If you want to build models in the one-line mode, use СA, but only it is correct, according to recommendations. I constructed already some models with application of СA and is very happy with this glue.

Hi, Sjors! Ask more questions, much better everything with started specifying and planning, than then to puzzle how to correct. I too was in such situations when already there was late something to correct . The Greek philosopher Socrates spoke "Isn't shame something not to know. It is a shame not to want to study" and it is the good principle to which I always follow, and not only in construction of models .

Hello, Sjors! I apologize for a little overdue answer, there were urgent affairs. Both in any matter, and in shipbuilding, there are fundamental basic principles and rules. That I wrote about the correct arrangement of shroud plate and shroud just belongs to such rules. These rules for the sailing ships (regardless of the name - Le Mirage or Fantom or somehow differently ) are described in many books about construction of the ships and models. How to arrive in such cases - to follow the established rules or to repeat errors of drawings from kits (and these mistakes, as it is known to all modellers, there is a lot of - producers of kits try to do models simpler and in bigger quantity) is a natural right and a choice the modeller, here to him nobody can specify. If you like to build Le Mirage according to drawings of a kit - it is your choice and your solution which nobody proposes you to change.

It, of course, badly, but on the other hand it forces to think and look for the solution of problems and riddles of kits. And it promotes professional development of modellers . Paradox !

Hi, Randy! I too long looked for the solution of this riddle, and then made stupidly according to the drawing. The bottom ring is used for anchor deduction.

Interesting miniature! -
Whose is model and why you decided, what shroud plate on this model are established correctly?
-
It means that shroud plate have to be shroud continuation, and at you go under different corners to shroud.
-
What to you prevents to truncate these parts and to establish them correctly? Or, for example, a few to displace shroud plate and shroud.
-
Hi, Sjors! Shroud plate are established incorrectly. They have to be shroud continuation, and at you go under different corners to shroud.
-
The decision to establish a bell the very correct.

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.
