Creative Ship Model Making by Gerhard O.W. Fischer Pdf

It is often annoying that every kit model built from the same kit of the same company is like one egg from the other. This is what creative ship modelling aims to change! Using prefabricated hulls, it is mainly a matter ofthe superstructure, which must be redesigned, sawn out and further processed and further processed, without the need for a construction template. The conversion of kit models shows how to convert ready-built models to a completely new model by converting them to jet propulsion. Finally, the author presents four examples how larger display models can be converted into real driving models to properly running RC ship models by installing a remote-control system. From the content: • Construction of models according to own designs • Building description of two creative models • Building a police boat according to own ideas • Two creative construction models - The MULTIBOAT • A speedboat and a mega luxury yacht • Conversion of kit models - The FLORIDA as a jet model • The RAPIDO 600 as a jet model • A customs cruiser and a fishery protection boat • Conversion of display models to RC models • Cruise ship QUEEN MARY 2 • Sea rescue cruiser HERMANN MARWEDE • German submarine class VII C • American submarine GATO class • REVELL RC ship model already at the end of the 50s

Bow to Stern: How to Build a Model Ship from Scratch by R. F. Bob Raymond Pdf

Bow to Stern: How to Build a Model Ship from Scratch, is a beginners guide for hobbyists who wish to begin the craft of building model ships, or improve upon their current approaches. Experienced model ship builder, R.F. "Bob" Raymond, was frustrated by the lack of guidance he could find on the internet or in libraries when he first began building ships almost 25 years ago. A retired custom mason contractor by trade, Raymond has since built more than 60 ships, every component part from scratch. He has learned through those many projects -- and trial and error -- new techniques, tricks and materials that have led to high quality, award-winning model ships. Raymond describes step by step how to build a model ship, using simple materials and easy to understand techniques that fit within anyone's budget and with basic wood working skills. Amateur builders just need to bring their enthusiasm, creativity and patience in order to create nautical masterpieces that builders will be proud to display and share.

Ship Modeling Simplified: Tips and Techniques for Model Construction from Kits by Frank Mastini Pdf

In Ship Modeling Simplified, master model builder Frank Mastini puts to paper the methods he's developed over 30 years at the workbench to help novices take their first steps in an exciting pastime. You don't need the deftness of a surgeon or the vocabulary of an old salt to build a model. What you need is an understanding coach. Mastini leads readers from the mysteries of choosing a kit and setting up a workshop through deciphering complicated instructions and on to painting, decorating, and displaying finished models--with patience and clarity, not condescension. He reveals dozens of shortcuts: How to plank a hull "egg-shell tight"; how to build and rig complicated mast assmeblies without profanity; how to create sails that look like sails. . . . And along the way he points out things that beginners usually do wrong--beforehand, not after they've taken hammers to their projects. Ship Modeling Simplified even includes an Italian-English dictionary of nautical terms, the key to assembling the many high-quality Italian kits on the American market. Model building is fun, and not nearly as difficult as some experts would have you believe. Here is everything you'll ever need to get started in a hobby that will last a lifetime.

Period Ship Modelmaking by Philip Reed Pdf

This new shipmodeller's manual explains in graphic manner how to build a small 1/16th scale model of the American privateer schooner Prince de Neufchatel. She was one of a new class of large, fast and seaworthy schooners that first made their appearance during the war of 1812. She had a short but notoriously successful career that earned her a permanent place in her nation's history. World-renowned ship modeller Phil Reed describes in this new book how to build two versions of this ship: a waterline model and a full-hull display model. Building on the success of his first book, Modelling Sailing Men-of-War, which described the complex building process of the 74-gun ship, he has here taken a simpler vessel, to encourage the less experienced shipwright to embark upon a scratch-built hull. Taking this schooner as a prototype, the author passes on a wealth of experience which will enable modellers of all skill levels to confidently tackle every aspect of building any small fore-and-aft rigged vessel.
