HMS Enterprize 1774 1:96 von Modelship Dockyard

It is my understanding that models from kit maker Vanguard mention this as an option for model builder in the instructions. Sadly, Syren is the only kit manufacturer of which I am aware that addresses important design characteristic in some detail.
Hello,

Here is an example of how this kit points out the taper on the bow.
Please read the instructions first, they can be read as a PDF for everyone

The taper looks good fore and aft but it appears to cover things aft of the knee of the head. It really is confusing as drawn. You wrote "read the instructions first." Can you post those instructions? If you like I can post additional sketches that will help to understand better.

Hello and let's move on,

There's not much that can be done now.

13. Now I grind the laser carbon on the outside, this frame is already in the middle. This means I don't have to do a lot of angular sanding. There are lasered guide lines towards the bow and stern where you have to sand.
You can see how easy and quick sanding is in the short video.


14. Cut and grind the contact surfaces flush again.

15. Now briefly clean/sand.

16. Adjust the frame in the slipway. No problem, it fits straight away.
See video


Now that was a frame. Admiralty/frame model building is fun and really not very complicated. You just have to work very concentratedly.

... go on.
There isn't much to see or show. A few more frames were added. I removed the laser carbon from the inside of the fuselage and it looks much nicer.IMG_1321.JPG

I tried to take pictures of the outside of the hull through the slipway.

hello Mario,

leider habe ich keinen Eintrag von Deiner Enterprize mehr von Dir gesehen. Arbeitest Du noch daran und hast Du neue Bilder?
Ich denke daran, den Bausatz auch zu kaufen und würde gerne wissen, wie Du mit dem Bausatz und mit der Firma zufrieden bist.

unfortunately there were no more postings about your Enterprize since June. Are you still working on it and do you have new pictures?
I am thinking about ordering the same kit and would like to know how satisfied you are with the kit and the firm.

Franz
