Gleep93 Posted September 3, 2017 Share #1 Posted September 3, 2017 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! -Zach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardG Posted September 3, 2017 Share #2 Posted September 3, 2017 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. mtaylor 1 Quote Richard Current Build: Early 19th Century US Revenue Cutter (Artesania Latina "Dallas" - messed about) Completed Build: Yakatabune - Japanese - Woody Joe mini Member: Nautical Research Guild & Midwest Model Shipwrights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgan Posted September 3, 2017 Share #4 Posted September 3, 2017 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.).

EJ_L Posted September 5, 2017 Share #6 Posted September 5, 2017 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! mtaylor 1 Quote "A Smooth Sea NEVER made a Skilled Sailor" - John George Hermanson -E.J.
