Today I paid my friend Nick a small visit with the camera to get some new shots of his scratch card build of Musashi in scale ….1:100 (around 1/8”) and in that scale the model is 2.63 meters long (8.6 ft)! Musashi was the second and final Yamato class battleship and named after Musashi province. Yamato, Musashi was a member of the largest and most heavily-armed and armored class of battleships ever constructed. She was sunk after intense air attacks on October 24, 1944 during the Battle of the Sibuyan Sea
Nick has been building his Musashi for over 2 years now, and seems that it will take another year. But you can see that things do progress. Comparing to last year visit, I see now completed turrets; he is now working on the aft planes catapults.

We have just added over 20 different sets of brass and aluminium barrels for scale 1:200 and 1:100.
Barrels are turned for specific models for example: HMS Prince of Wales (26 barrels), HMS Hood (22 barrels), Admiral Graf Spee (20 barrels), Bismarck (36 barrels), Yamato (39 barrels), USS Iowa (29 barrels) ... and more!
Majority are for scale 1:200, as standard scale for typical card sets!
On top of it we have Bofors and Flak barrels packaged by 4 and 10 pieces. Those are for scales 1:100
So scroll down the list, perhaps you will find something for you current or next model!

Flagship Santa Maria was a larger round-hull ship also called nao. Christopher Columbus himself piloted Santa Maria in 1492. She was a merchant ship between 200-600 tons with length of 75 feet and width 25 feet.
Now ShipYard is releasing their 3rd laser cut set with Santa Maria in scale 1:72. The box includes abolutely all you need to build that card model.
Almost at the same time we can see that the publisher also releases standard card model of American brig Lexington from 1776!
Looking at the descriptions, seems it should be fairly stright forward one....

BoatModelling.com has now on offer sets of masts for ShipYard’s Santa Leocadia 1777. Of course they can also be used for scratch build from the plans.
Masts are beautifully turned from bright birch wood then can be easily stained or oiled depending on used technique.
The set consist of all needed masts, spars and yards.
As you can see on some pictures masts, where needed have even square heels!
No sanding needed, just to put them together and onto your model.
