigging because I was living in Italy at the time and I would need to get it back to the states in one piece. This was my first and only model ship and it's still in the box I shipped it back in. The story of my life, I picked an easy one...LOL. When I opened the box i was surprised by the number of wood strips and small pieces. The kit requires thinking ahead 2 to 3 steps, to be successful. It's like putting a puzzle together. You just have to make the pieces. That was 20 years ago...lol. Thank you :)

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Rigging is the most interesting. So I do research for this ship, calculate masting and rigging. Because this kit does not have it...

I'm debating if the expression on your face at the end of the video is a smile at what you have accomplished, or a grimace as in "Holy S---, what have I gotten into?". As always though, beautiful work Olha!

Thank you! No, it was the expression "Finally I made a good shot" Because the remote was with a discharged battery which worked not immediately and I took more than 50 photos before taking this photo)))

I worked on my Confederacy to about 65% completion. I wish I would have seen this video before I started my build. It would have made the project easier and less work for a better end product. Having been exposed to this kit makes me appreciate your skill and methodology even more. The presentation itself is, IMHO, much better and professional than the average YT material. Unfortunately my old lungs no longer enjoy loads of wood dust so my modeling efforts have taken a different tack. Enjoyed your presentation, thanks.

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

WOW - thank you! I suffer from allergies to dust - especially from walnut wood. Probably that's why my favorite part in model building is sewing sailis and rigging)))) that's why I really want to make this model with sails!

I have tried making (much less complex) models like these and the amount of patience required cannot be overstated. How long do you work at a time? How do you avoid neck and eye strain?

When I work with models my eyes rest and I have a very comfortable chair. I'm in the workshop every day, but there's also my photo studio where I take and edit photos and videos - so my working day in the workshop from early morning to late evening is about 10-12 hours a day between cleaning, washing and cooking and without days off)))

[@killerkane1957]

Now that I am fully awake and actually thinking, I went back to your first video on The Confederacy. I am very familiar with the kit. But I do not yet have it. Brilliant model from MS. Thousands of accurate parts. Very challenging in itself. I have a build list for my kit inventory that will exceed my remaining lifetime. BUT, it is a simple matter to order this kit and place it to the front of the list. Your skill is always so impressive! Your little hands fly about gluing and adjusting! Brava!!

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you very much!

[@killerkane1957]

Olha, I just finished a total restoration of a 1957 tractor. Every nut and bolt. Now I can spend time on my ships again. Which brought me back to you. Please tell me why you consider this ship difficult? Your skill set is vast. Wood is wood. Not being negative! Want to understand. I do not have this kit. Yet. Added: now I remember this kit! It is Admiralty! Many parts. Model Shipways.

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

I can imagine how many nuts you have to tighten ... This model is very large and quite heavy - so the difficulty depends not only on the number of parts, but also on the difficult manipulation of the model. It takes a lot of time to turn from the left side to the right side or vice versa and it should be done very carefully so as not to touch or break anything - especially the stern parts...

[@killerkane1957]

@@OlhaBatchvarov - not just tighten but organized, bead-blast, prime, paint. And of course each bolt is original and head stamped. Every seal and bearing. Total disassemble. As challenging as an auto restoration. I realizes that when done! Thank you for your reply. Your work is so beautiful, organized, and efficient! Despite my decades of work, I always see a better way while watching your efforts! Amazing! God Bless.

Hermoso modelo de navío de línea. Me dediqué al modelismo naval durante años, en los ratos libres que me dejaba mi profesión. Construí varios modelos: un galeón veneciano del SXVI, el navío de línea español "La santísima madre", el barco de guerra francés "La Couronne", uno de los más difíciles por los detalles y otros de menor importancia. Se requiere investigación, mucho trabajo y mucha paciencia para llevar a feliz término esta tarea tan difícil como agradable. ¿El premio? Poseer una pieza de museo digna de admiración.

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Tu verdad! Gracias!

[@pikethree]

You probably already know this, but I'd like to give you this tip. The best invention I've come across in recent years. Bicarbonate of soda and super glue. Hard as stone, but sandable. Dry in 1.5 seconds. Pour more bicarb add another drop... endlessly adaptable

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Yes I know this trick! I use it only in cases where PVA does not work. For example, glue metal to wood, etc. If you use only CA on such a big hull - cataracts will be guaranteed! This is a very toxic glue, but it is also impossible to build without it completely, especially when installing the rigging...

[@bgribs8378]

I was wondering what glue you use? It looks like titebond? Do you use CA?

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Yes, it was Titebond II! At this stage it will not be visible that the glue is yellow after drying - so it is perfect here. CA - definitely not for such an important stage of construction! It is not suitable for work at high temperatures - and I will use a soldering iron when bending the planks directly on the hull... CA can not withstand the load the joint and the surfaces are hard to clean from it! (this video has an example of removing a part without damaging adjacent parts, which cannot be done with CA). I am using CA but not at this stage...

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

This is a completely different type of kits where you need to work with glue and cut and sand wooden parts even if they are laser cut! This building process is much longer, so choose the ship that you will be interested to building! And remember that the smallest model does not mean the ieasiest. Here it is rather the opposite!

When you buy these kits, do the parts come already cut-up and shaped to size? What kind of glue is used

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

"Yes" and "No". Here are all the laser-cut parts, but each still needs to be "held in the hands" before gluing because there is no angle of 90 degrees on the ship. Everything should be shaped and sanded. This is definitely not a LEGO constructor...
