    I was thinking would you know the size of the life boats if so I might be able to get the wood ones from cornwallmodels they have different size life boats for models Ronald
  6. ronald305
    do you think the life boats could be copied and made into wood lifeboats I saw somewhere that someone made wood life boats I'm not a big fan of metal life boats but I do like Latina kits Ronald
  7. ronald305

  10. ronald305
    nice job on the victory mike may I ask where did you get the copper strips for the hull and what would be the size for that ship since I heard the copper strips does not come with the Latina kit Ronald
  11. ronald305
    Hi Mike I enjoy reading your victory build it's coming along pretty good I have two questions could you give me Artesania Latina e-mail address and did your Latina Victory come with the copper sheeting or did you have to purchase it separately and what size would be used for this size kit thank you Ronald
  12. ronald305
    thanks Micheal

    would anyone know why there aren't many Mantua #776 kit builds posted besides Philip's build Ronald
  14. ronald305
    would anyone know where or who on the build progress logs has build the Mantua/panart Victory kits #738 or 782 kit, I can not find any logs on these two kits at all I just wanted to see how they were bui thank you Ronald
  15. ronald305
    awesome Victory Philip may I ask you which Mantua kit this, is it the mantua/panart kit Ronald
  16. ronald305
    yes you are so right JP about the parts I will need to check the rest of the parts in the kit but the decorative parts are in perfect condition I will check the guns next and everything else Ronald
  17. ronald305
    Ok thanks I will have to believe all the parts are in the kit anyway I'm going to make a parts tray just like the on that got damaged I got the tray cover it survived the trip from Canada along with other tray of parts I forgot to mention the seller gave me some extra planking wood from another kit he had to go with the Royal Louis Ronald
  18. ronald305
    Dear Sir I'm really enjoying your build of the Royal Louis by Mamoli and would like to ask did the Royal Louis kit come with a parts check list to see if all the parts are accounted for, reason I'm asking is I was fortunate enough to buy one off of E-bay for a decent price, also but one of the parts trays were damage during shipping it's not the sellers fault because I saw both trays in good condition anyway I wanted to find out if the kit came with a parts list so I can see if all the parts are there so when I'm ready to build her she won't be missing any parts Ronald
  19. ronald305
    hello everyone who might be working on the airfix 1/180 scale Victory, would someone know the alternative paint color to the Humbrol 71
  20. ronald305
    That's what I. Thought thanks Besides the missing plans do you Think that the magizine makes it easier to Build then the instruction that come with the Latina kit Ronald
  21. ronald305
    Hi there I have a question it might have been answered already but anyway would anyone know if the DeAgostini Victory kit is the same kit as the Latina kit because both scales are the same 1/84 and the dimensions are the same but are the instructions the same thank you Ronald
  22. ronald305
    I. Meant thought so
  23. ronald305
    I thought do thanks
  24. ronald305
    since no one is willing to answer my question About this victory you'll calling the worst model I'm going to guess that it is a prebuilt model not a kit
  25. ronald305
    would anyone know the exact color of the deck floors top and bottom, is it a tan or a grayish color also I saw in a book I have that the author recommends an off white color for the deck that can't true ?? also How do I get the deck to look real any recommendation or ideas would be greatly appreciated thank you
