⚓Model ship building guide n° 6 || How to paint clean crisp lines on a model ship hull using a simple painter's trick.

Join me as I embark on the journey of building a scale model of the Fram, a legendary ship of exploration. The Fram, constructed in 1892, was the first ship specially built in Norway for polar research. Designed by Colin Archer, it is renowned for its incredible resilience to ice pressure and its pivotal role in groundbreaking Arctic and Antarctic expeditions led by Fridtjof Nansen, Otto Sverdrup, and Roald Amundsen.

In this series, I’ll take you through every step of the building process, from unboxing the kit to the final finishing touches. Unlike my San Felipe model, where I went for a dark, weathered, and fearsome look, I aim to present the Fram as shiny and pristine—right out of the factory, ready for its first voyage. Along the way, I’ll share insights into this historic vessel, discuss modeling techniques, and showcase the artistry of recreating a ship that changed the course of exploration history. Perfect for model shipbuilders, history enthusiasts, and fans of craftsmanship!
