Photo Etched Parts
Posted by Anonymous on Thursday, March 24, 2005 7:31 AM
I have just started on the Minicraft Titanic and already I see that in order to do a good job I am going to have to use some photo etched parts.

So.....Because I have no experience using them I need advise from you expert modelers on these endeavors.

Easy,First stock up on pain killers,a couple of bottles of your favorite Vodka or whisky,those relaxing mood music tapes and finally a pair of those magnifying lenses.But seriously,you can find a nice set for the Titanic at Gold Medal Models.They do a couple of sets including the passengers with band.Another has all the benches and assorted bits.If taken slowly and steadily you can build a superb model.I used the sets for my Lusitania and they really bring it to life.

Flagship models "Rusty White" shipmodeler@sbcglobal.net, has a good series of how to's involving shipmodeling. I purchased his "making realistic water" and working with photo-etched parts cd. Good stuff for under $10 a lesson. His info on tools and techniques helped me out alot.
