Hi everyone, I just joined and I'm looking for the plans for HMS Pandora. If anyone has books that they are in I would love to know. I'm working on a software called Blender to create a 3d model of the ship. Thanks and happy modeling!

Try the book by John Mckay in the Anatomy of the Ship series. You should be able to get a good second-hand copy for around $50. The ISBN-13 number is 9780851778945.

 

All the best,

Richard.

Zach,

 

John McKay sells large scale copies of the drawings for Pandora (and all his ships in the Anatomy of the Ship series), he offers them at various scales and if you contact him he will provide a drawing / pricing list and shipping cost. As Richard suggests I'd buy the book first this will help with deciding which drawings you want. His email address is in the public domain so no breach of confidence in telling you it is johnwmckay@telus.net. His response is first class, I ordered a set of 1:64 Victory plans last year and had them in a week (Canada to U.K.).

Zach, welcome to MSW! I hope that you will start up a build log in our 3D/CAD section so we can see your work. There have been some really incredible models done in 3D and I know I would love to see what you do with yours. Best of luck to you!
