Has anyone begun Artesania Latina's HMS Victory cut-away atanomy model yet ?
Hopefully we'll some build logs starting up soon.
It looks like a fascinating kit, but it's much more than I'd care to attempt at this time.
Their promotional video of the completed kit makes it look like many of the blocks are oversized. And the sails could stand replacing with cloth that has bolt ropes sewn along the edges rather than sloppy-looking serger edging.
Their web site has a series of video instructions showing the build. I'm picking up some good detail tips and ideas that I'm going to incorporate into my USS Constitution cross-section model that I just started, including cutaway sections to make some of the detail easier to see.
It's nice to see a kit with chain pumps like the USS Constitution had when it was built.
I look forward to following shipmate's progress on their builds of this kit.
