Hi
I kinda have lost my mojo for 1/20 plastic F1 Kits for the time being and have always wanted to build a Big Huge wooden ship like HMS Victory, HMS Endeavour, Cutty Sark etc, but it would be insane to start at that level so I reckon I'll give the artesania Latina HMS Endevour longboat a try first.
obligatory box shot
contents... Hmm somethings missing?
Yep definitely missing something, looks like there is no planking or masts, DOH!
so after some back and forth emailing i got this package sent to me with the replacement parts.
Keen to start working on the kit, with the 1st ashes test on the telly, the keel, frames and some of the decking assembled.
A week later the hull needs to be prepped before the planking goes on
the instructions aren't 100% clear but I have to round off sections of the bow and stern
the progress is slow, probably because I am not using a rough enough file.
