Yes, please do the 3 models. Thank you sir
Thank you for your comment
I 100% agree
It would be nice to see the comparison between the three kits, especially the instructions. Personally I love OcCre, their build videos are very helpful.
Hi John, thanks for your comments, I would have to agree with you, I also like the fact you still get paper instructions with the kits.
@@g-kip Not just any instructions, but amazing color diagrams with easy to follow along pictures. In my limited opinion, I agree that OcCre wins. I just wish it didn't take 14 billion coats of paint when painting over the metal components.
Thanks for your videos Your suggestion on comparing 3 kits is excellent I would watch it with great interest
Thank you
Great video. Very informative
Thanks Roma.
@@g-kip I enjoy your videos. Very educational. Thanks for sharing with us
Yes, the comparison would be interesting.
Thanks RIchard
Great video Grant. Here I am over the other side of the world and I have all the same tools.
I woold like to see you compare the 3 ships. It's amazing how much difference there is between manufacturers.
Thanks Greg, haha I was wondering where all my tools were, now I know you've got them.
@@g-kip 🤣🤣🤣
Amazon should just put a package together. One click and it arrives at your door. Okay, maybe two clicks...
It is astonishing that all shipbuilders use exactly the same equipment worldwide, regardless of each other.
Hi Wolfgang, It's amazing how shipbuilders have standardized their equipment globally!
True. It is very universal as to what each person is using yet putting their spin on some methods and tools. Similar, yet different.
A calliper is more accurate in my experience of building wooden historical shipmodels with sails than just relying on ruler for accurate measurements
also a tweezer is very helpful
Again, nice presentation. It may be usefull to compare models of different brands, but i like to see building in general anyway. Always something there i didn`t think of myself.
Thanks Martin, do you think the voiced videos are better?
@@g-kip actually i do, yes. One can only tell so much with just their hands.
@@g-kip Go figure. I was half way through making a video like this...just my luck! I for one will be creating a voiced over build for my next ship which I hope top begin within the next two weeks. Hopefully I do it justice.
Sorry Joe, whats your next build (no im not gonna pinch that idea too lol)
@@g-kip All good! I will be building Pavil's Santa Maria that I won in Olha and Pavil's raffle. It looks a bit daunting, but let's see how it goes!
For holding parts square. Especially the framing, a set of 1-2-3 Blocks. The Chinesium ones are quite cheap for what they. All 6 surfaces are ground square to their adjacent sides. Plus they are quite heavy. Clamps. They spring type wooden clothes pins. Being wood they can easily be sanded into special nose shapes. They are also available in minature versions. One extra type of clamp l started using on paper models. Bobby Pins.
Hi, thanks for the info, I will have to check out the blocks, what type of paper models do you make?
@@g-kip
Not to active now. Too many other things going on. Models primarily ships and aircraft. Plus some of my own designs. One design was an Arsenal Type ship for a contest and another was for reusable cargo or crewed spacecraft. That had a common propulsion module. The main body was 4"/101.6mm in diameter for 1/72nd scale. The ships were from Digital Navy.
@@mpetersen6 wow impressive selection, Ive seen some paper models here on UA-cam, never actually tried it though
@@g-kip
There is a gentleman from Poland (1) that is building a T-72 published by Angraf. Amazing work. Articulated tracks. All sorts of goodies. UA-cam channel swag_er
1) All the best paper modelers and models are from Poland, Slovakia, Czech Republic. Or at least it seems like it. One beautiful thing about paper or card modeling is if you screw up. Just print more parts. Even the preprinted kits always scan the pages for safety's sake. Plus if you want to build a ship in a different scale just print it larger. Or smaller.
Music is loud
Sorry
Loose the music and the subtitles, I gave up watching.
Sorry to here you didn't enjoy the Video
@@g-kip the topic was great just the presentation needs attention.
