Is it correct that modelspace are no longer doing this build.

I was just wondering if it's still possible to re-order individual stages if, like me, one messes up. Or parts are broken/missing?

If you have a subscription you should be ok asking for replacements. Although you might have to await stock

Thanks for your kind words Trev and Alan. I have done se work on the fittings,I managed to break the steps while taking apart the original model so I had a go at making my own from walnut I also made the bits from the same material. nightwisher attached the following image(s): Man he took his time in the sun Had a dream to understand A single grain of sand He gave birth to poetry But one day will cease to be Greet the last light of the library...We were here!

Thank you Alan. Have been working on the 10 guns pretty much as per the instructions except I added small pieces of 2x2 wood to fit under the carriages to make them look more like the real ones as I thought the wire axles looked a bit skinny. I also sanded the rigging blocks to make them a bit smaller File Attachment(s): nightwisher attached the following image(s): Man he took his time in the sun Had a dream to understand A single grain of sand He gave birth to poetry But one day will cease to be Greet the last light of the library...We were here!

Nice clean work on the cannons.
I like the idea of a wood strip to hide the brass axles.
Too late for me to do this on my model though.

Thank you do much for the kind words. I really did not like the kit version of the cabin walls so have been messing about with bits of walnut to to try and come up with something closer to the real thing. nightwisher attached the following image(s): Man he took his time in the sun Had a dream to understand A single grain of sand He gave birth to poetry But one day will cease to be Greet the last light of the library...We were here!

Hi everyone, sorry I haven't posted for a while been busy at work and doing up my garden. Anyway I have managed to finish the scratch built cabins, I quite enjoyed doing this though very time consuming. The poop deck is finally finished and I have trimmed the gun deck opening. nightwisher attached the following image(s): Man he took his time in the sun Had a dream to understand A single grain of sand He gave birth to poetry But one day will cease to be Greet the last light of the library...We were here!
