I have started the bounty about 4 weeks ago, I have moved on to the first planking (about 4 every four hours). I am going to use more bog on this model than the previous 15 models I have built. I am not looking forward to the amount of dust i will make. I watch your videos from start to part 15 at least 5 times and without this help I would be in trouble John, thanks for all your help.
I agree that this Kit has his Issues and so I hope, with the help of my Videos you will overcome them. Too much honor to title me as a Master , I am just an ordinary Guy who make some Videos . Thank you
Hi, thank you for the video and information. I have just ordered this ship today. "Why" well I am not sure but here in Australia we have very little to chose in finding ships there must be a world shortage with Covid 19. However with the help of the videos I am sure I will complete It. Cheers, John, Hervey Bay, Australia.
Hello John , the Covid Supply Crises has affected every Country , I am here in the Philippines are also waiting since Month for new Supplies from Amati and other Brands. I am sure that you will have a lot of Fun with your Bounty Kit and with Video Guide I made you will overcome the little Issues this Kit has . Happy modeling , John
your doing a great job - I enjoy your problem solving solutions - I hope the manufacturers see how you identify their mistakes and correct them for the future :-)
Since we are the Distributor of Amati here in the Philippines, you can be sure that the CEO of Amati sees all those Videos LOL . And " YES " they know about those little Problems but it will take Time to re-engineer a complete Kit. For that Reason Amati has given a Group of Modelers their Kits to make Videos , like ours. This will help all of us to find Solutions for those little Mistakes , especially for Beginners who just have started with this Hobby .
We should not judge the Model so fast, even so it has his Issues, there is nothing what a handy or experienced Modeler couldn't solve. The Bounty , and other Models are one of the oldest Model in the Selection of Amati, and I am sure that Time will come that they will check those and correct certain Problems. Nevertheless it's still a beautiful and highly detailed Model Kit which is a nice Addition for every Modeler
English instructions are missing several pages , I emailed them for digital instructions and later found the instructions that came with kit , no wonder I was confused , I emailed them on the short coming
Tnx Mike, don't worry I am building Wooden Ships since my early Childhood and I think I will never lose the Interest of building how ever worst the Kit or Instructions are LOL .
Hello Gary , that is always a Question which can't be answered easy handed. First I don't know what are your Skills ! Because some People have never build a Scale Model but they have the Skills to do it, others don't have any Skills and they have to learn everything from Zero ! So my advise is in general don't buy a Kit with a complicated Hull Shape, plenty of rigging and hyper Details. If you ask me what Kit I would advise to buy from Amati; for a Beginner with Skills definitely the Hunter Q Ship because everything goes together easily and I couldn't find any mayor Issues on the Kit ! As for a Beginner with very limited or no Skills I would advise one of the First Step Collection Models , they are super nice and easy to build and the Result is looking very good even for an untrained Builder . If you need my Opinion don't hesitate to contact me . Thank you
@@floormanism thank you very much. Btw, we are now also on Patreon : www.patreon.com/davaoshipmodeller . There you can watch our Videos up to 2 Month earlier then others.
As you said, its not a model for the begginer, kit gives a challange. However it is strange for me, that Amati (the art of modelling, museum quality, bla-bla-bla) offers the kit with such issues. Anyway, your model looks great, thanks for the video.
Easy to explain , because the Bounty is one of their oldest Model . There was some changes in Managment in the Past and the current CEO has done already many new Things. I think Amati is now on the right Track but it's still a long Way to go . Without doubt the Quality is still much better, compare to other Producer who let produce in China. Thank you
Hearing you explain things and talk your way through kit problems is very helpful.
I am always glad if I can help with my Experience I made with a Kit
Thanks for pointing out the multitude of issues this kit has and your solutions in resolving
the issues. Good job! Bill G Linwood Kansas USA
Thank you for the Comment Bill and it's a pleasure to make those Videos that may help other Modellers.
Thanks these videos will help a lot as I'm just about to start this kit.
woow Tnx and enjoy your Project

Thank you and I am glad that my Videos are helping you with your Project. Happy modelling
Thanks for the comments and modifications, looks beautiful 👌🏾😸
Welcome and thank you very much
With all the issues this kit has it should cost half as much.
Only a master like you can get something beautiful out of this kit.

What is function of sanding sesler
The purpose of the Sanding Sealer is to close the Wood Pores and retain the Fibers so that you have a non porous and smooth surface for the Paint Job
Did you just use a brush to apply the sand sealer? Or did you spray it on? I suppose if you sand it after brush application would be fine.
Yes brushing the Sanding Sealer is just fine
What kind of glue did you use to attach the wales?
I used CA Glue for this
your doing a great job - I enjoy your problem solving solutions - I hope the manufacturers see how you identify their mistakes and correct them for the future :-)

@@davaoshipmodeller Thank you very much I will look into them both. Also thanks so much for the videos. it's always nice to watch a craftsman at work.
