Hello all.
Let me start by saying I am as thick as two shorts when it comes to scale.
I have acquired from ebay among other things a part built cutaway model which I've identified as a Del Prado magazine build of HMS Bounty. It's 1:46 scale. There's the same cutaway ship by Occre in 1:45 scale and I can download the build instructions with photos and plans from their website. How much 'out' am I going to be in using the plans to scratch build the bits I'm missing? As I say I'm useless as working out scale and size ratios.
