The Ship Model Forum

Hey guy i need some help i have been looked through most of the link on this forum and can seem to find any one sell blueprints for the ark royal (around 1/100) , so can anyone point me in the right direction, If i can find the blueprints i would proably start in 6 months after prepares and practices abit with wood work this would be my first major wood Scarchbuild project.

You might check Taubmann's. Don't know for sure.

Wich Ark Royal?????

I'm guessing it's the Ark Royal from NF? The WWII carrier?

yes WW2 ark royal srry must have forgot to say that.

Try to mail this guy, http://WWW.hazegray.org

i think i found a plan i ebay he says it 1/32= 1 ft and good detail
http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie ... L:RTQ:CA:1 just not sure if it has all the info i need.

Ok thoughs plans weren't the right Type i need judging by info i am reading from books and the int, and i also got a email from the guys a Drydocks say there r no FTW paln for the Ark Royal, so i am going to put this on hold until i have more time to reserach and maybe is a few months a a year there will be some plans out. On that Note does any know it the is TFW plans for the Halifax or Iroquois CLass of the Canadian Navy for R/C control?

It won't hurt to ask our Department of Defense's public relations about it....other than that they may think you're going to sabotage our ships, heh.

I don't think they need my help for that

Hallo Lyall,

Every time I want some plans of a British ship , I write or fax to 'National Maritime Museum' Greenwich, Londen SE10 9NF tel.0044 20 8858 4422 Fax 0044 20 8312 6632. http://www.nmm.ac.uk
They will send you detailled info of the ship you are looking after , for example: K class Destroyer HMS Kelly 1938; they have sent me details of:Profile , Forecastle deck , Upper deck , Lower Deck , Hold , Sections , Docking plan , Lines , Shell expansion 9 plans in total. All this is in scale 1/48 with the prices mentioned. You can choose which plans you need and order them. These plans do not come cheap , but they are worth every penny.
I would say give it a try , and order info on HMS Ark Royal.

Regards,

Ludwig

ya i found that they r sending me the order forum for the plan i would it will take a couple week to arrive, i will proably buy the plan and then keep them for later use i think should try more smaller modals before i take on this.

Hi,
I am urgently in need of some plans and sections of the Ark Royal RO7, the latest one, it is for my diploma, that requires me to have built a model within the next week.
Does anyone know where I can get plans and sections quickly?

Thanks for your help

Matt
