racedees Posted August 13, 2021 Share #1 Posted August 13, 2021 The second project I will start next to the 1/225 Revell HMS Victory is the 24" Clipper Thermopylae. A simplified kit from the 60's. It is the same kit as the 24" Clipper Cutty Sark, with a few parts made for this model. It will not be a very accurate build, but I will make the best I can of it. A few pictures of the kit and it's content: The only things missing are the instructions and the paper sheet with the flags on it. Is there anyone who has this kit in his/her stash, who is able and willing to send these as a PDF or scans in A4 format to me? ccoyle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veszett Roka Posted August 13, 2021 Share #2 Posted August 13, 2021 I believe this will help you, if the kits are almost identical. Cutty Sark 1-220 Revell 1987.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cutty Sark 1-220 Revell 1987.pdf 2.02 MB · 3 downloads Thanks for your reply. I already have this one. There are some differences between them. I will use the 1/220 manual as a guideline for the colours. It looks like the 1/220 version has more parts and detailing compared to it's bigger sister.

racedees Posted August 16, 2021 Author Share #4 Posted August 16, 2021 Just a little progress in this build. Primered the deck and hull parts. And tried to find some pictures of the manual, with very little results. Cirdan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racedees Posted August 23, 2021 Author Share #5 Posted August 23, 2021 Made little progress last night. Painted the hull halves with copper. Also did a dryfit. It definitely is an old Revell kit. Loads of modifications and filling to make. Cirdan and Marcus.K. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racedees Posted August 24, 2021 Author Share #6 Posted August 24, 2021 Thanks to a member of the Dutch Modelbrouwers.nl forum, I now have the instructions and flags for this model. Hopefully I will be able to continue this build soon. I also added the instructions to Scalemates.com, so other builders can use them in the future.
