Hello. There is something new. In the middle of the job I decided to paint it. The result is good but not on the windows. Here is the picture of the same detail from my first Ambrose. You can see that there is some progress.

Here is the hull. It's almost finished. It still needs some work but for now is OK.

To miguelj and others that think that my first version of Ambrose was not so bad here are some macro pictures of it. You have to click and see the bigger version to see. I don't know if I'm able to do any better in my second version but I will try.

I knew that I use wrong words for everything. I'm not a seaman so I don't know the right name for all things on the ship (even in polish). From other hand there is only 13 days left in the competition and writing descriptions for everything takes time. So I will make more pictures and put them...

miguelj: I didn't like the first version because all the parts were twisted some way. When I find some time and there will be good light I will make some macro shots of it. Ambrose is a small model but quite difficult because of very small parts. I will try to do more pictures to show how...

Hello. Every day I try to build something but there is no time left for writing the report. Here are boards. At the beginning and at the end (almost) of preparing them. I made the doors that are on each board. I cut them out and glue back so there is a 3D look. Unfortunately I was...

Thank you for the interest of my build report. As you see at the beginning I'm building the ship second time so I wanted to make it in a more challenging way. Yes. I had nothing else only my modeling knife (Olfa AK-3). I checked if the back side will not cut the paper and it was OK. I...

Next part of the story. I was building the deck. This is not so easy because I wanted to make it more realistic. First I had to cut out the outer border (this part that is not made from wood). This was easy but to glue the very narrow border to the hull was quite complicated so I will show...

Yes now I know it but it was an experiment.

I made some modification to the original Ambrose model which I want to explain here. The problem with all paper models are the black lines than mark the places to cut or fold the paper. I decided that I will print the lines on the back of the paper. I had to modify the original PDF's. I don't...

Hello! This is my build report for free model competition #2. This is my first build report on this forum so I will present myself. I live in Warsaw in Poland. I stared building paper models last December after many many years (I was impressed with the new possibilities, new tools, models...
