Anybody can slap together a plastic model, but you always take it to another level, Chris. Those sisal cables and ropes and the tarp on the lifeboat are outstanding.
Loved watching you build this one, H. I've lusted for this kit now and then, but never seen a build process. You did a very nice job.
Thanks Wade, get one and build it up!
I engineered a stern wheeler about that size, only diesel (GMC 6-71, chain drive). Puget Sound and Lake Washington. Job only lasted about eight years, then on to tugs. This is a memory flogger and inspiration both. Now a spry 74, I do plastic models, HO scale shelf trains and kinetic "micro" dioramas. Your channel is a continual source of inspiration, education, resources and most important, ENTERTAINMENT.
Thank you for sharing...
Thanks for watching!
Another great video, Chris! You are Lindberg's best advertisement! I'll add this to my to- build list. Great detail. What I like most about your videos is the enthusiasm- you have fun and it shows!
Thanks James! I like them, people want to whine and complain but as you see, no issues. No filler, nothing needed.
The model looks great! You have a lot of neat techniques like the masking tape tar paper and the ropes. It very realistic. Thanks for sharing this.
I would have never considered using craft paints until I started watching your videos!
Thanks for watching! They'll save you a lot of money if you build numerous kits.
Great build !!! Thank You for all your builds and reviews , I use them as reference before I buy the kits. Hope all's well with you and your family ! Take care, Tony
Thanks, you too!
Wow, you have definitely changed my mind about these Lindberg ships! Looks awesome!!
I've always said they are way better than many people think. I enjoy all I've made.
Dang, beautiful build....amazing work
Thanks Darth!
once again great job on the model bud. . the weathering is amazing on this one. also enjoyed seeing all the scale accessories all around the model at the end. very enjoyable watch right to the end.. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Nickster!
I motorised this boat. Gave it to my nephew.
Great jib Chris, I love the added detail. I did the same technique with my chairs on the Trek bridge with the painters tape to add detail, and it turned out great. I'd like to see you build the Orca, cause you know they'll need a bigger boat. Awesome vid bud. Build on Brother.
Thank you!
Do they make a kit of the Orca? I've always wanted one but can't find one.
hpiguys Workshop I don't know bud.
Many moons ago my very first model was a
Lindberg Line Gilmore Special...
been loving Lindberg ever since
I love the old ship kits!
That’s pretty cool Hpiguy! I like it, may have to try and get me one soon! Well, I like all the old river paddle boats! But real nice 👍!
Thanks, you'll like it!
Cool kit, you make is sound like fun. Nice detailing and weathering.
Thank you!
That's a darn nice boat! Funny how the lighting in the slideshow made the decks seems a little bit "camo-green" color, instead of "wood".
Thanks! Yeah, I'm no pro photographer for sure. I just place it and click the button.
Love your videos. The variety of kits is awesome. Keep it up.
Thanks Banka, I love it all! No kit snobbery here!
wow that's awesome, really beautiful
Thanks Rik!
Nice model 👍(from Indonesia 🇮🇩)

Enjoy!
Another beautiful kit there. =)
Thank you!
Coisa linda.
Great job on the build and the video my friend
Thanks Todd!
Working on this exact kit right now!
Enjoy, I loved it!
Looks Fantastic
Thanks!
This build is awesome
Thank you Samuel!
nice kit you put together. as a second gen. river rat we call ropes lines or lock lines. also I was wondering what they were thinking when they put the stacks in front of the pilot house.....impedes the captain or pilot from seeing everything infront of him. glad they didn't stay that way.needless to say I really enjoyed watching this boat being put together.
Thanks for watching and I always appreciate the extra info! I also agree, the boiler should have been turned around with the stacks in back. They learned as they went.
Fantastic!
Thanks!
Wow! Nice job.
Thanks for watching!
Any special observations about building the railngs? I noticed they did a nice job with the bases to make sure you knew which way the supports were supposed to face. Thoughts?
The kit is very easy, dry fit to make sure they all fit and then glue into place.
Nice model 👍👌
Thanks!
Awesome build Chris! Do you ever use your airbrush for craft paints?
I sure do. I mixed a custom color and shot the Mr Bean car among others.
I also did it for the Revell Sherman and the Takom Kamaz truck recently.
Very nice. Might want to add a gang blank. Thanks for sharing
Thank you, and thanks for watching and commenting!
Love the backstory on every video
Glad you like them!
Love it😊
Thanks!
Do the placement marks on the paddles go inside or outside the sproket?
Inside if I recall, but I know it's shown numerous times i the review so just match what you see in the video.
Also, not sure if anyone noticed but the doors on the starboard and port side of the upper level are around 2" tall but the doors on the main deck are 3" tall!
I love watching your videos! As an avid modeler myself I mostly build cars. I have recently purchased the Robert E. Lee paddle boat for something different. I was glad to come across this for some tips. I do have a tech question though......when you build your cars, you do as I do and assemble pretty much and then got back and detail paint. With this type of project that is similar to what I am going to build, what do you do and use to glue the already painted parts together? Do you scrape paint and glue, or use something other than the traditional model glue and super glue over the paint? Any help is appreciated and thank you in advance! John
I use CA (super glue) on any painted parts. I don't remove the paint, just a drop or two of CA does the trick.
All the rest gets bonded with Plastruct Bondene, which is my personal preference for styrene glue.
Looks amazing!! Have you looked at doing the lindberg shrimp boat? Its a good kit to build
I have the kit, just very busy building up newer releases but I'll get to her one day.
hpiguys Workshop ive built it twice and i loved it
Wow!
Haha, thanks!
on the corners of the hull the lines for the planking tends to kind of fade off. How did you resolve this, did you rescribe the lines? If so how did you resolve this with the existing lines which are raised?
I just build models for fun, I rarely worry about such things. Out of the box and have a good time is my MO.
The old version from the 1970s came with an electric motor that drove the paddles. I almost caught my death from pneumonia running the thing on a local pond in the winter.
I bet!
So I used the 3 craft paints that you used for this kit, which I had received last Christmas from my brother, and have to admit this just did not work right for me. I had to do at least 3 layers of the craft paint to get good coverage and it does not cover well. Also, it dries kind of rough textured and tends to clump up. Did you have this experience with those craft paints?
Picked this up for $20 bucks at Ollie's a few months back
This model lives up to its name. Belle means "beautiful" in French.
How does the pilot get into the upper cabin if there are no doors nor any steps?
Try not to think so literally for a fun model.
The ladders on the outside is how most got around.
@@hpiguy Great job by the way, love it.
Wow
I love these Lindberg kits!
"When I'm an Older man" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Totally in that boat with you there.
LOL, thanks.
Hpiguys workshop question can you do a video of a model kit the Amt Nissan Hardbody 4x4 truck please??
Hello Chris, I don't own that kit currently but if I pick it up I'll do a video.
When I got this kit I had one problem is that two of the boilers where badly warped
So I had to put tape on the Warped Boilers
So if you some of you had the same problem use some tape while gluing the Boilers together
Good tip.
does this Float??
Yes. Way back it had a motor and gears to make the paddlewheel work.
i have bought something for you and i would like to send it to you as it is nice and different and historical as well but not i repeat not a tank lmao....though i am a tank builder i got this as i was pretty sure you would enjoy it after all your videos that i have enjoyed and you might very well build this for video as i also think your audience and fans would like this to.....but how can i send it to you please and bare in mind i'm in England lmao.......please brother ....
Hello, that's incredibly nice of you. I'm taken back by your generosity.
I don't accept gifts from people but I do appreciate the gesture.
I think you should crack it open and build it and send me pics, a tribute if you will. OR, even better, build it with a kid and get them into modeling. That would make me very happy to know that I helped somewhat for someone to enjoy their hobby even more.
Thank you many times over for thinking of me. :)
please accept this...i have no family or kids anymore just me and my dog,she is very clever but asking her to build it is asking abit to much lol.....seriously bud it is not a kit i will ever build but i genuinely know it's right up your street and it has already been delivered to me lol....please brother....
please except this as a early or late birthday prezzie...hahaha.....i promise i will not do it again...but....please brother it is a gift and it is by etiquette bad manners to refuse a gift...to the best of my knowledge you served in some way...so did i in England and yes you would be surprised of the action i have seen that you know is always kept quiet and how the media barely know 10% of the real service life and the enormous acts around the world that nobody tells the media about or the population would be in a state of panic lmao....an old school friend who is in the royal navy told me that the saying was aboard ship that '' we stop an open war at least once a week,if it is a quiet one'' lmao......use my private email and i will send it and apologise for what has happened by putting you on the spot which was never my intention and for that i am truly sorry...but please just this once and only one time thank you gift..it is a kit designed for a 1970 representation of a thing lol....special edition and it was the year i was born so seemed fitting and i know that it is not in production....i did not spend a fortune as i was very lucky to fall on a brand new and UNOPENED BOX....please let me say thank you for this once and ''ONLY'' once...again i apologise for this i was not thinking enough and have offended you....sorry brother i did not mean to....please first and only and i genuinely mean it that i will not do it again and this is also the first time i have done this for anyone on you tube...i just thought you would like it and after all i have watched every build video you do and nobody does it like you..and i love it as really good entertainment and education for an old modeller just get restarted after many years of non practise and you have genuinely helped me and the product choices i have made after being re-educated by your technique's and how you get around so many expensive ways like nobody i have seen before or since,so you have done me many favours and it is just a thank you for saving me a lot.....again i apologise for over stepping your unknown boundaries and should have asked before i bought it...i never intended to do the wrong thing..it was just a thank you for all you had done(unintentionally) for me....sorry brother....very sorry,just wanted to say thanks to you...please use my private email to keep your response more private if it helps...sorry....
I'm out in the sticks for a few days more on vacation and the internet is spotty, but if you can send me an email to hpiguy@charter.net I'll email you my address as soon as I get another connection.
Thank you,
Chris
