  1. But there are not specified.... for example "red" what kind of red? AL in its webpage gives a table where the colors of Hermione are specified according to "Patone color model".It gives the numbers of that system which ofcourse do not correspond with any known model paints brand i.e. vallejo or revell or humbrol etc. Thats what am bothering you about. The question is how are we going to pick the right colors if there are no specification given in the kit. Hope am not driving you crazy with my persistance but I think is something we have to find out before buying the paints. All the best and thank you for your response. Chris

  7. Είχα κάνει misspelling.... αλλά δεν θα διορθώσω για να ψάξετε λίγο τα ελληνικά.... best wishes for christmas and a happy new year Chris
  8. Thx Jud.... very helpfull. Am an engineer myself so I got it.... its the torsion force we want to stop...so the feet if are one sided have to be in the direction of the load. ie a yard needs the feet of the windlass towards the the mast which is infront of the windlass, towards the bow of the ship. That means in the row from bow backwards : bow-mast-windlas feet-windlass. If I am correct thank you very much.... Chris thx again
  9. D.B. thanks... yes that was very helpfull. Though am going to use that windlass not for an anchor but for pulling up a sailyard.... do you think thats not proper?
