ZHL. SAN FELIPE

ZHL Is merely a seller of the kit. It is manufactured by YuanQing - the same company who manufactures the Bluenose Plank on Frame model which you see on the SOS Bluenose Group Build.
I purchased on Ali express with ZJ Model Co.. I think that was were in went wrong. Total cost was $384 including tax and shipping ,I thought it was a great deal.
After opening and looking threw my ago san felipe parts, it did not come with photo etch parts. I tried asking for them but my request was not honored , so if anyone knows where I can get the lanterns for this kit along with any other aftermarket photo etch fittings,please let me know . thanks

I had to request from supplier to send me english instructions via email. Try contacting and request.

Heinrich, is there a possibility that YuanQing ships to George B the missing photo etched parts ?

Next time you want to buy a model ship from China, first check ZHL MODELS or the vendors directly , like CAF , who sells the models and products that he develops. Many of those developers are SOS members and they will help you. The link to CAF is in a thread at the start of this forum with all the model kits vendors links.

You can see in pictures and in the video from ZHL MODELS the San Felipe kits parts.

So did mine, they emailed me the english one and it was afraid to download onto my computer but did anyhow.
Hello George,
I have seen the S.F. 1/50 etched lanterns available via eBay, but piecing them back together that way can get very costly. I can hunt down the link again and direct message it if you need. I purchased my San Felipe via eBay and when it arrived mine had the Chinese CD as well, now the seller is no longer registered, joy. Thanks to this forum I now know that's not the way to buy one, but too late for me this time. I believe mine is an original, as it comes with the tapered yard arms and etched lanterns, but no gun port hinges(???). Any chance of emailing an English copy of these instructions to me, I purchased this for my father in-law as a gift, but I don't think his Chinese is up to scratch.

I can try to take screen shots and post them on here. I' m not that good with computer type stuff.
 
Thanks George, anything like that would be of great help. Sorry to be such a noob to all of this, but I'm not a ship builder (yet, but hope to be some day), I had brought this as a gift for my 80 year old Father in-law to help keep his mind active and engaged during lockdowns, that's also why I went with the 1/50 scale model. I've managed to scrounge a copy of the Panart plans, but as they are a little different from the ZHL model I'm trying to make the whole process as easy and enjoyable for him as possible. His great with his hands and attention to detail, but I fear Google translator may be a bit outside his scope, given he has already put 2 Android phones in the dam.... I'm worried the next one will get a Viking funeral...:)
Thanks to SOS I now know that I should have brought this model directly from ZHL Models and I would have avoided all these issues in the first place.
 
The english is on red print ,looks like it's going to be hard to read . maybe you can print these on your computer. If you can't read them let me know and I will try to enlarge them.this might be better.
