That's superb – I always fancied getting the Zvezda Cog, but wasn't sure I'd make a good job of turning it into a waterline model… |

Thanks :-)
@2oth. It Comes as a full or waterline model. I´ve read on other build Reports that the bottom halfs are a pian to fit. I tried to dry fit the full hull on both the zvezda and Revell cogs just to see what they would look like and apart from it being not 100%, the join line Looks really obvious.
I´m looking at getting another, a resin one that Comes as a full hull and I´d have to consider removing the bottom half to crate a waterline version |

Argh! Thanks for the info – I didn't realise it came with both hull types. That's worth a Doh! And another. Doh! What are you going to do with the full hull parts you didn't need ? Could they be used as an overturned hull from a wreck turned into a dwelling in a fantasy setting (perhaps for Mars Zombie pirates to "live" in)? |

Using the hull as a dwelling? great minds think alike :-)
I might use the hulls as "house boats" not Fantasy though but as more real world ones* like This:
The hulls are quite large though but I´ll get around to making one at some Point *I seem to remember one being mentioned in Charles Dickens "David Copperfield" (?) or one of his books…?? or maybe even another author ?? |
