    HM Cutter Alert, 1777 in scale 1:36 by own reconstruction

    My interest in the Cutter Alert, 1777 began, as with many modelers who have built a model of the cutter, with the AotS volume "The Naval Cutter Alert, 1777" by Peter Goodwin. The book is now over 30 years old and, when preparing my project, I critically scrutinized the reconstruction presented...

    Dear model makers, I´m new here, but now it´s time to show my interpretation of the kit. I prefer "original" painted surfaces. Many thanks to all the other kit builder for the good ideas to find detail solutions. The kit is very well engieered. frumi

    I finally started with the Trident kit, so this will be the start of my build log. I started building the berth 4 days ago. Let me start this with a little "rant": As we all probably do, I really hate the laser char on the MDF. It smells bad and with the constantly black fingers you smear the...

    1777 - H. M. Cutter Alert - VanguardModels

    A few weeks ago, parallel to building the TridentModel "Alert", I started building the smaller version of VanguardModels in 1:64. At that time I had the kit for quite a while, according to Chris Watton I was the first to order it. I have that in writing ;) Anyway, the kit lay around for a...

    Evening I'm not very good with computers, this is the first log I've tried to do. Other craftsmen's logs explain and show much better than I can ever do. So I will just show you some pictures of where I'm up to with this very enjoyable model. Got to say a big thank you to all the other guys...

    Hms Alert by Maarten [COMPLETED BUILD]

    Yeah my kit came in after exactly 30 days shipping and customs. I had to pay €46,- for VAT and customs clearing but it is well worth it for a box full of goodies. I will build it next to my RC and already have some ideas of what I will do with it. It won't be a straight out of the box build but...

    Well, since I am participating so much from all of yours help in this great forum, I thought I’d share my bit back to it. I am no great photographer and have quite limited time to build, so this log won’t be a leading guide like others, but maybe my insights are still valuable for someone. I...

    HMS Alert 1777 1:48 by Poul

    This is going to be my build log for HMS Alert 1777… I hope I have no experience with model building. This will be my very first try so I'm not making this log to show off or to get flattery and likes. My only motivation to make this log is to get critique and advises from which can learn and...

    HMS Alert by Jolley Roger

    Here is the start of my buildlog for the Trident Model HMS Alert. It seems i'm one of the lucky ones that received an Alert before the DHgate shutdown threw a spanner in the works. The kit got delivered by Fedex, took 4 days from China to SA, then the local Fedex managed to bungle it up for...

    Hms Alert 1777- Trident Model 1:48 by Submarinerblue

    I’ve started a build log for Alert, although I must admit that my progress will depend on seeing the logs from more proficient modelers to help me out since the instructions are not if very much help so far. I have built Japanese models with no English at all but with detailed colored...
