so i think that this can deffo be classed as a classic............had 'copyright 1955' moulded in to the hull


only my 3rd ship ever.....first time rigging anything..................build up can be followed in my bench thread

Sweet!

Makes for a nice interesting model.

Nicely done,

What did you use for the rigging? Stretched sprue?

Justin

i used the cotton that came with the kit but placed it over a cobbled up frame (the kits box with a big hole cut out ) so it was straight and then sprayed it with hair spray just to stiffen it up enough so i could cut it to the right length, cos it was too limp otherwise......i did about 4 or 5 bits before i realised it just wasnt going to look right unless i did something to it

That's a nice clean build. Just like Mr Revell wanted it. I do like this ship.
