deciding which ship to build

[Dave Garrett]

HELP !!! i have just purchased the revell 1:72 HMCS Snowberry kit and made a small start on it the problem i have is which version to build i only have two version to choose from Snowberry or Saucy unless anybody still has a set of build instructions for the old matchbox version that they are willing to copy and send me please then i will have a few more to choose from


the reason for this post is because everybody who buys the kit usually builds Snowberry or scratchbuilds there own personal favorite i just want to be different i am still going to try and attempt the rc conversion i just thought i would ask to see what other thought

I'm doing mine as Bluebell. All the parts are in the box, its just finding the bits and where to put them.


I have a list some place that I found on the net... I think that it will be quicker for you to do a Google search than for me to find the list.


There are also a huge number of other options for the kit.


It all boils down to how accurate a model you want...


I'll have a look for the list and see if anything turns up.

thanks richard i have been on that forum and i have got a few ideas from there but nothing has really caught my eye i need to invest in a couple of the corvette books but i don't think the missus will let me just yet as i have just spent £50 on extra detail kits
