Maybe you can show us with one or some photos where exactly you have problems, so we can try to give hints to make it easier (or better)Working on the planking and finding it very difficult due to the thiknes of the planks .
The instructions are picture only and very little information. The quality of the parts seem very good some of the planking is very thick and hard to work with but I managed OK. The rigging is going to be a real challenge because there’s very little information.This Kit seems to be a bit of a mystery. Very little information that I've been able to find. Geowbre, what is your opinion of the overall quality?
Plans & Instructions?
Quality, completeness, etc. of materials provided?
Thanks!
(and GOOD LUCK with the build!!)

The model is based upon the reconstruction in France; hence, details of the rigging should be fairly easy to find.The instructions are picture only and very little information. The quality of the parts seem very good some of the planking is very thick and hard to work with but I managed OK. The rigging is going to be a real challenge because there’s very little information.

I think, that you will find all necessary information rigging, sails and belaying plan in the available monograph written by LemineurWhere would I start looking for rigging details?
Thank YouI did a search for "L'Hermione" and found a site for the ship's plans that included a rigging plan. There were also numerous photos of the ship in port. Given that the model is based on the contemporary replica ship, I'd start with both. I'd also look into the ship's website. They might help with their own observations.
