My one and only model in 1/700 scale – Austro-Hungarian ironclad Ferdinand Max. She was the flagship of Wilhelm von Tegetthoff fleet at the famous battle of Lissa.
The model was build as a souvenir.
Personal blog about scale modeling. Aviation 1/72, Navy 1/350, Armor and Diorama in 1/72.

A step aside – a kind of model I’ve never build before – a sailing ship. I just wonder – how does it feels to build something from wood? So, this is a kind of another experiment for me.
I decided to go into small scale for wooden shipbuilding – 1/150. I think it is a smallest scale for building something acceptable. My aim for this build is to try different tips&tricks and have fun. Nothing more. Hope that the model will be at least of Mini Mamolli kits level.
Why Nina? She is small, rather simple and there are a lot of models of her that I can take as a guidance.
I took scaled down Shipyard’s 1/96 card model as a base.
