Hello to all

 

Not that "i need" to buy another kit and stash away for the post nuclear era but ....

 

Anyone has any reviews or opinions or both on the HMS Prince by Mamoli.

 

She looks very nice, but the scale seems a bit small, so I was wondering if anyone had any inputs.

 

Thanks

She reminds me a lot of the old Aeropiccola kit (which is not a bad thing).  I have both... which probably says I need to get some help!  The scale is definitely different, but the smaller product is an advantage for me, since space is getting to a premium.  My kit came with totally unsatisfactory castings - somewhat crude and badly warped.  I should probably see about getting them replaced, though I might just combine my two kits and do some bashing instead.  I have it on the shelf, and can look at it again if you wish.

Current builds: Santa Maria (multi-kit bash), Constellation (AL)

Past builds: Beagle, Thermopylae (restoration), Blue Shadow, Wappen von Hamburg, Half Moon, America, Golden Hind

Ships in bottles (some): Marco Polo, viking ship, Prince

About the NRG

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
