Recommended Posts

Great to be here my name is Rich and I live in Burbank IL . I have built a few models in the past mostly plastic kits , a friend gifted me this and hope to be able to build it , a pretty old model and I'm sure everything is not there . But maybe some of you folks could steer me in the right direction when I get stuck Rich .

Hello Rich

Welcome to the madhouse, (At least my corner of it).

 

What are the odds!!!!!!!!!!:stunned: I have that same kit. While I have my doubts that it has much resemblance to the actual Cabot, no one can really tell what she looked like, it should be able to make up into a pretty nice model of a Continental Brigantine.

 

If I could be so bold I would suggest looking into Chuck's practicum on building the Sultana. They are very similar models and this kit could benifit from the same modifications.

 

Chuck Passaro's practicum

 

Looking forward to seeing how it goes.
