ScottRC Posted April 17, 2015 Share #4 Posted April 17, 2015 I have a 1976 version made by Entex. There have been a number of revisions by different kit brands that I lost track of who released what and when from this tooling.

GrantGoodale Posted May 12, 2015 Share #5 Posted May 12, 2015 I am currently building this one (1/350 scale). For more modelling info than you would ever want to know, go to: http://titanic-model.com/ Click on the "Modeling" button towards the bottom right of the page. Then click on the various links. Be prepared to be deluged! I am sticking with out of the box plus the Gold Medal Models photoetch. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Pierre Posted May 23, 2015 Share #6 Posted May 23, 2015 I built the original Entex kit which I improved with one of the first Golden Medal Models etch kit. Not a bad model at all, and still going strong under different brand names. But one in my opinion very ugly feature of the kit is the hugely deep paneling detail of the hull, that in my opinion spoils it all. I wonder if this has been corrected at some point, or if a better advised modeler was clever enough to find a way to cure this. Still it is the best kit at a manageable scale, isn't it?
