Well have ordered the new sets and look forward to the other goodies/hearts and blocks etc when there out.

Like a small boy with this ship, can't wait to get started. :wave_1:

Cheers Capt-P. :cool_2:

John:

Any chance of issuing this PE set for the Revell HMS Victory kit (approximately 1/220 scale)?

I know I would buy one...

Best,

Mike E.

Hi All

Glad to report that the Final Revisions of the 180th Victory Ratlines and Fittings etch sets have now gone for production.

In addition we are also having 3D printed the cross deck balustrades, hearts and blocks and a few other goodies which are not in the kit.

Here are some pictures of the etch fitted to an unpainted black kit (just so its easy to see what we have added)

This photo is of the Stern and Side windows as fitted and also when painted

Should be on sale in a couple of weeks

Please let us know when this photo etch is available for purchase, it looks fantastic! Any distributors in the U.S.? It would be great if someone did wood decks for this still nice old kit also. I just pulled out my old Airfix book on the Victory, & am ready to finally build it.

These sets look great! Must get these in due course.

I just received a load of fittings from Scalewarships and they are wonderful. They created the new 5 panel RN doors and tie downs at my request for my large Type 45.

Thanks guys!

Hi Gary
do you have the information regarding the early stern? prices will be worked out as soon as we get the sheets back (depends on how many we get on a sheet)
