Don't know which is correct, but Wikipedia list the 1774, 28 gun frigate is "Enterprise". Also according to Wikipedia, in 1775 there was a "Enterprize" that was a 10 gun tender. Just thought that might help spur some research to make sure the correct name is used when the kit is made available.

Hope that helps!

Hallo Jeff,

it is definitely the british HMS Enterprise, a 28-gun frigate and name ship of her class of twenty-seven ships.



There are several contemporary drawings existing of the ship, but also of other sisterships of the same class

For research you have to know, that either ENTERPRIZE with "Z" or ENTERPRISE with "S" is correct - so alternative spelling.
The same with the Syren of the same class - either SYREN or also SIREN
or the SURPRIZE or also SURPRISE

Thanks. I figured by the provided pictures it was the 28 gun ship. I just thought if the correct spelling is with the S they may want to make sure it makes it into their documentation for anyone wanting to do additional research.

I was just trying to be helpful.

There is also a pear wood version in progress at the same time

 

[Uwek]

The carvings are great - I love this model already

 

[Corsair]

I think I see a pearwood 1/48 scale version in my future as my first POF build.
This looks beautiful !

Great model.
One question, where can I get such a huge phone?

Good question - because the model details are looking like a much bigger scale

 

[Loracs]

I'm in for the boxwood 1:96 version... it is just exquisite. Ready has Christmas gift in the US? Please say yes. ;_)

 

[Bryian]

Its a good scale model for people with limited space.

 

[Loracs]

exactly... and with intricate details. It would make a nice showcase.

 

[Loracs]

one small question: will you have the plan for the mats and rigging? even if the material is not included in the kit release? I'm just curious mostly, not a deal braker... just convenience.
