I definitely picked the wrong kit to be my first ship in 10 years, but the USS Coronado is finally into the home stretch, *most* of the PE railings are drying now. It'll still need some oil weathering but its getting there.

The stern quarter of Amundsen's Gjøa, rudder and prop left of center, with the skiff (top left), and the Øselver dangling from their davits. The Gjøa's hull is etched from years in ice, or . . . perhaps from poor workmanship, as this is just a model after all. Those iron rivets and drifts are simply dots of glue? You've got to be kidding me.
Gjøa's head, with fouled anchor and Inuit kayaks packed all over the place. A real mess of chains, ropes, lines, cables, strands, and some gears tucked in behind the deadeyes. Sails above, with their reefing lines dangling. Not a crew on deck, and it appears to be headed straight for the bookshelf! A fine mess!
Aboard the Gjøa, showing an Inuit sled next to the pop-up galley. To the left, the bulwarks, with the pins and shrouds, with their deadeyes neatly painted. In the background (looking fore) one of the loos, and the companion way. It is very important to not confuse the two.
It's nice to just sit with something made from nothing. 3/8" to the foot; scratch built (anchors, windlasses, etc. from Bluejacket out of Maine). #craft #shipmodels #Amundsen #models

Wouldn’t we all love to open gifts and then play with our toys if they were super fun models like these? Well done, @horridperson.bsky.social! This is a lovely shuttle!

43 years ago today the keel of USS Vincennes was laid in Pascagoula, MS.
The real ship took 1.5 years to build... this model took 8!
At least the Navy didn’t have to rebuild what Dragon messed up 😄

On this day in 2022 the Nord Stream pipeline was blown up.
Years earlier, the Solitaire laid hundreds of km of it — now scratch-built in 1:400 by Gabriéle Glücks, award-winning at NAVIGA-C in Budapest.

🚢 Moving a ship model that weighs as much as a small car? No problem… for our Conservation team.
This 1929 1:48 scale model of the SS ORONTES has sailed from the lab to our Passengers gallery — ready to tell stories of voyages, war service and migration.

To date, my one and only ship build - 1:700 HMS Nelson although I have 1:600 HMS Belfast and 1:350 HMS Dreadnought in the stash #histscalemodels #scalemodels #shipmodels
Three hugely important mid-18th century Dutch ship models, kept in three separate museums in two countries, separated soon after being built, finally reunited through the power of 3D scanning! #shipshapes2018 #shipmodels #reunitedanditfeelssogood @rijksmuseum @KUBEN_Arendal
