Thank you mates, I'm glad to have you around 🙂

Well Kerry thank you very much for your kind words, but give me the time to finish it, so far it is a matserpiece of the master modeler and the caster and just a little bit of my work adding brass masts and bring it all together😉

Album info

Artillery's scale 1/350 resin kit of a 19th Century Royal Navy Sailing Cutter is an excellent replica of one of these fine little sailing ships. The one piece waterlined hull is niceld done, the overall casting is excellent without any warping or bubbles. The twelve 6pdr. guns are nice, but hard to remove from their casting blocks. I ruined the first while trying to cut and clean it. The mas and yardarms are made of resin as well, IMHO the modeler should replace them using brass rod. There are severall suppliers who deliver sets that fit quite nice. I use the sets from MASTER for example. There is a PE fret with the kit that contains smaller parts, like gratings, doors, shrouds, etc.
All in all a nice little kit which is easy to built.
