7th Voyage of Sinbad 1958

To complete the series on Ray Harryhausen films here is a movie which as far as model ships go, features shots entirely lifted from previous productions, mostly unrelated pirate movies which (except for the first shot) do not match the arabic lateen sails of the full size sets or the subject matter.

The other miniatures are of a cave and tunnel which is used as a background for the stop motion animated creatures and the live action.

Around the World in 80 Days 1956

This title was suggested by a reader Robert, it's a movie that although I have known of it, I had never actually seen.

A couple of miniature ship scenes appear along with a miniature balloon shot over famous landmarks and a miniature trestle bridge collapse.

According to IMDB the miniature ship shots were supervised by Fox's Fred Sersen in the Fox tank. There are two ships depicted and it looks like the same model with some modifications and an altered paint job, was used for the second version.

So Proudly We Hail 1943

Some impressive miniature work by the great Gordon Jennings in this film made during and concerning nurses in the second World War. Of particular note is the night time sequence of the island evacuation using small boats while under fire, all in miniature both outright shots and as process rear projected backgrounds to the live action actors.
