Wintergreen Posted February 28, 2022 #62 Posted February 28, 2022 Well, it's a sensitive thing to do, put it aside for the time being. Maybe you will find the inspiration to continue later on. No worries. Cheers Duanelaker and BobG 2 Happy modelling!

I know about getting frustrated with a build, David, and I think that stepping away from a build at times is not such a bad thing. I stepped away from my Pen Duick build for a long time because I got to frustrated with the poor instructions and didn't do any building for something like a year. I just followed others' builds here on the forum until I started to feel the urge to start building again. The Pen Duick is still going very slowly but I am determined to finish it. However, I found that I needed to build a ship that had good instructions and materials. So now I building the Flirt by Vanguard and I'm enjoying it very much while I continue to work slowly on the Pen Duick as well. I hope we'll see you back building something soon that you enjoy also.

gulfmedic1 Posted September 1, 2022 #66 Posted September 1, 2022 thank you Phantom solid hull first build
CMarino Posted April 15, 2023 #67 Posted April 15, 2023 Hi everyone ! Started building this beautiful model. A friend of mine went to US abt 20 years ago and brought to Rio but never put it together so he gave me as a gift a few days ago. Problem is that I could only find sheet 3 of 3. The other two are missing. Can anyone be kind to send me the drawings via email ? Alternatively where can I find in the web. Duanelaker's explanation and pics are fantastic... will help a lot. Much appreciated. I desperately need those drawings. Tnx a lot in advance. Cheers fm Rio, Brazil. Celso Marino
