The Ship Model Forum

I also have found the instructions hard to read and incomplete. I sent an E-mail to Pontos two months ago outlining the things I found. According to a Pontos post on this forum, a revised instruction sheet would be available, so I have held off posting my list. Again, that was two months ago. So, here is my list with corrections. Updates are posted in color. If anyone can add to it, that would be great. I do like the set and hopefully an updated instruction sheet will be available soon.

The following PE parts are not shown on the instructions:
12 - rear superstructure railing?
31 - shown on updated post from Pontos on this thread
32 - shown on updated post from Pontos on this thread
33 - shown on updated post from Pontos on this thread
40 - unknown
46 - unknown
52 - search lights?
56 - unknown
68 - unknown
105 - unknown
112 - unknown
114 - unknown - replace kit ladder 43?
115 - unknown
116 - unknown
127 - unknown
128 - unknown
131 - unknown
132 - unknown
166 - unknown
169 - unknown
177 - antenna spreaders?
178 - unknown
184 - unknown
186 - unknown
187 - unknown

In addition to this, I have found the following problems.

The instructions show the placement for two PE part # 113s, but three are provided. Is the third 113 a spare?

PE part # 129 is shown as two different parts on the instructions.

There are no PE parts # 148 and 149 on the fret or the instructions.

PE parts 179, 180 and 185 call for multiple copies to be made on the instructions, but do not detail where they go.

The placement of PE parts # 14 and # 200 are transposed.

I have recently purchased the Trumpeter Dreadnought kit and would like to know if the Pontos upgrade for the Zevezda kit is
compatible with the Trump kit. Having used the Warspite upgrade from Pontos, I was hoping to once more use their excellent
product on another project.

Tim,
I reply at this thread...
Our Dreadnought detailup set (35002F1) is only for Zvezda kit.
But we will release similar detail up set for Trumpeter Dreadnought Detail Up set at early 2013.
Thank you
Kim

1/350 Dreadnought/Warspite Detail ups sets for Trumpeter kits will come out before summer.
Thank you
Kim

Kim,

Thanks a lot for quick response. But I'm worrying about my order, in which Dreadnought from Trumpeter & your set for Dreadnought will come. Would I be able to assemble this ship with such kit & set?

Regards,
Harry
