Jeff, by any chance, would you happen to still have the book and blueprints that came with this kit? Your attention to detail knows no bounds, fabulous end result.
@@weslake47 sorry mate, haven’t got room to keep paperwork etc from projects! Even got rid of all the magazines from the HMS Victory part works, and the plans I drew up for a Mary Celeste as no kit exists! All in the bin I’m afraid!
@@makumjeff2257 Thank you Jeff, for taking the time to reply. My dad lost all the information in his kit so I'm trying to track down these items for him. My search continues....
i totally agree with you ,its all about enjoying yourself and make it your own
it is abeauty , i am lucky enough to see the real one everyday , you done it amazingly, well done
Cheers mate, I ain’t no pro when it comes to model making, I enjoy a challenge, I’ve always loved the ‘Cutty ‘ since I was a kid. Part of my job as an engineer was to manufacture things that could not be ordered and when retirement loomed i decided to make things I wanted to make and started model making, my apprenticeship was the De Agostini Victory, since then I’ve done a few projects, mostly scratch builds (can’t afford the kits), but I couldn’t resist the kit for the ‘Cutty’, it doesn’t matter which kit you get, do some research and modify things to suit what you want, then it ends up ‘Your’ model! There is no good or bad, if you’ve done your best , it is the best! Enjoy your modelmaking!🛠️
Absolutely beautiful job. One to be proud of. You're right. Its more beautiful without the sails. Thank you for sharing.
how often do you find that some things don't quite fit the bill when compare with the plans of the other builds as it must easier to build palstic or wood?
a model of the cutty sark was given to my brother as a birthday present from mum and was the first my family had first heard of this model and so i myself and orthers bought several more of them over the years in there verying scale.i watched a y/t vid on a construction of it and he expained that he did'nt agree with the way the draft line looked and so he manually adjusted it.
😊😄☺💯👌
It’s a real shame these models require assembly. I’d love to have a model but I don’t have the time or patience to build it.
Just like to say that I’m not a professional, I just like to build, that’s my hobby! I’ve got stuff that I’ve built that’s sitting in my bedroom that anyone could have basically for the price of a kit, although I may have modified to improve it, or even made ‘scratch builds’ that anyone can have for price of materials! Only problem is I have no idea how to deliver or conduct sales?
So beautiful ❤
Very nice build. Which kit is this?
It’s Artisania Latina, I bought it through De Agostini, Joe, it’s a good quality kit but as always you can find ways to improve it!
I have to agree with your wife: this masterpiece deserves to be displayed on a special place in your home.
@jeffrey averre Judging by the Cutty Sarc build, I’m sure that you will produce another work of art.
cutty sark is probably my favorite ship good work ^^
The white text on-screen is almost impossible to read.
Lol I know you don't own a cat. I wasn't aware of the destruction capabilities of these critters until a "friend" brought me one. Lol well she was pregnant, who knew? Well I do love animals but these clowns have destroyed most of my builds, work area, paints, research items etc. Ah well, Dear diary lol
Great guitar track. Model rocks too!
Superb.
Wow, those lifeboats look fantastic! Well done.
great video :) The tool name in 5:35 ? the "nails ruler"
Glad you came up with that ! I had no idea what it was called!
Hi nice work, I fully understand the need to fit out the small boats interior even though it wont be seen. Do you have an idea of what this model is worth if you had it insured and it got destroyed and you could get paid to replace or repair it?
I am just starting this model and am trying to see how the deck planks fit at the waterways. Do the deck planks just sit on top and hence the simple square end or is there more detail. Can someone help please.
Solved it I think. The strips for planking and the waterways are both 1mm thick. Lay the plank over the waterway then cut the waterway away to accept the plank.
Spot on Chris, although if I remember correctly I think I put the waterway round the edge then the light planking and then added the wedge shaped fillets at the bow last!
Love the work Jeff. I am in the middle of a Cutty Sark build and would enjoy some coaching is you are so inclined.
I wouldn’t class myself an expert Jon but I’ll give you any help I can, the main thing is patience, get a good ‘Finnish’ on parts before assembly and do things in the correct order! (You don’t want to be painting stuff on the deck after doing the ‘rigging’ ) etc. Good luck with your build, look forward to seeing it👍
Well done !
Thanks for the comment my friend 👍, it is my favourite build!
this is a truly beautiful build. thank you for sharing it with us.
Thank you for your reference Your Cutty Sark model is the best
Тонкая работа......
just an aside I have been on Cutty Sark , even after all these years there is an over -whelming smell of tea below deck.
just to annoy you ( only joking) I just picked up the Billings 1/75 th scale for £215 inc delivery. just hope I do it justice like yours.
is this the Sergal kit?
@jeffrey averre what scale?
I'm working in the house that William Denny built in Drymen, Gateside House and it's been really interesting researching the man who built it, the Cutty Sark wind vein and the mosaic tiling at the front door and all the little far east connections in the gardens.
I don’t know anything about the house but I think Denny was involved in ship repair and building, and Cutty Sark was built at Dumbarton, so it was probably his company that built it! Nice to know there’s still historical links surviving 👍
Hi Ray, The only model that I fitted with sails was the Victory, it does look ok but as you say it hides a lot of the detail, it also takes a bit work to get them looking ‘natural’!
The most beautiful model I've seen to date. I agree, sails would have taken away a bit from the beauty. My 1:96 scale will be done without sails but I have two smaller, one wood, that I plan to fit sails. I hope I can come close to the finished masterpiece you've accomplished. Thanks for sharing with us.
Hi Jeff...beautiful model, really excellent work. I'm building a Constructo kit of the Cutty Sark - a it smaller than yours, but still quite detailed. I've done the standing rigging and I was looking at your video to try and figure out in what order to fit the yard arms so as not to end up in a tangle - but you skipped that bit! Have you any advice - i.e. did you start at the top or bottom of a mast, and did you finish one mast at a time?
Yea, your right, to be honest I just pulled the pictures together what I had for the video and probably missed a lot of things! I’ve only done 4 ships with full rigging and found working bottom to top but mainly inner rigging first and work outwards, unfortunately the shrouds are usually on before the rest of the rigging so you need to work around it! Good luck with your project 🙂
@@makumjeff2257 Hi Jeff thanks for reply. I'd read that working middle and low out was the best method, but I note on my model that the yards are mainly supported by the yard above - rather than blocks attached to the masts - which makes it a bit awkward. I'm going to have to plan things out a bit more before I begin! I've already had to repair a few things that got in the way when doing the dead eyes! Cheers again.
Hello Highwayman, you asked about notches on the keel frame, as I remember any Notches, steps etc on any of the frames are there for guides and will be used later in the build, they may need a little sanding when fitting items such as deck or side panels etc, usually all you need to remove are any bits where items were attached to the sheets! Hope that helps, good luck with your build🤗
I dont mean to be so off topic but does someone know of a method to log back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly lost the account password. I would love any tricks you can give me.
@Quinton Ayaan instablaster =)
@Zachariah Marcellus Thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and I'm in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Zachariah Marcellus it worked and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy! Thanks so much you saved my ass!
@Quinton Ayaan Happy to help =)
Very impressive! I would invest in a plastic/plexiglass cover to keep dust off. I'm a plastic model builder, so these wood ships are way beyond my level. But I enjoyed watching your video.
Polycarbonate is better and easier to make. About the same price last time I looked. Can be cold bent under 3 mm thick. Holes can be cold punched, and cut with tin snips. A one piece 5 sided cover is actually possible. I've made such covers.
I wouldn’t say that , I’m still an amateur compared to most modeller’s, just need patience and look for improvements on a bought kit! My apprenticeship was building the De Agostini HMS Victory. When I have time I’ll put the build record on here, the hard bit for me is putting a video together (I’m a bit of a technophobe!!)
Beautiful job.
I subscribed too!
Zukiman600 Thanks for that Zukiman, I’ve got another couple of projects to put online when I get the time!
I’m a plastic aircraft modeler. I feel inferior now. Your work is beautiful. A whole different level 👍
All mediums are different, although I’ve made plastic kits I’ve never achieved a very good finish! I’ve even seen paper model ships that are simply astounding!
I try to use whatever is in the kit, although I have a lot from other kits and some which I bought. I learned a lot building the Victory and tend to modify stuff if scale is wrong or just doesn’t look right!
Super job you did I really enjoyed watching your build come together. She's on my to do list when I finish my Syren!
You will enjoy the build, have a look to see if DeAgostini has still got special offer for Cutty?
@@makumjeff2257 That is to funny Jeff I was looking at it there this morning. I've just spent a bunch on rigging rope for my Syren so it will be next year now or the Admiral will have me walking the plank ;) BTW did you use the kit rigging or buy or make your own?
Nova_EC My other half went ballistic recently when I varnished a boat in the bedroom to avoid dust etc!!
Wow what a fantatic build ,your attention to details is to be commended well done and thanks for posting cheers
looks fabulous jeff, liked the idea of balsa wood in the hull, finish is great.This model i would like to try
I find that filling between the bulkheads helps to prevent creases when planking, and balsa is easiest to work👍
What 26 pikers gave this a thumbs down , you all deserve a swift kit up the arse .
Just wanted to see what I could do with extra pieces of wood etc, that I had accumulated!
Wow... this is a pretty awesome build! Truly amazing job, thank you for sharing!
This ship don't need sails. Tackle is enough to move ahead!
Probably right there😁
Amazing model! Where did you get the plans to work from?!
It was an Artisana kit, but like most model makers I made one or two changes to the original plans, (ie ships boats) . Must be a popular kit as price keeps going up!
makum jeff well you’ve done a fabulous job, very impressive.
Wow.....Bravo!
Cheers ‘Bud’, I’ve done a few ships now so decided during the ‘lockdown’ to do something different so I’ve ordered a Stagecoach!!
Beautiful build
Bee-yoo-t-ful! Thanks.
