- Henry Turner's GB: Elizabeth-class 3rd rate (74 guns), 1769-1817 - Miniature wargaming
Ship 1:700 scale printed on a resin 3D printer, one of designer Henry Turner's simpler ships, but with many possibilities to "dress it up".
I wanted to give it an older ship look than it really was, so I painted it and rigged it in an old-fashioned style.
I've been looking forward to trying out one of Turner's ships, I don't think it will be long before I'll be painting some more of his designs (provided my printed resin supplier keeps supplying them, of course).

The "water" you're adding to the bases of your ships gets better with each model. Bravo!
Thanks, there is no doubt that it is part of the piece, in addition to its practical function, so you have to look good and improve the visibility of the boat.
@@alexfelip1 - Absolutely correct, but you've changes your technique for creating waves on the bases with these new models. If you have time in one of these videos, could you describe how you do this. . . again? Thanks.
@@justMikec Of course, in the next video with a big enough figure I will show this matter better. Although I haven't changed the technique basis, in this case I didn't raise the waves to make a calmer sea, I left a little more thickness in the area where the boat was going to go to increase the splashes of the hull, and I let the plastic film I use to protect the figure fall a little creating those flat splash areas. I also noticed that subtly highlighting with white paint with the varnish still wet, helps to make foam more realistic.
I'm so glad you like them better than the previous ones! It's great to feel the progress in the right direction, and I created this channel for that, and to know what I could do better too, by the way, so I also look forward to your criticisms!
(apologies for replying earlier from my private account, I didn't realize it).
Perfect. My four year old demanded a book nook of her own when she saw me making my HMS Hood one, so I quickly fell on HMS Elizabeth for hers (since it’s her name). Excited to get started, especially with this video to help out!
Thank you so much for sharing your excitement with your daughter and with us. I hope you have a great time with your project!
Fantastic work, love the 'exotic wood' colors...Inspired and gorgeous, 👍👍
Thank you!
Resin printers are really good for small objects like this one sometimes I wish to own one. (I have 5 fdm printers) Well done nicely detailed, looks great.
Thank you! There is no doubt that resin printers are changing the world of miniatures, if I don't have one already is because for the moment they need a lot of dedication to use them well and even more to make your own designs.
@@MinisMyWay Yes I know very fiddly.
It turns out very well . A great precise work ! Bravo
Thank You!
Very nice
Thank you!
great work and great video!
Thank you!
which vallejo model colour would you use for the sea? i cannot find the air ones ?
The equivalent of Model Air 71.089 Light Sea Blue is Model Color 70844 Deep Sea Blue. Air 71.087 Dark Sea Blue would be somewhere between 70899 Dark Prussian Blue and 70925 Intense Blue. I think more important than the exact color, after all the sea has many different shades, is that the paint be a little transparent, so add water or thinner to the Model Color you end up using. Here is a link to a PDF with the Model Air catalog: acrylicosvallejo.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/vallejo-model-air-CC071-Rev18.pdf and here is a link to a PDF with a table of equivalences of Vallejo colors: blog.ociomodell.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/EQUIVALENCIAS_Vallejo-.pdf
...very nice modell, very nice modeller, very nice painting artist, and so on... But truely the wrong colours...
Indeed, as I indicate in the video I wanted to give an older look and indeterminate nationality to use it in games set in earlier times than his own.
