I phoned Hachettepartworks  yesterday to moan at them, as issue's 4-7 are well late and they told me there are having supply problems :angry:.so at moment I am   twiddling my thumbs,Dominic you still need that Figure head  m8.

Regards Steve

Hiya Steve,

 

Glad you posted, I sent them an email asking where my next dispatch was too. Been 6 weeks since my first one.

 

On the flip side, they have sent me an entire replacement for issue #2 complete with, this time, an intact figurehead. So thanks but I'm ok now, am sure there will be others who have damaged ones though.

Regards,
 
Dominic

Hi Dominic I am glad to hear you got the figurehead ok ,I will keep it just in case others need it. I keep looking at that German site thinking what should I do with the pearl base. I bought a skull in some Hippy shop in town :), but it needs painting I will post a picture of it soon.

Regards Steve

haha that's just an act trust me.

When I was younger my best friend was a goth and he had a great sense of humour, and a previous relationship had a daughter who was emo...who had something that could be described as a sense of humour but it was rather warped and sometimes inappropriate :huh:

Hi Steve.

Yes you can fill the Bow section if you want...It will make the planking better.

I use balsa blocks the same thickness as the gaps between the bulkheads.

Dry fit first and mark both sides to show the excess to be trimmed off.

Trim off the excess leaving a little spare to be sanded later.

Glue them in place. And sand the contours.

Hatchttepartworks is a pain. I still have only got parts 1 to 3. Not happy with them.

 

Regards Antony.
