USS Bonhomme Richard 1779 1:48 [COMPLETED BUILD]

Beautiful Build Oleg! Can you explain the difference between this kit and the Ancre Monograph dimensions? The monograph says it is 1/48 scale and the hull length is 860mm total with rigging is 1100mm while the ZHL site says it's model is 1/48 scale but the dimensions are 1168 hull length and 1468 total length with rigging. Is the ZHL model not 1/48?

Oops!
 
Just a small follow-up of this model.
It ended up in Detroit. had to build a big crate for it trying to eliminate even a smallest possibility of damage. I created some kind of suspended pillow to amortize the vibrations in the road and fixed the model to it preventing movement in all directions. The crate came out weighting around 100kg, so had to cut some holes to remove material, but still very heavy. Then - rented a truck, booked a hotel and after 1000km drive brought it perfectly undamaged.
