I really enjoy the quality of this kit! Although this kit has the largest number of parts I have ever built. I decided to fill all the spaces to facilitate the future planking process...

Even if I never build such a complex model, watching you work is an inspiration
Thank you so much!
There are those that are skilled. There are those that are gifted. Then rarely...there are those that are both. Bravo.
Thank you very much!
مذهل للغاية !!! عمل في غاية الإتقان و الإحترافية . من محاسن الصدف ان اجد مثل هذه القناة إنها مدرسة متميزة في هذا المجال . كل الشكر و الإمتنان لك .
شكرًا لك!
Absolutely fantastic work!
Looking forward to the next video!
Thank you! I am working on it...
Много нового оборудования!!!работа как всегда на высоте👍👍👍
Спасибо!
Да такой фрегат требует много инструмента - все что на коллекционировала за 2 года)))
The nice part about having more parts and detail in the structure is that you have to do a lot less demolition and modification which saves so much time. Thank you Olha!
Very true!
Debo quitarme el sombrero delante de esta señora, no necesita hablar para realizar un tutorial excelente. Mi admiración y respeto para una profesional.
¡Muchos gracias!
What patience you have, it takes a lot of work to get to this end result, WOW!
The next year will be exciting to watch and I wish you that it brings everything you want.
Thank you for sharing your incredible talent with us!
Thank you very much!
Next year will be my symbol on the Eastern calendar))) Year of the Tiger - in the year of the patron animal usually all wishes and plans come true)))
That's amazing, the patience and attention to detail you show.
Thank you!
I am just in Awe of your skills and determination to build this ship..! XXX
Thank you!
I am so looking forward to seeing you do the planking on this one 😀
I also can't wait to start planking. But first I need to prepare her for this))) So I think there will be another issue before I publish the planking!
I'm glad I read the description because I was confused at how much extra parts you were adding to a kit. I still don't really understand why it's necessary since kits usually just plank across the ribs, but you clearly know a lot more than I do about ship building so I trust the finish result will be fantastic, and that's what's important.
In this kit, the planks are in one layer (because part of the frame will be open on the right side) so to facilitate the process of laying them, it is better to make a perfectly flat surface at first! Also, over time, such a planking without filling the spaces over time is deformed under the influence of humidity and bends (dents appear) between the bulkheads...
I love watching someone great at their craft.
Thank you!
if you want the hull of a shipmodel to be sturdy this is the way to do it. In the beginning days of my wood modeling a pensioned professional modelmaker that worked at the Rotterdam Maritime Museum showed me the logicalness of doing this. I may not always do the whole hull but i wil allways strengten the bow and sternsection and pre sand the parts down before glueing them in place. Well done!!
That's right!
This was explained to me by my trainer of shipmodeling, when he "disassembled my first model into splinters" - virtually of course))) And I also did not understand this until I tried it in practice! Apparently every beginner should step on this "rake" to understand this!
This is craftsmanship at its best. Awesome!
Thank you!
Superb !
You make it look so easy. Just brilliant work. Excellence.
you are doing an amazing job, thank you for sharing your amazing work.
Thank you so much!
You did very well with the compound angles, hard at first to figure out I know done a few of them for the Constitution. But you have done a much better job at them than I did. I can't wait to get my eyes fixed so I can continue, one day I hope to be just as good as you!! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much!
I wish you recovery!
Wow, what a work ... but worth for another great model Looking forward seeing more! All the best for you and your loved ones for 2022!! 🥂
Thank you so much!
All the best to you too and happy holidays!
Grand Bravo merci pour cette belle vidéo
Mon plaisir!
You have done an amazing job on the hull so far. I bet figuring out how to cut those compound angles about drove you nuts. Looking forward to seeing more on this build.
You'ld be astonished if you could see how easily she came up with them... I know I was. It just flowed.
Thank you very much!
That was the most interesting process in this work))) - the most boring was sanding!
You should learn to meditate through sanding. Life won't be the same again. 😉
@@OlhaBatchvarov
The sanding, and the filling, and the sanding.................
It's like the Space Shuttle. Every block of insulation tile was a custom fit just about.
Well done! Amazing craftmanship!
Thank you!
You continue to inspire me to build better
WOW - Thank you!

I am literally blown away by your talent Olha :o This is really an amazing work and it needs lots of patience and you just nailed it !! That hull looks just perfect. I am really impressed how this turned out and I can not admire you enough for that !!
Thank you very much!
I really want to make this frigate the perfect model - so I'm in no hurry to build her. I always have the same problem - not enough wood to fill the spaces and that's why I do it in part. But for this ship, I patiently bought a package of basswood once a month and filled all the spaces)))
@@OlhaBatchvarov I am sure this will be a real stunner, because I see you put all the work and love into it.
Great work, great video!
Thank you very much!
Very nice work. That is going to give you a near perfect substrate for applying the planking. 👍👍
I used to work on card stock ship models. One build was a scratchbuilt design I was doing for an online contest run by Dimitri at Digital Navy. To fill the spaces in the ships framing I used pink insulation foam.
Thank you!
Yes, I also use this insulation on small models that are veneered.
Absolutely stunning and gorgeous. And the boat looks good too.😁😜
Thank you very much!
That is a really nice job you have made so far. You are obviously a very talented craftswoman. Well done.
Thank you very much!
Nice work and worth the time to get fair planking!
Absolutely!
Fred good to see you are watching sites and builders,

Wow!!! That is looking great:)
Thank you very much!
That's a lot of work!
But it was fun to cut pieces at an angle))
Outstanding
Thank you!
Olga, I am inspired and somewhat intimidated by the excellence of your work. I am currently building an Amati kit of Vanguard. It is difficult and takes real patience to work at that level of detail and master the tools needed for it. Perhaps the most difficult part is understanding all the names of the various parts of the ship and its rigging. It's a whole new language for me and the instructions expect you to understand all of it. I was wondering what kind of preparation you had for your ship building work. It is a pleasure to watch your work.
Oh, I understand you well - I've been learning the terminology from the beginning - in English. This is a new language for me in the literal sense)))
But if you build and study in order, then everything is not so difficult...
Practice, small kits to start. Patience.
Da kann ich nur beipflichten. Baue selber die Bounty von del Prado. Bin mit der Takelage dran und muss noch die Segel nähen und diverse Restarbeiten an Rumpf und Deck ausführen. Der Bauplan von del Prado ist ein Witz. Oft auch noch falsch dargestellt. Maßstab 1 zu 47
As always a lovely build, all the best for 2022.
Thanks, you too!
Beautiful video
Thank you!
A master craftswoman. Mind blowing skills. Especially when you spread the putty with an Amex card.
Thank you! Yes, plastic cards are a very useful tool)))
👌Your work is so amazing 👍
Thank you so much 😀

I just finished my hms victory thx for the tips and i made the figure head good
That's awesome!
Congratulations!
Was für eine Arbeit . Wird der Rumpf jetzt noch beplankt
Einen guten Rutsch ein gesundes und gesegnetes Jahr 2022
Viele Grüsse Frank
Ja, naturlich wird es beplankt jetzt. Eine sehr netter modelle, eigentlich.
Danke!
Geez, I wish I had your workshop.🙂
Happy new year great job!!👍👍👍
Olha wonderful work again can not wait to see the the planking stage next 🏆. Great work again Olha.
And a happy new year for 2022.
Thank you very much!
Apparently before the planking, there will be another video about the preparation for this process. I also need to prepare all the parts of backbone!
Olga, I am in awe of your skill set and attention to every little detail on each of your builds. Besides giving you freedom in anchoring hull planking, would you please share any other thoughts on why you prefer to fill the cavities between hull bulkheads?
And, may I add, I hope 2022 is a great year for you and your family.
Thank you very much!
But this is really only for the perfect planking! This not only facilitates the planking process, but also prevents deformation of the planks from changes in humidity, especially on such a large hull. This is a very boring job, but if you do not do it you will always regret just looking at the model. Now I live in a very humid climate and see my two models, that even for small hulls in this area I need to completely fill the space!
Ich bin begeistert vor ihrem Können. Respekt.
Danke schön!
Intricate work, great to watch 👏 Thanks 😉
Health and lots of good luck in the new year from Berlin 🎁

Your skills, knowledge, and techniques are inspiring. It's been ten years since the last ship I've built. After watching the first three videos of this build, today I started my next build. Keep the videos coming.
Oh sorry, I'm not subscribed... And now that's corrected.

И вас с наступающим!
Wonderful job. I've enjoyed all your videos. Your skill as a shipwright is amazing. Have you ever tried dry wall compound to fill low spots on the hull? Sands so much easier than Bondo.
Thank you very much!
This putty is the most suitable of all that I have tried. And I'm sure with it that my layer of boards will not come off the hull together with the putty.
W ow......ich finde es toll wie das machen . ich selber habe vor jahren mit der Bounty angefangen und bin nun nicht mehr weiter mit dem Bausatz gekammen
Danke!
Ich habe auch Bounty)))
To think back in the wooden ship building days these were made completely by hand, no power tools, and no laser cut parts. I know I would not want to do it that way, tough enough even WITH power tools. I can never seem to get past the hull into planking. I have only one hull fully planked, and it looks like crap. Started a Victory and got to the planking stage and of course messed up the lines for the setting planks. The only one I have built that actually is looking good is a Dumas Chris Craft, i'll leave doing the classics to those who can build. Amazing work here .
Thank you very much!
I know that feeling with planking! On my VICTORY, I probably tore off the planks three times and started over, oh no - I finished her first planking on the 4th try! So with that hull, the iron was my best friend))) And probably a whole bottle of PVA was spent there!
@@OlhaBatchvarov I made the mistake of using CA. No going back with that unless I soak the whole thing in Acetone. :( Live and learn, they are nothing like building an RC airplane. LOL
a happy new year 🎆 🥰
Thank you so much!
All the best to you too and happy holidays!

I'm late to the show. Why the vertical planks in the middle of the hull ? Great watch !!
Welcome aboard!
This is the frames. This part of the hull will not be planked to show the actual number of frames!
wow :)
Thank you for sharing. One question...why all the 5mm slates running vertical on one side and not the other?
My pleasure!
Because the open part of the frames will be only on one side, on the other side everything will be planked...
Very good! I understand why. But I’ve never fully filled a hull prior to planking. I do see several advantages to planking a basically solid hull. Your videos are great. But can you explain why you make this step? As you know, I have this kit in my shop. It is not next, but I am considering filling hulls with my next build Niagara from Model Shipways. Confederacy may be next… THANK YOU OLHA!!
Thank you very much!
This not only facilitates the planking process, but also prevents deformation of the planks from changes in humidity, especially on such a large hull. This is a very boring job, but if you do not do it you will always regret just looking at the model. Now I live in a very humid climate and can see on my two models, that even for small hulls in this area I need to completely fill the space!
Muito top
Obrigado!
干得漂亮！小姐姐。
谢谢
Good to see a female ship builder in the Modelling community
Thank you!
Great build. I have a question.
Why did you make a "solid " hull as opposed to frame and plank? I understand it would be more solid ( and heavy), but did the blocks really make it easier to cover?
Thank you very much!
There are many advantages to this! The most important thing is that it will make the planking process 10 times easier. You can bend the planks with a soldering iron right on the hull and also nail the clamps where you need!
Secondly, you will get a perfectly flat surface and it will not deform over time (usually after a few years the location of the bulkheads and the concavities between them become visible).
its likely I would have gone with styrofoam instead of basswood.
both are light and easy to work into shape but one is cheaper.
maybe its the hammered in notion from back when I was studying carpentry "if it doesnt show it doesnt matter."
but as a miniature modeler I gotta respect the lengths of effort taken with the ship.
I use foam for small models that are planked with veneer. But for such a large hull, it is better to use linden or basswood, because I will bend the boards with a soldering iron directly on the hull. That's something you can't do on a hull with foam.
@@OlhaBatchvarov I didnt consider that, then it certainly makes sense to use a material that doesnt instantly melt or burn.
Bravo Zulu.
Thank you!
Another great video! I was wondering why the saw blade on your table saw appears to be offset on the arbor? It looked a little scary when you turned the saw off and the blade rotation became easy to see.
Thank you very much!
It was created by the manufacturer - I'm used to this location!
@@OlhaBatchvarov Like Capt. RD, I think the blade on your circular saw isn't mounted correctly. It appears to not be seated properly on the shaft and is off centre - it could come loose, which would be very dangerous. You should also find it cuts a lot better when it is seated correctly, too. If this is how the saw was when you received it, then it wasn't set p correctly at the factory.
Your videos and your ship builds are magnificent!

Hello Olha. I am very impressed with your work. You are my inspiration! A question: what size of wood blocks did you buy to make the filling pieces between bulkheads, and where did you get it? Thank you in advance
Such blocks can be found in craft stores. I took a bag with different thicknesses, because the distances between the bulkheads are also different...
@@OlhaBatchvarov Thank you very much. I am to receive this kit tomorrow. Didn't you make any more videos of this kit past #10?
great model, and good job so far; as an aside, the problem you had in the first few minutes, at the table saw, was a 'kick-back', your push stick on the right, touched the wood on the near side of the blade (this goes towards you, and down to the table), this extra pressure, when the offcut let go made the wood grab the blade, and flung it towards you, that is why most large tablesaws have guards which press downwards from above, NOT a danger at your scale of projects, but just a caution for later. ( use a push-stick like other woodworkers use, and press from abouve the wood, even the offcut piece, this stops the blade grabbing and throwing it, NEVER push towards the blade (or guard fence, if you have a small distance between it and the blade), these give the blade friction to the wood, and a chance for disaster). another safety tip, most woodworkers stand to the SIDE of the wood/saw, so if this does occur, the wood flings CLEAR of you, not straight into you, perhaps stabbing you or knocking you over.
Thank you for your concern!
This is probably the only drawback of this saw - it is high-speed and has a powerful "kick back"! But I'm used to it!
@@OlhaBatchvarov that's alright, I was also commenting so other people know what happened, as Bigger models and other larger projects can be made this way, and for those scales of work any mistakes can be far worse than in your work, so the more informed people are, the more they know the risks of doing things, the better.
Have you ever built any steam sloops like the USS Kearsarge or the CSS Alabama.
Not yet)))) but I really like Alabama!
Why are you adding wooden blocks between the bulkheads?
There are so many benefits!
More importantly, the hull will not twist over time. Especially such a long model.
Second, it will be much easier (10 times) for you to arrange planking. Especially when it is only 1 layer of planks.
In addition, you have a larger area for gluing the strips, you can hammer nails with clamps anywhere or bend the planks directly on the hull with a soldering iron...
