    That's not a knock on Henry, either--his Victory in the middle of Ares ships is like having Patrick Stewart or Denzel Washington play pick-up ball filling in with a neighborhood community-theater troupe--and I think the prints he sent me are FDM's. :)

    When all is said and done, they are a joy to paint and as DB says even with my adding Ares sails they still stand out in a crowd.

    Thank you Tony. The two schooners more or less fill out my needs apart from a couple of gunboats.

    28 guns? That's no schooner, that's a small FRIGATE! :P


    A little more on Victory with an Intrepid also under work... primer is Vallejo 950 Black, decks are Vallejo 927 Dark Flesh, Victory hull is Vallejo 957 Dark Red and windowpanes are Citadel Caledor Sky. Is there a third deck of lights between the stern chasers and the lower gallery "balcony"? Port side is half stripped for another go at trying to paint without murdering the details.

    Build up color slow in washes? I usually thinned Vallejos 1 drop paint to 3-4 drops water Way Back When, but for these ships it's more like 1 to 1-2.

    ARS San Jose is slowly taking on her hull color... oh God I forgot how much I absolutely HATE painting things yellow. WWII USN trainers used to drive me NUTS... I'm using Vallejo 953 Flat Yellow and 862 Black Gray, looks like I gotta get a bottle of Gold for detailing the galleries.

That way there's less risk of damaging the model. Then it's just curing left. It's also nice to have timers built in telling me when it's finished by beeping.
    Jonas do you have to relevel the build plate if you take it off like that?

    No. You always have to remove the build plate to remove the print. I wouldn't hack away at the print while it's still attached upside down on the printer.

    We all are until we try it. I watched a lot of youtube videos to learn before I tried it out, hoping to not destroy it before I learned to use it.

    I watched several YouTube videos as well to learn. But your learning curve is a lot steeper with resin printing than mine was with FDM.

    I knocked out one of David Manley's Greek/Roman ship stands last night. He designed them for 1/2400 scale but I increased them to 1/1200. I still have to paint the eyes on the prows, plus the oar and ship wakes.

    I think that the resin printers are easier to understand what you need to do, but they are worse in the way of toxic resin, protective gloves, cleaning and curing. The only thing you have to do to calibrate it, which you should do if you switch resin, is to print a test print that you get from thingiverse or the like. There are test prints that will tell you if you have too long exposure or too short depending on how it prints the details. After calibrating the exposure time, you're ready to print. There are some great knowledge that the youtube community have found to work better than what the makers of the printers recommend. You shouldn't use quite as long extra exposure for the first layers as the makers recommend. It both burns out the screen quicker and makes it unnecessarily hard to remove the prints from the build plate. I have shortened it quite a lot and they still stick almost too hard.

    Not to be... nit picking, but it was me who posted that.

    The difference in length is about 5 mm.

    It clocks in at very close to the SoG Elizabeth-class.

    Not meaning to hijack here but did anyone else have the game Trireme from the 70s, came with 12 plastic Triremes in four colours and damage was charted and drywipe pens used to record.

    Thanks, Julian--when Keppel took her out in 1778 she was reported as having a red hull.

    Yes Chris I remember it being a great game! I played several times over at a friend's house in the mid 70's. It looks like it can still be acquired.

    Julián, you always make incredible work on the ships. As I see a lot of his work on Facebook I guess he’s not been as active here because 1:700 is a more popular scale now. It’s unfair to compare the two scales as there’s more details on the bigger scale.

    It’s a bit hard to show my own work when Julián just posted his fantastic work but I will defend myself by pointing out the scale difference.

    Impressive indeed. The fine detail raised a question in my mind which has echoed down the years ever since we started painting guns for the American army for AWI reguarding the trucks for the pieces. Now with the detail fine enough at 1000 to see these features. Did each nation have their trucks painted in national colours or just at the whim of the captain? I have only seen Black, Red, or natural oak on ships still around today such as Victory, or in museums or on the lawns in front of Naval buildings. Has anyone information on this?

    The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.

    Julián, they are 1:1000 resin printed. They are printed before I upgraded the printer for anti-aliasing too. Anti-aliasing makes the screen the uv-light is projected through have gray tones and not just black or white. This makes "steps" in the model smoother.

    Rob, I'm not sure. I searched the web for information on Spanish gun carriages and found that they were red at an earlier period and decided it was good enough for me. I have seen yellow, too.

    I know that British field carrages were greenish grey, American Blue, Spanish Yellow, and French Green, but not sure if the colours followed through to the Navy.

    It’s a bit hard to show my own work when Julián just posted his fantastic work but I will defend myself by pointing out the scale difference.

    Here is info on the USS Constitution truck carriages:

    The guns and carriages that are usually found on USS Constitution‘s spar and gun decks are replicas that were researched and manufactured for the 1927-1931 restoration. Over the intervening decades, the wooden carriages have been re-made and re-built many, many times. The 2015-2017 restoration was no exception and all of the gun carriages have had some re-building and refurbishment done to them. The replica 24-pound long guns are today mounted on laminated white oak carriages and wheels (known as “trucks”) that were last fully replaced in the 1992-1996 restoration. The iron carriage hardware is likely from the 1927 restoration, with some replacement pieces being substituted during the last 90 years.

    Nowhere near Julian's quality, but more work on Canada...




    Deck is Vallejo 927 Dark Flesh, base hull 856 Ochre Brown to represent "varnished wood," strakes and bulwarks 899 Dark Prussian Blue. Trying to find more pics of the model I'm basing it on (gallery supposedly at ModelShipWorld but can't find it) to better plan the gallery and beakhead work.
