alert

Hello, Welcome to my admittedly redundant build of HMS Alert. It's great to have a sophisticated kit to build as we go into the holiday season. A couple of years ago, all the cool kids were buying HMS Alert 1777 kits from Trident through Ships of Scale. So of course I joined in. Then I...

Hello everyone, my friends! After completing the la belle, I also completed the Alert. Thanks for the perfect design of the Trident Model. It is my second ship, and I hope to complete the next one more perfectly. Cheers Yuhong

Hi everybody. I have now begun my build of this great 1:48 scale POF kit by Trident Model, HMS Alert. l ordered the kit in the middle of January and it arrived safetly here in Spain 4 weeks later. (2 weeks delay due to the Chinese New Year holiday) with no problems at all, everything tightly...

I found some time to get started on my first kit: HM Cutter Alert by Vanguard. I am not new to model building; however, the wooden ships have always been a lofty an intimidating goal I never thought I would work my way up to until recently. Time to dive in headfirst. Let me just say this would...

Received this kit in the mail recently and was so impressed with the instruction manual I thought I would begin with it. The manual is a 55-page wire wound color illustrated booklet. The booklet measures 17" x 12" of heavyweight paper with excellent color illustrations. One of the most...

Hello guys, I just finished Essex. I couldn't share the finished version because I haven't photographed it yet. I will share as soon as possible. I have started my new project, HM Cutter Alert 1777. I used Vanguard's kit plan for cutting the bulkhead former and bulkheads. Since I chose a...

I have started my build of the Triden HMS Alert kit. The keel and jig are build. I lost some pictures. So here are current status. Ribs from 4 to 10 are glued, rest are dry fitted

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...

Hi all, My ship came in on August 26th. I immedately started work on it, and so far, here is what it looks like: I wish to express that the kit is exceptionally well engineered, I'm actually thinking about buying a second one. Thanks to all at Trident Model for doing an excellent job! Peter

Hi All, I received the kit last monday, after waiting for long time my turn (I added to the list on Oct, 15 2020), the shipment was very fast at least, it took just 1 week from China to italy. This is my first POF, so I am 100% sura I will need yuor help. I spent these weeks reading the KIT...

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...

The Shipyard HMS Alert, in scale 1/72, just arrived from Ages of Sail, kit # ZL:001. It looks like the only item that wasn't included was the glue. Everything else was, rigging lines, cannons, blocks, paint brushes and paints you name it...even directions! I have on hand some Gorilla glue and...

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...

您好，我在其中转发“快运行”警报“快运行”，现在将在制作过程中发布一些图片，希望对您有所帮助。我不懂英语，只能使用翻译软件与您交流，如果有什么问题，请见谅。 Hello, I forward the "Quick Run" alert "Quick Run" in it. Now I will post some pictures during the production process, I hope it will be helpful to you. I don't understand English, so I can only use translation...

I have received the kit a few days ago and I just finished cleaning the parts

Hello, I am writing from Germany. what can I say? After a rich week my kit arrived here well packed in an undamaged box. I use DeepL for translation, and without wanting to advertise, I think it works well. More information and a real start of construction will be available in the next days...

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...

In a bit of perfect timing, I received my Alert kit today, on my birthday no less! My initial impression is ”Damn, this is NICE!!” On reading the instructions, “Damn! These sorta suck!” I’ve had the AoS title for years, and that puppy is gonna get some use. We moved a couple of months ago, and...

IT HAS ARRIVED!!! My first post. Hopefully this works.
