- This is the seventy-sixth in a series of videos I’m going to produce to document the building of my Trumpeter 1:200 model Titanic. In this episode I cover fitting the compass platform and the forward dome cover over the grand staircase.
If you want to see more regular updates have a look at my Instagram page (same name as the channel). I post photos as I'm building there so you don't have to wait for the videos to be edited!

Seriously, your videos are outstanding and will be a source of inspiration and advice for thousands of model makers for years to come. Many thanks for your time, effort and enthusiasm 👍😊
Thanks Paul, means a lots. Glad they are enjoyed and appreciated!
Keep well,
Robbie
Somehow the algorithm dropped this off my feed but I’m so happy to be back watching again. I’m in awe of what you’re doing
Aah welcome back, we must all yield to the algorithm! Good to have you back 🙂
@@TheModelBoatGuy it’s an absolute pleasure. I’ve been following you since the early days in lockdown (when you had long hair and were spraying in the garden) so it’s a pleasure. I’m a model designer (wind tunnel models) for an F1 team and I’m genuinely blown away by your prowess and abilities. Cannot wait to see the finished piece
To hear Canon in D and see you work was a great mix.
Thanks, I do like a bit of Pachelbel!
Definitely don't have to be a modeler to appreciate the content in this channel. Nice work.
Thank you! Glad to hear it 🙂
Wow! I bit delicate the compas platform, for a sailing model ship! One must be careful when picking up your ship, out of the water!
Yeah it’s super delicate. Fortunately it’s right in the middle of the model so it’s relatively well protected!
@@TheModelBoatGuy I have to say, your model so far, has been my favourite of all the Titanic models on TH-cam with the most dedicated details on any model that I have seen on TH-cam! Keep up the great work!
Nicely done Rob, looks quite cosy now with the lighting. I think the crew will be a little happier when the steps are added to the compass stand!! JH ⚓😀
Haha steps are next on the list John! I’ve been looking forward to doing them, they are the ideal structure for PE really.
Hope all is going well on Olympic.
Cheers,
Robbie
@@TheModelBoatGuy Bilge keels now constructed but I have run into a little problem with the water intakes not being quite in the right place. Sorting that out now.🙄
Looking fwd to seeing the steps! The compass stand had been dispensed with by the time my time frame came about. I will use the compass though above the bridge later as they popped one up on the bridge roof in the 1920's.
Take it easy.

Gotta love a blooper! Nice details, she's really coming alive - thought of you last week as there was a bit on the news about a team scanning/photographing the wreck in high resolution - maybe some of your searching questions will now come to light 👍
Hi there! Well always interesting to see what they find on the wreck. Some of the big things are going to be too deeply buried to get much useful info from. But it’s always quite interesting to see how comparatively little we really know, things like the ventilators. Feels like I’m guessing a lot more than I’m working from reliable sources!
Happy new year btw 🙂
@@TheModelBoatGuy only the most hardened expert will notice if there's anything out of place, I'm in the camp of "if it looks right, it is right" ...and very Happy New year to you too 👍
Great work as always mate! It looks amazing!
Thank you!
Looking great Robbie...your lighting is fantastic..I somehow missed lighting my domes...oh well. Keep up the good work..very inspiring..:)
Hi there,
Oh no that’s a pain, could you do some rework to get some light through? I didn’t fit the lights surrounding the domes, I just rely on the light coming from the staircase itself.
Thanks for the support, I hope your models going well, you must be about done now?
Thanks,
Robbie.
@@TheModelBoatGuy I think I’m too far gone to add lighting to domes. Yep nearly done…lifeboats, rigging, and touch ups…:)
😂😂 Even got a blooper ! Nice job as always.
Bloody vacuum cleaner on the floor under the model 😅 always beeping away!
Outstanding as always Robbie. Happy new year Sir.
And to you, happy new year! Thanks 😊
‘So, without any further ado, let’s get on the crack’ what’s that all about ??? 😮😮😮
Another good Painting job with my eyes I don't think I would do small parts like that (the joys of getting older you have this to look forward to).
Haha well it comes to us all I guess. They are a pain those things, that and the people are the hardest paint jobs.
Thanks as always Mark,
Robbie
Great music in the background ;-)
Nice, new TMBG upload 😃👍
Thanks! You’re always very quick off the blocks!
Re the compass platform I believe it would have been planking, the structure that sits on the legs would have had minimal metal except maybe bronze etc. else it could have an effect on the readings.
Aaaaaaaah yes this is a good point and admittedly one I hadn’t thought of. So do you reckon the entire structure would have been wood, save for the legs?
@TheModelBoatGuy I believe the walls of the platform were wooden planked.
How do you get up to the compass platform ??
Great series of videos.
Well done.
There was a set of steps. I think I added them in a later video!
Random comment ahead. Most people would probably not chose Johann Pachelbel as music for their TH-cam video, but I sure would. Glad I am not the only one,
Haha glad to hear it, I quite like Pachelbel 🙂
Another great video! Thanks, Robbie. (BTW, is that the base of a Davy lamp you're using to heat your scalpel blade?)
Yes it is! Well spotted, it’s a requirement coming from Newcastle.
But it provides a much less sooty flame than a candle so it is quite good for the application
@@TheModelBoatGuy Thanks, Robbie. I have a long interest in mining, so thought it was a Davy. (Does your occasional Yorkshire accent have anything to do with family history 'oop noorrth'?)
Not many people could ‘Handle’ the background music 😂 Even if it is by Pachelbell, at least it’s a canon and related to a ship !! 😮
It’s a tenuous link but it works 😀
After you get the model completed are you to do sea trials?
I will do yeah, I’m going to do a float test soon, then once complete I’ll give it a sail
@@TheModelBoatGuy How much longer are you thinking until the model is complete?
What will you do when you finish the R.M.S Titanic?
Not sure yet, I’m going to do a video soon on next projects so I’ll have a think before then 🙂
@@TheModelBoatGuy Maybe the Lusitania or the Queen Mary would be cool
Offtopic question: what models have you build before the Titanic?
Well in truth not all that many.
I made a scratch built model Titanic about 14 years ago (the first video on the channel shows that).
Other than that I have done a scratch built HMS Hood, and a fishing boat.
But I’ve always built stuff, I tinker about with most things, steam engines, electronics etc. If you can disassemble it I am interested 😛
Are you based out of the north east by any chance? Sounds like you have some northern accent come out now and again lol
Hi there, I was brought up there. Near to Newcastle, but I don’t live round those parts anymore!
@@TheModelBoatGuy i thought i recognised the slight geordie in your accent! Comes out every now and again! Your model is coming on great. I have put my trumpeter on back burner as im focusing on hachette now. Using the detail kits etc from my trumpeter to detail up the hachette one.
Hi Robbie, do you have a spare front hawser 3d print
You’d be interested in selling
Sorry I’m contacting you this way
Hi Robert, unfortunately that is one of the few things I don’t have spares of! I only got one. There’s an email address on my channels homepage, if you send me a message there we can have a look at getting one ordered?
