Hi Ian and Jonny, Thank you for your kind comments I will receive my Victory back as soon as the stern Enhancement is manufactured (probably about 6 weeks) I well fit the new stern to her at the factory and take photos of her for all to see needless to say I am getting very excited. It was never my intention to build a plain wooden boat, with different wood and brass guns,as beautiful as they look, but the 1805 painted version is what I prefer, with as many enhancements as I could develope for everyone to share in.It may take 2/3 more years, but it is a journey not a destination. I hope that answers your questions guys Regards Mike MWG BUILD DIARIES: HMS VICTORY, SOVEREIGN OF THE SEAS, SAN FRANCISCO II, HMS HOOD, HMS ENDEAVOUR LONGBOAT, HMS VICTORY X-SECTION, 007 DB5, NISSAN GTR, CUTTY SARK, RB7, AKAGI, BARK HMS ENDEAVOUR, HUMMER H1, MITSUBISHI ZERO.

Hi Mike, sorry, I missed this comment of yours. I am sorry, but but I haven't been able to continue my build since new years eve. Major health problems kept me down and after recovering the job kept me extremely busy. No tiling yet. I still try to keep track in the forum how you all guys doing but my vic is still at the state of issue 48. Hopefully I can continue this summer when I will have a few days off.
Will keep you posted asap.
Cheers Timm

Hi Mike! In Japan, 3rd issue is provided. Since Japanese builders are hasty, they are already worry about 104 guns of the VICTORY. We wonder if these 104 guns are same as the one included in 1st issue. Some one says there are a lot of abbreviated guns in this kit.  However they are discussing on the website, we don't reach the result. Some people watch the MODELSPACE forum, but they can't find the answer. I guess you know the answer, please let me know it. Are there any abbreviated guns in this kit? If so, how many such guns are there? Best Regards, Yutaro DeAGOSTINI 1/250 the YAMATO, 1/250 the AKAGI.

Yutaro, after you have built and rigged the 10 guns, you'll be happy that the rest are just dummy gun barrels!
