I think the real thing has something like six, although I imagine we will have maybe 2 or 3 on the model. I've noticed that in the pictures of the finished job the launch isnt on the skid beams - maybe its optional to place it there? I might make a seperate diorama for it

Any update on this subject Mr T.

I would like to have a full complement of Victory boats

Update - The final specifics on the remaining boats are being ironed out and info will be posted up in the next few weeks as to exactly what is planned.

Hi Mr T

Any info yet.

If it is possible, I am considering ordering back issues that cover the construction of the launch...Got a really big kick out of building that!!

i hope we don't get the metal boats that artesania latina use in many of their models.

might be me but if you check the pics on the Victory page you can only see two (1 each side)hanging from stern and none on any of the deck pics

are those the jotika/caldercraft ones mike.

if so they are much, much better than artesania metal ones, but really only look good if painted, for those staining they are not ideal. i think i'll wait and see what's to come, but for anyone who is painting then you can add planking to parts of the resin, which once painted can look ok.

these are on cornwall boats i assume these are the ones you mean mike, obviously these are 1/64 scale

Hi Shipmates!

We know what is to come up to issue 106, thanks to Tomicks Official Build Diary, this will leave 14 issues that we don't know about. In these 14 issues we have to finish the dummy guns, fit the rest of the sails, finish the rest of the rigging, make another anchor & fitting the 4 anchors, the ship’s crew?, the flags, get the part to make the removable gun deck diorama and some other small part to finish.

That’s a lot to fit into 14 issues, the extra boats are starting to look unlikely to appear! there has been no word from admin about the other boats. So it looks like we only get the 1 boat, I hope I'm wrong! or I'll have to make some to finish the ship.

Darron

thanks for the info tomick
