Uss maine acr-1 1889

Ahoy
Here is another build I will be doing the Brooklyn inspired me into building another Spanish American War veteran. This is the Heinkle models kit of the USS MAINE ACR-1 Been building this one for a month now just never had time to post it here. A truly great kit the designer done one heck of a job I received this kit from Ecard models as download wit this download I can make as many as I want one great about it is that if I make a mistake I can always print another sheet, The kit goes together very well the scale of the kit is 1/200 it is a little bigger then 1/200 I took the kit down to Office Max scale is a little larger about 1/160 scale alomng with the Brooklyn she is larger in that scale I was hoping it would scale to 1/200 but bigger the better I say. Between the Maine and the Brooklyn I be busy for a longgggggggggggggggg while

Aft Superstructures And Casements

Ahoy PaperWrights
Todays posting Of The Day Is the construction Of the superstructures and Casement Guns. All Main superstructures that Are Ajasoned to the Hull Are Completed Hull Is Wrapped Up. Next I Cut out Some Paper Strips Using A metal rule to assure Straiten Of The Strips Inked In Same with A Sharpie. One Thing Certain About A White finished models your Always cleaning up the Nature Of the color White. Casement Shutters Were opened up for Battle during underway Ships colors The Casement Shutters where Secured for Water tight Integrity. These Old Pre Dreadnaughts Of the Late Nineteenth Century Were Very Beautiful Vessel Captured with Beautiful Lines and Curves Like A Beautiful young Maiden. Most Were all Designed with French Lines.


Next The Main Superstructure Framework Will be Added Along With the 10 Inch Barbets. The Designer Of this kit Has done A Marvelous Job In the Designing Of this Wonderful Vessel All Parts Fit Like A Glove No Fit Issues At All Builds Very Well Take Note This Kit Can Be Intimidating And It Will Challenge You In To Adding More to the kit Then What The Kit Gives You. I Am Adding As I Build the Kit I Have Enough Research Material To Try and Do This Kit justice. Stay Posted Have more Pictures Tomorrow Back To Ships Work.

Hello Boats,
Fine images. I like the two images showing the original Maine, and the later version.
The second one had a little more firepower.
