- Welcome to My step-by-step guide on building the iconic Santa Maria ship model from Heller. This video will take you through the entire process, from the initial unboxing to the final display of the completed model.
In this video, we’ll start by exploring the Heller kit, which includes all the parts and instructions needed to build the Santa Maria. We’ll familiarize ourselves with these components, ensuring we understand each piece’s role in the construction.
The build begins with the assembly of the hull, the backbone of the ship. . Following the hull assembly, we’ll move onto the deck and masts, showing you how to secure these elements to create a sturdy and realistic model.
The final stages of the build involve painting and adding the sails. We’ll discuss the best techniques for these tasks, helping you achieve a lifelike finish that truly brings Santa Maria to life.
Whether you’re a seasoned model builder or a beginner, this video aims to provide a comprehensive guide to constructing the Santa Maria model. I hope you’ll join us on this exciting journey of creation and discovery. Enjoy the build!"
I am just coming back to modeling after 48 years! I have ordered a small wooden dory to get my eye in again. I will follow this with the Oseberg to practice planking, but watching & listening to your encouraging words I will follow that up with something much more complicated than I originally had in mind. Thank you.
Stay strong! Have FUN! 🫡😊
Please don't worry about the length of your videos. Anyone watching them is doing so because they share your love of model making and I'm sure that they enjoy the long format of them. They are a wonderful resource so thank you so much for making them available particularly to those of us that are just starting out.
Fair winds to you Alex.
Thank you! Stay safe!
A perfect video from start to finish! I enjoy when you make the longer walk-thru videos, they truly help in understanding.
Thank you! Stay safe! And Thank you for being here for so long!
Welcome back, fun, relaxing video…what a superb model! Thanks Andrew😊
Thank you! Glad you like it
Нет слов, чтобы описать свое восхищение!!! Прослушал перевод с помощью Яндекса и удивился тем философским мыслям, которые вложил в создание модели автор!!!
Thank you! Stay safe! 👍😊🇵🇹
I love this video build! Not only do you do amazing work, in all your videos I have seen over the past few years, but you stated something I have re-learned in the past 6 months. With my father-in-law living with us, with Alzheimer’s, I haven’t been able to build and I have rediscovered the passion, the joy, and the art of our hobby. When the day comes when I get my hobby room back, I will get to be that little kid again, and enjoy the passion of the detail I have at times overlooked trying to crank out models. Thank you for your videos and reminding me of this. Be well and keep up the beautiful work my friend!
Honored! Stay safe 🙂👍🇵🇹
You do such a wonderful job with all of your models. Thank you for your videos, they are informative and entertaining to watch.
Thank you
Glad I saved this for my Sunday night viewing. Excellent build of a beautiful ship and superbly detailed. Thank you Alex.
Thank you! Glad that it was entertaining! 😊🇵🇹👍
This was a lovely build Alex. I found it so very cathartic and relaxing. The choices of soft jazz music in the most part was excellent. I really enjoyed the whole experience. Thanks so very much.
My pleasure! Thank you for taking the time to comment:)
Gracias por terminar la serie de videos sobre la Santa María, Maestro, los voy a guardar para en un futuro cuando me arme de valor me sirvan para comenzar en el apartado de modelismo de Barcos, para mi es una asignatura pendiente, un abrazo desde Madrid, España y nuevamente gracias, te sigo
Muchas Gracias! Saludos de Porto, Portugal!
Hi Andrew I am Paula’s husband Mark as a boy I used to build models but as I got older and children came along life just got in the way but seeing you build these models it’s starting to get my interest going again I love your videos and I think I am going to start building again thank you so much for getting my interest started again keep up the good work fellow modeller.
Honored! 🇵🇹👍😊
A beautiful production Alex, wonderful narration. You have a great eye for colour.
Thank you! I try! 😊🇵🇹👍
Lavoro straordinario, è mia intenzione realizzare questa nave meravigliosa. Il tuo video così esaustivo, con le tecniche da apprendere, saranno per me fondamentali. Grazie di ❤e complimenti
Grazie! 👍🇵🇹
Was waiting ages for your finishing of this model after watching the first two parts. i love how you explain away overscale parts when rigging, modelling should be about fun and the end result looks almost museum ready. your wood paintwork on the hole is exquisite even if it constantly changes colour due to filming. i bought this model after your first video piqued my curiosity and modified it for accuracy before i learnt there is no accurate model of the Sant Marie! I paused my build when the fine and fiddley rigging stole my smile. Big clumsy fingers and thumbs, tweezers and magnifying head set and thin bendy yards alongside zero experience did not help me. But your final video helped me see it in a new light. why oh why did i have to included the crew?
Your videos are great and some of the best narrated out there!
Thank you so much! Good luck for your "Santa Maria"🇵🇹👍😊
I bet that producing such an enjoyable, long and educational video is about as much work intensive than building such a sailing ship model, so massive respect for that mate, you living legend :)
And you STILL call me Legend? I release you from that burden my friend!! 😂😝 Yes it is. People often don t realize what efort goes into such a thing... Its not drama.. and you know it! I hope you And yours are well And safe my Bavarian Friend!!
Great work. I am a old modeler and your ship is extremely well thought out. Don't sell yourself short.
I always wanted to try a ship. Built like hundreds of cars, planes, choppers, tanks.
Rigging looks really challenging.
Cheers
Cheers! Thank you! 👍😊🇵🇹
Very well done, Alex. I am a fan of the way you present, show what you're doing, explain and share the fun that is modeling for you. I also find a lot of peace and calm when on the bench.. thanks for sharing your journey.
Thank you for being part of it!
Today I was presented with this model, thanks for the wonderful and detailed assembly video! 👁
Always glad to see a new video from you. I always enjoy them.
Beautiful and thank you, you have a relaxing and inspiring voice. This will be my next fun project.
Great video! So nice to see you back. Beautiful wood effect paintwork and stunning rigging!
Thanks for your kind words about me. Much needed, as my mojo has taken a dip lately, but I'm getting it back...
Looking forward to seeing more Victory and Vespucci...
Stay strong Rupert! 👍👍👍😊
This was a wonderful build you did here Alex, beautiful even, but what really resonated with me with this video was where Alex talked about that sense of peace building models can bring. At this stage of my life, I feel I need that peace, which is why I have returned to building kits after a gap of 50 years. Will I be able to build as well as Alex did here? Very unlikely, but that focus where it's just you and the model, nothing else, is what I am really after. My kit building skill will progress as I make mistake after mistake. It's part of the journey, not to be feared but embraced!
its a nice build ,well i prefer longer videos so i can sit in my chair and watch the full build with a nice cup of tea or coffee
Greetings brother Alex. Not only relaxing for you to build but also for me to watch. Takes a lot of patience to tie all that rigging. Worry not about the length. I've spent much more time on hangouts. Now for some reason I have to watch Master and Commander again
That is an awsome movie mu friend! Stay safe! 😊👍
Ótimo trabalho Alex. Eu adoro assistir seus vídeos. Sempre divertido e educativo. Obrigado
Obrigado!
😮 Total Awesomeness😮
Alex Modeling your utube videos are awesome my friend
Thanks
Thank you for a great tutorial. I just bought the kit after watching the video and looking through some scrap wood in my tool shop, I will replace the stand with one made of teak. 🇳🇴
Nice!! 👍😃
Wowowowow that's A INCREDIBLE Build.Alex.!!😯😯🥰🥰🥰👏👏👏👏💯💯💯💯
Thank you! 🇵🇹👍😊
Dear Alex, all your works such like this one of SantaMaria here, are so awesome and nice to watch, like the narrating - the Music - the Camworks... Man, i must give you my big Obrigado to you from Germany !!! We had 5 times beautiful holiday seasons within 10 years in your awesome Country. Portugal is mine, and my wifes second HOME !!! ❤❤❤ All the Best!!! Annette & Frank !!! LIKE !!!
Honored! Stay safe! Portugal will always be here for you! Thank you
An absolute beauty. Some interesting techniques too. Can't wait to try a ship, it looks very different to the kind of modelling I m used to.
Thank you! Stay safe! 😊👍
Outstanding work Alex
Thank you 🇵🇹👍
Alex Modeling you are good at building Models and airbrush painting my friend
Good to see you again alex, thumbs up
Yet another great build and enjoyable video, Alex.
Thank you! 👍😊
Standing rigging was usually treated with tar which stiffened and preserved them. Running rigging on the other hand has to run through deadeyes and other items to lower and raide sails, drop anchors, raise ensigns etc.
Very enjoyable video, relaxing, informative :)
Ahaha.. thanks 👍
Fantastic build there. Well done my friend 👍
Thank you 🇵🇹🙂
I like your way of doing it. That was my first ship to build. What I did different though is I made the lower deck open and decorated with stuff. I like this model, very good one
That was a great video Alex, did really enjoy it. The model turned out great, you can be proud of the result. Nice to see how you explain all your techniques, did learn some new things that will help me for sure !! Keep posting such nice videos, so they will help others to make nice models !!
Thank you! Stay safe!
A beautiful production Alex !!!🥰👌
Un montage vraiment pas mal ...Congrest !! Bonne vidéo , merci ...
Great inspiring work Alex!
Thank you!
Another very nice build. I hope to build a 'wooden' ship like this someday but it'll have to wait for after I'm retired (another 1.5 yrs) because it will take a lot more time than my typical models. I don't think I'd be as brave as you in using enamels, but you certainly make the most with them, at least more than I ever could. Looking forward to your next build.
Thank you very much! 😊👍
Enjoyed that a lot, thanks.
Thank YOU 👍🇵🇹🙂
Nice work 👍
Thank you
Wow 🤘 Love it 😍
I was completely flabbergasted, admiring you modeling of this vessel.
Prior of modeling, do you consult encyclopedias concerning the vessels that you are modeling?
Keep up the good work.👍
A few years ago i didn t. Now i search for the most info i can get
Ahoj Alexi barevné provedení modelu je perfektní, co se týče takeláže plast a dřevo je společně těžko slučitelny ...třeba vyměnit plastové stěžně a ráhna za dřevěné by nebyl špatný nápad, zvedlo by to model o level víš a hlavně by se tolik neprohýbala pod napínáním. Lanoví dost ošemetná věc
složitost bych volil asi podle měřítka.. jinak parádní práce.
Thank you! 👍🇵🇹😊👌
I really hope that one day you can try build on your own one of the most beautiful ships. It was
Not the real ship but who cares. Owe like the beautiful things first. This ship is Neptune, it is from the pirates movie, it is much nicer as the black pearl and boy just watch the beautifu balconies it has. You will love it. Plus there is no one on RUclips or in the internet who made this copy. I don’t know why.
Cheers 🍻
Thank you ❤️
~ 23:25…lot going on in life for me lately… your speeches about modeling gives me hope for the hobby again. so much happened i stopped building and i always wanted to go back but never found the time, you encourage me to make more time and realize how precious this hobby of art really is. much love alex🫶
To you too! Stay safe, strong!!
I really enjoyed to see your build model, more over its really beautiful ship model. But sadly this model doesn’t release in Indonesia 🇮🇩
Thank you! Stay safe! 🇵🇹👍
Sama-sama bro. (U welcome bro)
il est superbe !
j'ai commencé cce montage aussi.. mais j'ai laché en cours.. trop de difficulté pour moi avec les cordages, et les pieces qui n'arretent pas de se decoller...
A la base je monte de l'automobile.. j'ai voulu tenter un navire avec ce Santa Maria... j'ai vite dechanté lol ..
Alex Modeling my hobbies are painting 🖼 and listening to shortwave and ssb iam thinking about getting my ham license
Radio.. interesting 👍
Very nice! Can you please tell the technical data of your model? Lenght over all, width, height etc?
Sehr schön und realistisch dargestellt👍 Wo kann ich denn die Holzblöcke und Stoffsegel kaufen?
у звезды есть такая же модель 1 в 1. собирал такую
Так Звезда эту модель от Heller перепаковывает и не только эту .
Does the Original Santa Maria still exsist?
Stranded on December 25, 1492 and dismantled for settlement construction.
I build this model in 1992, the 500th Ephemeris of Christopher's arrival at Americas.
I prefer to paint by hand with a brush it's kwicker and you can get more details on the model spraying is crap in my view brushing is best
Alex Modeling how was you and your wife and kids Thanksgiving my friend
It was a nice day. Hope yours was also
ficou muita porreiro...
Obrigado. Abraço
Алекс , неужели вы не могли найти нормальных нитей , эти страшно лохматятся, весь вид портят.
Cadê o castelo de proa???
Sumiu!!!
Congratulations first of all. How many hours of work did the caravel take?
