Foirage total ! Une catastrophe. La peinture de la carling était catastrophique : pas les bonnes couleurs, pas le bon ton, bavures de partout etc. Finalement j'opte pour un retour à zéro intégral et donc passage au Decap'four

Villiers de Vos
Another master piece starting to take shape.

Jörg Schäfer
Let's hope so. The conditions are particularly good this time. Not only do I have a Pontos set for this model, I also have an MK 1 set on top. So let's see what I can conjure up from it

David Taylor
Back in.

Jörg Schäfer
Top. 😃

Jan Peters
Jetzt gehts los!
Another two year build Jörg?
Following 👀

Jörg Schäfer
I think so Jan. 😅
Nice that you be there.

Sven Schönyan
Zur Entspannung jetzt was bodenständigeres?

Ich bin auf jeden Fall dabei!

Jörg Schäfer
Schön Sven.
Ja, der Ausflug ins Star Wars Universum war nett, aber ich baue doch am liebsten Schiffchen. 😉
Sehen wir uns auf der EME?

Sven Schönyan
Leider nicht. An dem Wochenende kann ich nicht und ich muss dieses Jahr etwas Urlaub sparen. Ich habe für Hamburg im September gebucht.

Jörg Schäfer
Sehr Schade.
Und Hamburg im September kann ich leider nicht.

Hans-Jürgen Haag
Schön zu sehen, das japanisch Bügeleisen ist im Bau. Bin schon gespannt auf das Ergebnis!😳

Tini Hendriks
Ganz neu für mich, schiffe. Gespannt wo's hingeht. Hals & Beinbruch 💪🏼

Jörg Schäfer
Fein, das freut mich euch dabei zu haben.
Glaubt mir, bin auch gespannt wo ich lande. 😄😉

Michael Kohl
Nicht ohne mich! 🙂

Jörg Schäfer
Klasse. 👍😀

Jörg Schäfer
It's nice that you're there, Jennifer. 😀

Dietmar Bogatzki
Taking a seat 🙂

Jörg Schäfer
I forgot that you came on board, Dietmar. Nice to have you there. 😀

Dietmar Bogatzki
want to see how you build this iconic ship 🙂

Jörg Schäfer
Very nice. 👍

Michael Kohl
Nice workbench. And how on earth do you keep your cutting mat that clean?
Das Modell? Ja das Modell wird halt wieder super. Eh klar! 😉

Jörg Schäfer
Thanks Michael.
That's easy. Before I started building the Mikasa, I rotated it 180 degrees. If you look at the picture with the bow view, you will notice the paint and glue residue in the back corner. 😁

Dietmar Bogatzki
Fantastic seein how you build a nother Masterpiece, Jörg 👍

Jörg Schäfer
And my best thanks again, Dietmar. 😃

Guy Rump
Looking great, following. 👍

Jörg Schäfer
Thank you, and nice to have you on board.

Dietmar Bogatzki
Fantastisch was du mit dem Rumpf gezaubert hast, Jörg und das in der kurzen Zeit 👍

Tini Hendriks
Looking great! Steady hand! I would think hullred but I had to look up the word "antifouling" 🤔🦐🦞🐙🦑

Jörg Schäfer
Thank you both.
It's unbelievable what was mixed into the antifouling paint back then, Tini. 😲

Jan Peters
Excellent progress, looking forward to seeing more

Jörg Schäfer
Thank you very much, Jan. I'll try to hurry....😅

Sy Bar
Great work so far 🍿

Slight off topic I'm interested in the storage you have behind it. Particularly the one between the brush storage and the three tall draws. My question is de you convert another storage to give the racks for your tray things and if so how/what did you convert? I have the same storage system but have not found anything like that rack and it's a great idea I'd like to use.
Cheers and keep the good work going as it's going to be a great model. 👍

Jörg Schäfer
Hello Sy Bar.
Thank you.
Do you mean this rack?!

hobbyzone.pl/en/modu..niversal-drawer.html

It is very modular and can be adapted to the respective use. I use them to store the organizer drawers for my etched parts.

Sy Bar
Cheers #Jörg keep up good work

Joerg R.
Alter! Hier sieht man erst, welch gigantische Arbeit du jetzt schon wieder investiert hast. Namensvetter, das wird wieder was richtig feines von dir, da bin ich mir zu 100% sicher.
Bin auf jeden Fall wieder dabei und staune und staune.
gruss
Jörg

Jörg Schäfer
Das freut mich, Jörg.
Schön dich an Bord begrüßen zu dürfen. 😄

NLAWScametovisit
Showed up because I heard there was a grinding orgy of chiseling, but now i'm staying for this incredible build!

Jörg Schäfer
😂 Thank you very much, nice to have you there.

Hans-Jürgen Haag
Es wächst und gedeiht! Schön mit anzusehen. Der dunkle Anstrich sieht wirklich super aus, gefällt mir ! Weiter so Jörg 👍👍👍

CaptGPF
Jörg - you always have the most interesting, detailed and fascinating builds! I love how you convey your thought process as you build your masterpieces! Definitely watching to see this new masterpiece!

Jörg Schäfer
Danke Hans-Jürgen. 😉
I'm very pleased, CaptGPF, that you like my little construction reports so much. 😁

Dietmar Bogatzki
Awesome weathering Jörg 👍

Jörg Schäfer
Many thanks, Dietmar. 😊

Rui S
Looking Great as always 👍

NLAWScametovisit
This weathering is outstanding! Also, you're giving me severe desk envy for your workshop setup!

Jörg Schäfer
Many thanks to you both.
Yes my workbench turned out really cool, NLAWScametovisit.

Matti Thomaes
Sorry for your los, Jörg, but it's good to see you're getting back to our wonderfull hobby.

Jörg Schäfer
Many many thanks, Matti.

Michael Kohl
Rough seas you had to steer through lately. My condolences. Hope future waters will be much calmer and this build helps navigate them Looking for more progress here. 🙂

Jörg Schäfer
Thank you for the kind words Michael.
Yes, I hope that things are going well again now.

Hans-Jürgen Haag
Kommt gut raus dein Bügeleisen 😎 sehr gut gemacht 👍👍👍

Jörg Schäfer
Schön daß es dir gefällt, Hans-Jürgen. 👍

gorby
Looks like you are doing amazing work! Definitely following this build. 🙂

Jörg Schäfer
Thank you very much, Gorby.
Nice to welcome you on board.

Ingmar Stöhr
Wow, how did I miss out on this awesome project? Very involved detailing going on! I love the paint finish so far!

Jörg Schäfer
Many thanks Ingmar. 😊
We'll see how it goes.

Sven Schönyan
I´ll take a seat in the front row!

Ingmar Stöhr
You're welcome! I hope you brought enough beer and chips as this might take a while 😉
An please make sure you keep a safe distance of at least 1.5m.

Mike Kryza
Schau ich mir doch gerne an.

Acki
Bin auch gerne dabei, aber den Mindestabstand kannst Du vergessen. Da erkenne ich nichts mehr. 👍

Ingmar Stöhr
Willkommen an Bord!

Ingmar Stöhr
Progress on turret No.2

Ingmar Stöhr
Slow progress in the last days because of beautiful weather. Finally managed to finish No.2 turret

Ingmar Stöhr
A few days off and bad weather lead to some progress on this project. Pontos set misses some details and the resin parts are generally excellent. A few show more flash and other minor defects. But still a vast improvement over the kit parts.

Lochsa River
nice build...sitting in

Ingmar Stöhr
welcome on board!

Joerg R.
Hey Ingmar baut ein neues Schiffschebootsche, klasse 👍👍

Ingmar Stöhr
I managed to complete all the Armored Box Launchers and the Harpoon Launchers. I even put all my courage together and started the opened launcher from the Infini set. 83 PE parts, 5 turned brass parts, some plastic sheet an 6 hours was all it took to build an amazing tiny detail for New Jersey.
@Joerg: Herzlich Willkommen

Sven Schönyan
Very nice progress and good work on the launchers and funnel!

Łukasz Gliński
That Kaman looks like 1/144 or my 1/72 builds, respect! 👍

Ingmar Stöhr
Thanks a lot!

Treehugger
The smokestack work in photo 10 looks really nice I think. Fun to see others drilling out the holes in pipes and stuff. 🙂

Ingmar Stöhr
How can you not drill out all the pipes. That would be really insane 😉

Christian Bruer
I call it a promising start, excellent work so far Ingmar 👍

Ingmar Stöhr
Thank you Christian! I'm very glad to have you on board!

Ingmar Stöhr
Today it was time to finish the four Phalanx CIWS. The detail on the Pontos parts is absolutely breathtaking. A was with black oil and afterwards a careful dry brush with light grey and white is all that was needed.

Thomas Bischoff
Amazing level of details 👍

David Taylor
Im in.

Fly By Jan
wooooooooooowwww, this looks very exciting! I am following!

Ingmar Stöhr
Thank you mates!

Ingmar Stöhr
Finished the weapons platform for the aft. CIWS.

Ingmar Stöhr
Today I managed to complete all the 5 inch guns. The detail on the Pontos parts is superb! Only thing I had to change where the gun mantlets (not sure if that is what it's called for naval guns), as the Pontos parts are way to small.

Sven Schönyan
Great result!

Ingmar Stöhr
Finally some progress to show. I used the old Tamiya kit to replicate the SH-3 Sea King seen on board New Jersey in 1983. I added struts to the wheel sponsons an the fin on the tail boom. The MAD probe on the starboard sponson was made from styrene rod. The tail rotor is made from thin styrene strips. The main rotor came from my own Elegoo Mars SLA printer. The Tamiya rotors look more like bricks...
Most of the markings are hand painted to match the exact Sea King shown in a series of pictures from 1983.

Ingmar Stöhr
Upper superstructure with main mast and radars assembled, painted and weathered.

Sven Schönyan
Excellent paintwork! I like your highlighting!

Spanjaard
amazing job!!! the radar is fantastic. and i really like the SH-2 and Sea King

Ingmar Stöhr
Thank you Sven and Spanjaard.

Thomas Rieck
Moin Ingmar. Wie bekommst du auf dem letzten Bild dieses "verwaschene" Grau hin? Lackieren und dann? LG Thomas

Slavo Hazucha
Just found this project - fascinating work, so much attention to detail and an absolutely clean results - I really like your painting & weathering weathering too, you strike a great balance between macro & micro and a great scale impression result! 👍

- happy to jump on board mid-project 🙂

Ingmar Stöhr
Thank you Slavo! The project has been on hold for quiet a while now. But hopefully I will get back to it very soon.

Norbert Steffens
What I've seen looks fantastic. I predict that your USS New Jersey is going to be a excelent model

Ingmar Stöhr
Thank you Norbert! Now I have to live up to those expectations 🙂

Konrad -
Very nice Ingmar. Count me in here as well.

Lenny Hoffmann
Wahnsinn, weiter so

Stefan Fraundorfer
Das sieht alles unglaublich genial aus Ingmar. Super Bemalung und Alterung. Nur eine Kleinigkeit ist mir aufgefallen. Die untere Stiege im Bild 36 ist verkehrt angeklebt. Oder hat das einen bestimmten Grund?

Michael Osadciw
Wow. What a lot of detail. How do you like the 3D printer you have? I've been thinking of getting one for creating parts and hopefully full 1/35 scale figs once I get some more Blender sculpting knowledge under my belt.

Ingmar Stöhr
Thank you everyone!
@Stefan: Die Treppe hat es auf dem Fotor "nur" nach hinten umgebogen. Da ist schon alles richtig 😉
@Michael: I'm very happy with my Elegoo Mars. For around 250EUR it delivers very nice detail! I did a lot of modeling and sculpting in Blender the last months. Have a look at those two projects:
St. Mary's Church, Falklands April 1982 | Album by stugiii (1:350)
Lighthouse on Cliff 1/350 scale (3D printed) | Album by stugiii

Ingmar Stöhr
Today I was able to complete the main armament. Turret No3 also needed some modifications to resemble the prototype in the 1984 time frame.

Ed Batres
I'm curious, why are there handrails on the turrets? When would the sailors use them? How do they reach them? I'm primarily an aircraft builder, but appreciate great work. Thanks. Great attention to detail. Pleasure to see the work you do.

Ingmar Stöhr
Hi Ed, I'm not entirely sure, but most likely they would be used to secure a sailor with a rope when doing maintenance or some paint work. You find similar rails around the whole bridge, e.g. for cleaning windows or repairing something from the outside

navycod
This is awesome, serious approach!

Jörg Schäfer
An excellent job. I'll stay on board.

Michael Kohl
That's some neat masking job.

Matti Thomaes
Permission to come on board? I'm planning to do the Revell Platinum version for my next large build, this is very inspirational...

Michael Schubert
Wow..just wow!!

Ben M
What a beauty!
