ORCA scratch build

[flimzy]

I had never notice this till the other day, it’s long been known that Orca 2 had a curved back the the barrel guide and Orca 1 was open ended but if you look very closely Orca 1 has a sliding frame that explains the barrels jumping forward. It must be bungee operated.

Loving the bottle screws all the cables are now on. List of stuff to do is shrinking quick

So lovely...I have to talk to myself not to cry seeing that beautiful workmanship

Still thing to do, I plan on shooting some video on an over cast day when it’s finished.but it’s so hard not to shoot bits on the iPad in the morning just for fun now.

Absolutely gorgeous shots!

That stack of research/stills! wow! Someone eventually will ask for a pdf scan of them!

I predict that some day this will end up at Martha's Vineyard for one of the Jawsfests.

I’m not doing a super detailed or accurate bunk as I don’t have the reference and you barely see it.

Spinner need version 2. No green, screen old school shooting for the end product.

I went to Martha’s Vineyard years ago just for the day Richard Yuricich invited me to stay after we’d done a small model shoot. Loved it would go back in a heart beat.

I hope you go back in a heartbeat! I'm here in Ireland, and I'm so jealous of anyone that is out on a Sunday walkabout near the Thames, that gets to see this in action in the coming weeks! Jawsfest.... 2023!

Ho. Lee. Chit.

ha ha I just herd the audio in the back ground,

DROP THE MIKE Stop being so good..., no really, continue that fantastic build; it will be the bar everyone will try to attain next time

 

[flimzy]

I'm not sure at this scale how well the cushions will work in real fabric. so might have to model something and paint it to look real.

 

[Analyzer]

This is one of the most impressive builds I have seen

Everything looks perfect scale wise

 

[chibobber]

Tissue paper and PVA may work as a scale fabric.

Those chum buckets!
