    Brian's 1/100 HMS Victory

    BTW Brian where the stays are shown going through the hull you could always attach them later by fixing a very small eye bolt in the hole. These are easily made by turning a piece of thin copper wire around a pin or similar and cutting to length. On many ships this is in fact how the...

    Brian's 1/100 HMS Victory

    Brian These look like STAY fasteners. I suspect the PATH column may refer to the piece number to which the stay will be attached. For those lines that are doubled through a block the only concern is to make them the same length on matching sides. As Tim mentioned for those lines that are not...

    Brian's 1/100 HMS Victory

    Brian If you PM me your address I'll send you this. You should find it helpful for some of the rigging. I won't be using it anymore. John p.s. It might take a week or two in the old birch bark canoe to cross the pond.

    Computer Games

    Yes I am one of those who enjoys the odd computer game or two and was seduced by the launch of STARFIELD. I got it through Steam and it took about 20 hours to download on my internet connection. I have only really just unwrapped it but I have too say, for anyone who is interested in space...

    Arizona Trumpeter 1/200th

    Nick Great modelling and I have to admit that I am very much an 18th century sailing ship nerd. I have never built Victory but I have built some frigates of the period and I am a keen painter of the period. This is the great frigate duel between Shannon and the Chesapeake. John

    LIANG 1/35 MODEL BRICK graver.

    Nothing really to do with cutting brick patterns but here is a tool some scratch builders may not have seen before but they could find useful. It is a stained glass makers pattern cutter. A form of scissors with 3 blades that cuts a uniform strip out of foil, plasticard, cardboard etc. Mine cut...

    Figure Painter's Could You Please Help

    Chris Here are my efforts. They vary from approx 11mm to about 15mm. I did a few so that I could practice and you can pick the size you want if you like them. I have given them a coat of UV resin since I know they may be going to sea and that should protect them. PM me your address and I will...

    Malayan Emergency 1/35 scale.

    Everyone I know that Mr. Race and his committee have sole authority to decide the Dog's award for modelling. However, representing the North American continent, I have decided to institute a special award for outstanding Scratchery. So I am pleased to award the first of the Simon T Memorial...
