Trident Model - New kit design Cutter HMS ALERT 1777 - POF in scale 1:48 - by TRIDENT MODELS

So a lot of additional kits were sold and posted in the last weeks -
I hope to see some more building logs in our group build area of the ALERT.
If you started your work on the Alert, please do not hesitate also to start a building log showing your work - it would be great
 
To everyone building this model and looking to go beyond the instructions—whether by adding planking or fully rigging it with sails—I’ve spent a month researching the rigging and have compiled a detailed guide on how to make it.

I have also scaled the anatomy drawings to their true 1:48 size and formatted everything onto A0 sheets. Additionally, I’ve scaled the hull, deck details, boats, and other elements in the same way, so you can print them and have accurate real-time dimensions at hand.

I’m attaching sample images here, and you can follow the link to my post where you can download the full originals from Google Drive. Hopefully, this will save someone a lot of time!

@serikoff, The HMS Alert is very likely my next build... thanks, in part, to your wonderful build log and the plans above. Thanks a lot for your efforts. This is beyond useful!!
I'm really glad you enjoyed my build review. Yes, the model is very good, good luck with your next build. If you have any questions, please contact me.

Thanks Serikoff. Amazing and axtremely useful job for those who are about to face this project.
 
An alle, die dieses Modell bauen und über die Anleitung hinausgehen möchten – sei es durch das Hinzufügen von Planken oder das vollständige Ausrüsten mit Segeln – habe ich einen Monat lang die Takelage recherchiert und eine detaillierte Anleitung zur Herstellung zusammengestellt.

Ich habe die Anatomiezeichnungen auf den tatsächlichen Maßstab 1:48 skaliert und alles auf A0-Blätter formatiert. Auch Rumpf, Deckdetails, Boote und andere Elemente habe ich entsprechend skaliert, sodass Sie sie ausdrucken und die genauen Abmessungen in Echtzeit zur Hand haben.

Ich füge hier Beispielbilder bei. Über den Link in meinem Beitrag können Sie die Originaldateien von Google Drive herunterladen. Hoffentlich spart das jemandem viel Zeit!

Hallo Serikoff,
Durch deinen Baubericht wird es Jedem ermöglicht aus einem sehr guten Bausatz ein fantastisches Modell zu erstellen. Einfach klasse,wie Du in deinem Bericht jeden Bauschritt erklärst. Deine Recherche und Entscheidungen dazu erläuterst. Danke.
