Buoy Wonder

Hello and my apologies for the extremely late reply. I was unfortunately involved in an accident at work that has left me thumbless on my left hand. So my modeling career has been on hold since December of last year. But I have just pulled out my current bounty build to continue!!!

The dandy model I have does have a parts list I believe. I will check again and if you still would like it I can figure a way to get it to you. I don't have a scanner but maybe pics might work. It's been awhile since you asked but let me know.

Greetings Mspringer!!!

That would be fantastic!!! It was given to me with the assumption it was complete, but I'm guessing whoever originally had this model started and got as far as the hull and planking, then stopped for whatever reason. The planking for the second layer seems to be sparse but it seems the first layer wood is still accounted for. Makes me think....maybe an oops?

I agree with you. Too bad cause I would have liked to build her. I have already started bashing my bounty build with some of her treasures.

Funny there is so little on the internet regarding Dikar. It seems like an old kit. I can't even tell if they were reputable or not. The quality seems pretty good.

Thanks mtaylor,

Funny cause I have actually been kind of obsessive about it today.  Should of been working on my "Bounty" but this ones got me intrigued!  I guess because she's rare.  The fittings and details are so uhh... detailed and yes the wood is somewhat dry but I think I can work it.  I will hold out because I don't want to scrap her as of yet.  

Hello!!!

A kit just came into my possession out of someones dusty attic and thought maybe a possibility once I'm finished my Bounty build as she's a nice looking ship.

After looking at everything I realize that there seems to be some important things missing.  I found very little about Dinkar online other than this ship is a POF build.  And old!!  So I seem to be missing the frames and there is no instructions so I am unsure as to what else isn't here.  

So I humbly come to you good people for any information on this kit.  The plans show nothing of the hull and its guts.  I am only about halfway through my first build ever, but I'm not afraid to scratch build if I had something to go from.  

What do you think?  Is she salvageable or just parts? 

Fantastic!!! Nice job!! How did you find the build?? The reason I ask is I have an opportunity to get the kit at a good price. I'm wondering if this would be a good fit for my second build. I'm still new but ready to move up from a solid hull build.
