That's a Bermuda schooner rig. I can't tell you exactly when it came into use, but it's been around a long time. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bermuda_rig#History.

Welcome aboard! Chile is beautiful country -- I wouldn't mind visiting some day.

Absolutely fabulous! What a credit to the card modeler's art! PS: Do you follow the HMV page at Facebook? If not, I'd like to share a link to your build log there -- Benjamin (the owner) would certainly appreciate it.

I've no personal experience with them, but I'd be super hesitant to order anything from AliExpress -- they're a known platform for pirated merchandise, and some Chinese sellers have no qualms about using photos that don't depict the actual merchandise being sold.

Congratulations, and nicely done!

There's no comparison, as you may already know. Chris designed both kits, but the Caldercraft kit dates to very early in his career arc. The Caldercraft kit is still a good product, but Chris' more recent releases for Vanguard Models are ahead in every respect: better designs, better materials, better instructions.

Hawker Hurricane Mk. I by ccoyle - Halinski - 1/33 - CARD
ccoyle replied to ccoyle's topic in Non-ship/categorised builds
Gonna have to sideline this build for the weekend, but here's a quick update. The patch has been made (it's ugly), the aft fuselage completed, and the vertical stabilizer added. I'm getting a little itchy to get back to Phoenix. 😬 -
Head room, I feel certain. Analogous to a companionway on later designs.

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
