GrandpaPhil Posted November 16, 2022 #1 Posted November 16, 2022 (edited) I found an ad for a 1/96 HMS Bellona card kit by Shipyard. Does Shipyard still make this kit? I have the AOTS for the Bellona and would like to build her some day in 1/72 scale. That would be a great resource if this kit were still available.

Pitr Obrębski Posted December 21, 2022 #4 Posted December 21, 2022 I've got one . I also saw that some Shipyard kit are available in pdf files. I downloaded such a file myself for HMS CLEOPTRA. thibaultron, mtaylor, BenD and 1 other 4 Quote

Meriadoc Brandybuck Posted January 31, 2023 #7 Posted January 31, 2023 I too bought the Anatomy of the Ship series book for the Bellona and intend to build her in 1/96 (after several test runs with smaller subjects). A kit might be helpful, but hard to track down! -Meriadoc GrandpaPhil, mtaylor, bruce d and 1 other 4 Quote
GrandpaPhil Posted January 31, 2023 Author #8 Posted January 31, 2023 I thought about either building from the AOTS or buying the Corel plans and doing some creative rescaling/reconciling of the two plans. mtaylor, Meriadoc Brandybuck and Canute 3 Quote Building: 1:200 Russian Battleship Oryol (Orel card kit) 1:64 HMS Revenge (Victory Models plans) 1:64 Cat Esther (17th Century Dutch Merchant Ships)
