I thank you for your service to our country. I've devoted 20 years 3 months and one tour in the Army myself. Now retired, I'm doing what your doing. I like the build your doing and looking forward to the finish...
you are one of the people i admire on this hobby , researching everything to the last detail, making corrections on the kit, adding all sorts of missing stuff etc. I doubt I'd have such patience, i much prefer to just build the kit straight away, so kudos to you sir
Thanks Mike! I honestly don’t do that “much” research. I benefit a lot from others who I consider subject matter experts. And yes, I too enjoy building a model straight out of the box after any big in-depth project. That’s why I have my little Ban Dai Star Wars kits sitting off to the side when I need a quit and easy break.
I was listening to music and then stumbled upon the two of you....I love creating and working with models (I am in the middle of handcrafting a double-hulled Hawaiian voyaging canoe...48" outriggers bow to stern....milled and carved the wood) and appreciate the challenge of working from scratch. I will be watching this project you are working on...it looks to be a real beauty! Thank you for your service (me....tour of duty Viet Nam 1967-1968 USARV). Best wishes to both of you.
First, thank you for your support of our men and women who have served and are in need. There are so many organizations out there doing the same thing, to all of them thank you as well. Great start Ben and it is very cool to see your wife participating in the build.. Never miss one of your posts, keep up the great work, looking forward to the next one
Great Video Ben and Nora.I love how You use your initiative and experience by using plastic card instead of throwing money at it with after market etch like most others do,These models cost enough as it is.Keep up the good work n HAPPY MODELLING
Glad to see this project start. I like your problem solving and modeling philosophy. I watch these in segments but appreciate the longer vids over several short ones.
Thanks David! I wrestle with that a lot. How long to make a video and how many to make. I felt like I could get away with this because almost all of the hull prep work is in one video. I could have cut a bunch of stuff out. But it still would have easily been an hour long.
Thankyou for your service bro... I'm ex-Navy Submariner retired...excellent build and it reminds me of old submariner qoute which goes like this..." There's only two two types of ships in the Navy... Submarines & Targets😁😎👍👌✌Peace!
Thank you for making this video i just bought a 1/350 scale model of the titanic and i found this video really helpful. its people like you guys who make my day happier.
Aircraft Maintainer for 35 years! Air Force! I loved everyday of it! I retired last April. I worked A-7's way back in the late 80's and the rest of my career from about 1991 was F-16's! It was such a wonderful career! Contrary to the t shirt I don't want my "MRE". :) I know this video is 2 years old, (How did you know I would be watching this two years later? ) :) but somthign that might be fun is artists doing paintings to hang on the walls of the build. Not sure what teh scale size of that would be and perhaps that is crazy I don't know. :)
On the rudder.....The zinc plates are called anodes. KUTGW brother 52:57 was priceless. That patch @ 59:20, just cut all that square instead of wasting time on trying to match curves. been there done that myself.
The Titanic an illustrated history is a great reference book. I have a 1/700 one that I plan on building when I get all of the supplies I need. Wish you all the best with your build.
Hi Ben. I was a model maker on the 1996 film. We had actual real life ship fitters come in and create the hull plating on the 44 foot model. I am very much enjoying your video build series. Could have used you on the film! I'm excited to buy this kit and begin. Thx man! Mac.
Hello!! Very happy to join the club! As a former NCO of the French Air Force, I friendly and respectfully salute you and your charming spouse. Thank you very much for the video.
Awesome! I'm building the 1/400 100th anniversary Edition from Revell at the moment. I love the History of the Titanic and the Ship itself. The work and detailing you put on it..... It's just *WOW*! In my opinion the next episode could be much longer. Wish it were online right now. Glad to see how it looks if you finish it. Greets from Germany.
Awesome video, both of you!! Great to see your wife getting involved. Mine is not interested in models, but does other crafts while I do mine. Keep up the good work. I'm getting ready to move, so waiting to start another ship until I get settled in the new house.
Lovely work sir. I watch Nigel and marvel at the work he is doing. I also appreciate the simpler "massaging" of what the kit gives you to correct and add detail. I look forward to the rest of this build. Also, either a screen grab from your portrait session or your wife's final product should end up framed on your backdrop wall . . .
Already on it. At a minimum it will be taped up for the next video and a frame will be in it’s future....after, it’s returned from the MOA, on loan of course 😉
That's one heck of a detailed model. Probably the best one so far. Speaking of which I haven't even started on both my 1/350 Lusitania and Titanic models yet which I bought back in '98, but then I want this one too.
Good to see you both this time , looking good , I am following Nigel’s build but it’s so good to follow your approach as well and looking forward to the next video, good idea about the people and the short story
Excellent vid, great start, cool format - the historical narratives really add to it. There's tons wrong with the kit itself as far as I know so great to see you fixing some of the more glaring issues. Look forward to the next installment.
Off to a great start. Been watching Nigel's as well. That build will make your head explode! Takes some nuggets to cut up a $350 kit like that. I like your approach too. The red came out good too. Looked like it was going to be too bright judging by the cap but it looks great. Can't wait for the next vid.
So happy I found this video. Really looking forward to the journey. I do not have the 1/200 scale but do have the Centenary Edition 1/400 Academy model I have not built yet. Hope watching you will help me get started. The Trumpeter kit here in Australia is about $600 so I may wait a while for that. 😀
Thanks ben for mentioning me. I am so honored you did so. I got more info ill share with you on the titanic, if you want to know. Thank you so much, I love what you've done so far!
Very first episode and we get an 80 minute video; hope this is a sign of things to come.👍😁 I'm only about 12 minutes in and I can't say Im all that impressed with the kit. Going by the flaws on the hull pieces, probably considered the two most important parts of the kit, it looks like you're going to be spending a lot of time fixing 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑖𝑟 𝑖𝑛𝑎𝑑𝑒𝑞𝑢𝑎𝑐𝑖𝑒𝑠 - not a great start. And 80 minutes just flew by. Loads of progress, probably because you've got help this time.😁 The "paint a passenger" scheme is genius, I wonder how many you'll get. My painting skills, or lack of, rule me out of helping but it should be a whole lot of fun, seeing what, or who, everyone sends in. I'm really looking forward to this build, especially as it's a passenger vessel, rather than a warship. Herself should have no trouble finding "Tales from the Titanic" for each episode; there's just 𝒔𝒐 much written about the ship, her passengers and the crew. Cheers for now, Dougie.
Great work Ben.. wish I was that far forward with mine!! I will be sending a court summons to you for copying my drill jigs lol. Mine are Stainless steel BTW. I would love to see how your stern plating looks under the paint.
Wow, really really impressive. Love your techniques and hobby skills. I notice that I'm a bit late watching this video, but I'm hooked. Thanks for this post. :)
First of all, I want to say thank you for your service. I was in the Marine Corps for 8 years. Actually this T-Shirt is perfect for me, because I was a 0341 I was in Mortars. I was a Mortarman. And yes I did call for fire. Perfect. I will be getting one, also to help other vets. Actually that is more important to me than anything else is to help other vets. Just make sure you get ALL of your V.A benefits ok. Ya'll take care.
I have stood in line at the V.A. for and am receiving, every benefit I qualify for. Thank you for emphasizing this. I do the same thing for everyone I run into.
Thank you very much for your answer, I have grouped all the questions on the subject At 55 minutes 02 in video build 1, you speak of a condenser, are the condensers correctly placed? In video 8, at 5 minutes 20, what paper do you use and how thick? In video 9, At 11 minute 11 what the colors please and what item to take (smooth or smoothest)? In video 11, at 15:07, what product did you use to fill the holes? Sorry for all these questions, but I find your videos remarkable and therefore, I try to take inspiration from your work. I wish you a good continuation and a very happy end of year celebration. thank you for everything
If you haven’t yet and get a chance. Check out the USS Yorktown in South Carolina. I stayed in it, ate in it and got to walk through it years ago. It’s a blast, if you are still able to do so.
Great to see you back modelling, and building my favourite ship 😊love it already looking great even early on 😊👍🏻some great tips there your videos are always awesome 😊hope you’re all doing ok 😊take care stay safe and look forward to the next vid😊
Well I’m in ny. I’ve always liked going to the model/ train shop to look around touch and talk with other modelers to get an idea of my builds. In nyc there is only one shop and it’s in Times Square . I hate and love how it’s moved to social media now
Awesome! I’ve got the 1/350 kit, and this video shows a lot of cool stuff! I’ve had the kit for over 10 years, and this made me exited to finally start it. I’m looking forward to seeing more!
That's a good idea, but I'm not sure they make them small enough for the size she broke. Its rare that I even use bits that big on these models. Usually they are much much smaller.
Yeah she has the Maker. It WILL cut all the way through the styrene, but it was going to be a bunch of trial and error to pick the best setting for that. Since we were already cutting 3/4 of the way through, that was more than good enough for what we needed.
@@marktaylor9975 Awesome! I'm a sucker for their electrics and homebuilds! Yip....loooove the Pacific Extension, that's some serious railroading and scenery!
50:00 You could use Evergreen polystyrene T bar for the keel. It doesn't have the rib down the middle, but it wouldn't have snapped like the resin keel.
Looking forward to this build. For paints, I primarily use Mr Hobby and Model Master, as most all Trumpeter kits call for those. I do have some Tamiya paints for shades not covered by the other two.
I've been looking forward to this build since you previewed the Titanic last year. 3-D printed stuff can be fragile and rule one after you've repaired it - the missing part will appear!
Great video thanks. You are drilling out all the portholes. Is that because the included light kit shines light down into the hull? I ask because the kit appears to light up only the main deck and above? I'm not sure. Thank you.

Really liked the tag team modeling/history approach - I hope we will continue to see you working as a team, thank you.
The size of this thing is nuts!!!! Also really loving the team work guys! Looking forward to see how this build goes! Thank you both for sharing!
On your stern rudder them little plates you coulden't figer out they was actually zink plates

That a nice big model..Wicked!
For all those holes, perhaps a "manicure drill" might be more useful. Amazing job! Greetings from Queretaro Mexico!
Tip, If ye paint the area below the waterline wi white first before the "anti fouling" red, the colour wi show better.
Nice job!! Thanks for the video 👍👍😉
looking forward to the next video!
It’s already out.
So i'm glad i'm not the only one thinking that this model has a wrong rudder shape :D
Yeah this was one of the very first things I heard about the kit. Not sure how they messed it up.
loved the detailing
Thanks!
Great you finally started!
Awesome! Thanks for video
Hi, is there a video with the rigging?? Amazing job with this kit!!
Not yet. I’m hoping that will be just a few videos down the road. I’m thinking all of the assembly will have to be complete.
Great job... the information you provide is fascinating!!! Can't wait for the next video!!!

Nope! It’s alive and well. You will probably just have to order your kits online, these days.

Very cool! I build a Titanic Academy 1/400, but 1/200? Amazing!!!!
Thank you guys
Instead of using flexible, breakable drill bits, try using Milling Machine Bits. They are much, much stronger!
That's a good idea, but I'm not sure they make them small enough for the size she broke. Its rare that I even use bits that big on these models. Usually they are much much smaller.
Look forward to following this build I too have this kit will get to it one day
I have used a cricket extensively for cutting styrene for my 1/270 Reliant model. The newer model does this a lot better than the older model Cricket.
Err I mean the Silhouette.
Yeah she has the Maker. It WILL cut all the way through the styrene, but it was going to be a bunch of trial and error to pick the best setting for that. Since we were already cutting 3/4 of the way through, that was more than good enough for what we needed.
Ahoy there great channel , that kit is very on demand . I scratched built her sister Olympic RC on my channel 198 cm .
