Красивая работа, хорошо что звезда сохранила и до сих пор производит эти пресс формы, почти ничего не меняя в них, я сам первый раз столкнулся с кораблем из этой серии британской "Бригантиной" в масштабе 1:100, в 1989 году, тогда она стоила 3 рубля 50 копеек советских денег, фирмы звезда еще не сушествовало, выпускал какой то завод игрушек, она и сейчас продается примерно за 50 долларов сша, внутри все то же самое, только новая упаковка. лайк)))
Great build. I often find some of the older kits with horrible flash, and fit issues and such, are often more rewarding once you finish them than some of the modern kits with flawless engineering that just fall together.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this video Alex. That was a very interesting build. I have been an armor guy all my model building career, but do like to see a good ship built every now and then. This one was it. Thanks for sharing that.
Hi Alex, It's been a while my dear friend. Although I haven't commented, I have been watching your many video's. I felt I really needed to commented how these older sailing ships are truly works of art. Thanks for building and sharing these. I think you will be responsible for many of these being bought, painted and weathered as you so demonstrated. Alex, your skills have become amazing over the past few years and to think you actually were considering giving up this hobby! I think all that saw this buildup would agree that would have been a tragedy as this video clearly demonstrates. I hope my calls for you to continue making your art had perhaps a little something to do with your continuing to make these video's and sharing them with all on TH-cam. Thanks my friend, this one is another winner !!!
Does anyone have any insights into the usual, (if there was a usual), color to the bulkwards of their ships. The red that was used is the well known British paint Color. The USS Constitution was known to have had green as its first iteration. Could be an interesting bit of minutiae. Nice build, though.
Great to see the whole process of your build after following it on Facebook. I did need a wee toilet break and snack refill in the middle, hehe. I like the way you did the hull halves seperatly. That is a good trick I will use on mine. Lovely result and a joy to watch.
you were both almost right with those side riggings. the vertical lines are straight and tense the horizontal ones are bent. yes they are used for ladders but they also support the masts. watching this cuz i also just bought this kit, very nice how you did it :D
I'm seriously considering departing from my norm of WWII armor and aircraft to partake in such an endeavor building one of these majestic war ships. Outstanding work Alex and your attention to detail is amazing. The rigging came out fantastic and I think the model looks just as presentable with furled sails. Thanks for sharing and cheers to you mate.
A nother great video! I thought the Acheron was red.... well I say red but I mean more of a maroon color. I have nothing other than Masters and Commanders to go by though. Great build! Don't be sorry for the long videos, it's very cool for us to be able to have time enough to immerse ourselves into the work.
Wonderful work... lots of dedication and patience to produce a great battle ship! Glad you didn't use the plastic sails as she looks better so open with her rigging
I've always thought that fully-rigged ship models look , I don't know , more realistic ? Definitely when it's on a stand or in a cabinet . There's no 'breeze' to billow the sails ! So , either open-rigged or furlled sails for me . Unless , that is, someone ASKS me to add the sails to the model I've just built for them .
Bonjour mon ami Alex félicitations de FRANCE pour ton travail 👍🇫🇷 Hello my friend Alex awesome model and very interesting work for the paintings good Technik Thanks for sharings congrats buddy good day of France 👍🇫🇷
Beautiful job it's almost like that thing had models within models with those lifeboats lol. I'm just now getting into doing ships I'm on my first one it's called a cuddyshark 1350 scale I have to come up with some ideas for the rigging because they don't really give you anchor points and I don't want to just glue string to the deck I've got some ideas from some other videos so far so good though my next one will be a lot better
Great work Alex, especially on the deck weathering. May i suggest leaving the ratlines till you've done the standing rigging to give you more room to manoeuvre, as well as working one mast at a time then doing ratlines for that particular mast, working bow to stern and inside to out, it worked a treat for me when I done my Revell 1:96 English Man O'war.
Another great build, Alex. I thank you for the brown paint tip when using gold....didn't know that! I really enjoy your commentary as it provides the aural to the visual.....depending I suppose on modes of learning and I need to hear as well as see it. Thanks again for sharing your skills with us.
Superb build Alex! I do love Frigates and I hope that one day someone will produce a kit of a British Leda Class as we have two of them here in the UK.
Found out days later of finishing this One that this is not the Acheron... Heller deceived me... This is actually a ship from my own country... D. Fernando e glória... Oh well!
You were probably mixing up the shrouds (the vertical ropes supporting the mast ) with the ratlines (the horizontal ropes used by the sailors to climb up to the yards). Since ropes strech, the ratlines sagged a bit, so the horizontal lines should have a droop in them and not be straight.
O Modelismo é apaixonante. E pessoas como o Alex, tornam-o ainda mais do que isso. Além deste aspecto vejo uma vez mais que nenhum tipo de construção lhe mete ''medo''... Muito bom, fantástico mesmo...!!!
This is so very inspiring. Thank you for showing every step and detail of the build. Helps me a lot as I am starting to enjoy building model sailing ships as well. I have the Lindberg Jolly Roger and will be doing it up as La Flore, the actual ship it is based on. It is quite similar to this one.
yes, after seeing this great step by step demonstration one should be able to tackle other similar projects as you mentioned. Nice build and finishing tips; and the special product reviews were quite helpful, and would be applicable to other types of model projects too.
Would have loved to see this Ship under full Sails. Turned out impressive anyway. I like the way the wooden Deck looks. Beautyful Model. Thanks for sharing online.
Try and find as much information on the model you are planning to rig . Even the kit instruction should have at least some of the main ones . If the model is like Alex's and supplies rigging cord in different colours , that's a real help . If the model is new'ish' and only supplies diagrammes , you should be able to 'break-up' the work by if necessary , writing or taping a small-piece with an arrow pointing to where it goes . If it is a much older kit , that's great because it will describe the colour and use of the rope required for a particular line . I've found it much simpler to concentrate on one at a time . Actually , it isn't too difficult to add the rigging just as the real ship was rigged . There are 2 different main types involved . The first is the 'standing' rigging and just 'stands' . It is used to make the masts rigid , holding the shape correctly . The other one is 'running' rigging and has a totally different use . These are the ones used by the crew to alter the sail angles and size to make use of the winds . Then , when the sails are not required , ropes are used to 'furl' or gather-up to the yard-arms , the pieces that are attached horizontally to the mast . Most plastic kits I've built , include the 'ratlines' . These are the triangular pieces that go from the sides to the yard-arms . They are usually not very realistic but are fine for now while you are starting . The upright part is fine being straight , because the real thing has to be . However the pieces going across are the 'steps' so quickly sag . Some kits provide more realistic ratlines that sag . Take it step by step . Look out for model ship magazines that may include a diagramme of what you are aiming for. Try and look out for some cheap but extremelly useful locking tweezers and haemostats ( fine-nosed locking pliers ) Being narrow , they are useful for carrying or pushing the end of a rope through the ones' you've already done . There are some beautiful small sailing ships available in kit form , and being smaller requires less rigging . Heller have made several that I can think of . Have a look . Clear some space , put some cool music on and enjoy . If you get stuck (🙄) put it to one side and leave it till you're ready again . All the best . Pete
@@AlexModeling At the beginning you keep mentioning the flash, did you ever try any of the metal car models they used to have at Toys 'R' Us? Some of the flash they had, you had to use pliers to take them off! That was back in 1970.
It's really a great pleasure to watch your videos ! It helps me a lot to see how you handle the rigging and the ropes. i try to build another model of this company in 1/200 scale. I have to do the rigging myself and it's very difficult ! which kind of glue do you use to fix the rigging and ropes ? i've tried different glues, but either they didn't fix or i have leftovers. Hope to see more videos like that ! you did a very respectful job ! thanks a lot !
@@AlexModeling thank you so much 🤗now i can go on . it's my first ship modell and watching your videos, i see how much mistakes i made. But for the next modell it will be better. the first is always for the mistakes 😄
Precioso, Alex...cuanto trabajo en el acabado...bueno si está a la venta me apunto...Gracias nuevamente por deleitarnos querido compañero con estás obras de arte, en manos de todo un maestro. Mi enhorabuena y un saludo como siempre desde Madrid.

Hi Alex. Not sure if anyone has mentioned but this vessel is not the Acheron. It's actually the 'Dom Fernando 2 e gloria' which is a Portuguese frigate and is currently docked in Almada near lisbon, portugal. Check it out on Wikipedia for more info. Happy modelling :)
Yes... Found that Exactly after making this One... If Heller was truthfull i would been a very proud owner of a Réplica of my own country amazing Ship!
That’s interesting. Acheron was the name of the French frigate in the film Master and Commander, Far Side of the World. I always assumed she was fictitious, I can’t find a reference to a real French Acheron.
Cool build. Just a few things I would have done differently. The sails would have done a bit more yellow and the pershade a brown. The cannons would have done bronze and I'm not real sure but might have separated the cannons from the mount/cart (for top deck only) but definitely would have removed the material between the wheels (don't know why they molded them that way). And I don't think I would have attempted to tie the rat lines from scratch either but good call on straightening them, because they also helped to study the masts and would be very tight. I might try one out after watching this video. Looks like it would be fun. Great video, thanks for sharing.
It is a lot of fun... On the cannons i also thought to remove the material beetwen tge wheels but believe me once insiste the deck you wont see it... The position of it wont let you see
Really cool, i usually stick to 1 48 planes and occasionally 35th tanks but have been wanting to try a ship. Might give it a go after watching this, the rigging is tedious though and kind of puts me off
Just to let you know , the area that you see him trimming and sanding is what we call at least when I was molding model kits and thousands of other plastic parts, a gate which is where plastic is injected into the cavity or part . There is a thing called flash which only would be seen around the parting line or edge of the parts as very paper thin plastic which usually indicates a molding adjustment or the mold is wearing out from a lot of use and the cavities need a new mold base or adjustment to the mold base half’s or a whole new mold .
Beautifull work, i am planing on building the REVELL Pirate ship which looks like the black pearl, and i am learning some of your technics for building plastic models. What kind of glue you use to fix the rope to plastic please? Thank you.
Just watched your video. Great work. What glue do you use on your rigging, plastic cement does not work as well as the product you were using. This particular model was out of stock at Hobbylinc
If its fully wrong Point me to the correct direction cause i folowed the instrucions... If you are saying That its wrong at least Point me were i can correct it...
Hi Alex. Years ago you did a review of the matchbox bf109 in 1/32. Did you ever build that kit? Would love to see a video, I've never seen one built up. Great build vid btw. I want to do a sailing ship someday. I started the Heller 1/200 cap horn years ago but found out it wasn't a real ship so lost interest in it. Still have it but won't build it.
Ogni volta che guardo questo video, vedo sempre la Perfezione 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Great stuff Alex, such an impressive model, it has a real presence 👍
Great job !!!!!!
Hi Alex. Not sure if anyone has mentioned but this vessel is not the Acheron.
It's actually the 'Dom Fernando 2 e gloria' which is a Portuguese frigate and is currently docked in Almada near lisbon, portugal.
Check it out on Wikipedia for more info.
Happy modelling :)
Yes... Found that Exactly after making this One... If Heller was truthfull i would been a very proud owner of a Réplica of my own country amazing Ship!
That’s interesting. Acheron was the name of the French frigate in the film Master and Commander, Far Side of the World. I always assumed she was fictitious, I can’t find a reference to a real French Acheron.
Trabalheira! Muito bom! À altura do original no filme.
pelo menos espero que aproximado!
Very Nice Alex, Like it a lot, Now I will have to buy a Sailing Ship and give it a go :)
Steven!!! How are you?? Great to see you!!
Cool build. Just a few things I would have done differently. The sails would have done a bit more yellow and the pershade a brown. The cannons would have done bronze and I'm not real sure but might have separated the cannons from the mount/cart (for top deck only) but definitely would have removed the material between the wheels (don't know why they molded them that way). And I don't think I would have attempted to tie the rat lines from scratch either but good call on straightening them, because they also helped to study the masts and would be very tight. I might try one out after watching this video. Looks like it would be fun.
Great video, thanks for sharing.
It is a lot of fun... On the cannons i also thought to remove the material beetwen tge wheels but believe me once insiste the deck you wont see it... The position of it wont let you see

Once you start it go with the flow... You Will get it done
Браво!
Just to let you know , the area that you see him trimming and sanding is what we call at least when I was molding model kits and thousands of other plastic parts, a gate which is where plastic is injected into the cavity or part . There is a thing called flash which only would be seen around the parting line or edge of the parts as very paper thin plastic which usually indicates a molding adjustment or the mold is wearing out from a lot of use and the cavities need a new mold base or adjustment to the mold base half’s or a whole new mold .
Wow you did a great job👍
The cannon deck is actually called the gun deck. I know that because I have the uss constitution model the 1st version.

Do you wash the plastic parts before painting??? Does the releasing oil from the casting interfere with the sticking of the paint???
Never had that problem. But i wipe tge surface with alchool before priming
@@AlexModeling Thanks ... had that particular problem on a Revell Cutty Sark!!
Just watched your video. Great work. What glue do you use on your rigging, plastic cement does not work as well as the product you were using. This particular model was out of stock at Hobbylinc
Super glue gel
yayy i jsut ordered this ship :D now it's really affordable 48 bucks...
Very nice, but I have to comment the rigging which is fully wrong. But the paintwork is beautiful.
If its fully wrong Point me to the correct direction cause i folowed the instrucions... If you are saying That its wrong at least Point me were i can correct it...
Where are the canons for the other side?
tea bags are good for staining sails try it
Hi! Amazing video. I wanted to know with what material you did the sails? Thanks!

Hi Alex. Years ago you did a review of the matchbox bf109 in 1/32. Did you ever build that kit? Would love to see a video, I've never seen one built up. Great build vid btw. I want to do a sailing ship someday. I started the Heller 1/200 cap horn years ago but found out it wasn't a real ship so lost interest in it. Still have it but won't build it.
I still have ir here to BE built with the Verlinden detail set complete for fuselage wheels and cockpit
Sure would like to build one of those, but don't think I could do it justice. Might have to try. Next stop......EBAY!!!!!!!
