  1. Aaaand....they are upside-down (check my October comments and numbering of the Left and Right parts). Those longitudinal groves are for forming only and should not be visible. Not a big deal however, on Russian forum some people do it on purpose (they like the effect)
  2. There are more "traps" in this build: 1) markings on B19 are not for beveling, they are guides for gluing L11. And together they form temporary guides for drilling. 2) Waterways should be glued "upside down" (the glue goes on the upper - marked side) 3) Pay close attention to the right and left parts, sometimes they are intermixed on the plates (for example bulwark D2L sits together with R planks and vice-versa).
  3. Not now. The second planking should be glued to the bulkheads only (as far as I remember the instruction manual suggests this) and then you will see if it needs filler.
  4. In Shipyard models the first (of three) layer is just for the strengthening the hull. But fairing of the bulkheads shouldn't hurt...
  5. ModelExpo has it on Phantom page (separate chapters or all-in-one pdf), just scroll down to Description and click second tab (Instruction and Parts List).
  6. Dušek sells both turned brass cannons and a bundle kit+cannons. And it's on sale right now There is also "inside the box" video on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBT3_J9oKsA
  7. They have Canadian webpage... in French only : http://hachettecollections.ca/contact.php
  8. From what I can see here, Mexico is covered by their division Salvat, so you can contact them directly: https://mx.salvat.com/home/contact
  9. Hachette in Italy just anounced partwork "La Belle 1684": http://www.costruiscilabelle.it/ if I understand correctly, "tecnica dell'arsenale" means "admiralty model"
  10. I've just noticed this message on the webpage: To our foreign customers. The translations of manuals into English are currently at the beta state. They are correct, but the language is a little rough. Here is the list of translations that can be downloaded: MK0302 Schooner Polotsk Might come in handy
  11. As I understand, Mantua kit is in scale 1:84 and Mamoli was 1:150. And the second one is not in production at the moment, you should ask Daniel Dusek about it (his company bought the rights to Mamoli models).
