To use 1/36 measurements, calculate measurement X (1/36) x 36/30.

  13. Enterprize is overI worked for 4 and a half years for this model, with several months off. Unfortunately there are some errors, the project is not too precise but it served to learn several things.Let's hope the next model will be more precise.I will make a 1/36 "LA Belle" model starting from the Hachette Kit by modifying materials and sculptures.Greetings
