Chevron Nederland-------- JSC 301
Received from JSC yesterday.First gotta say incredible quick service from them.Ordered some of there new tool range at same time.Ok this is going to be a big model at 1;250 scale.Model was co designed between JSC models and Scaldis in Netherlands.
About the models itself.Can be built as waterline or full hull all parts are included.408 parts if full hull built and includes parts for display stand.Parts are printed over 32xA4 pages some on card and some on paper.If you choose full hull option you will need to laminate the paper underwater frames onto card. Instructions are very good and written in english,polish and dutch.12 pages of instructions and excellent diagrams,Laser cut parts are avalible from JSC as an extra,These provide for doors,ladders and davits,framework,railings,and even the crew. Full details and heaps of photos are are JSC site, I apologise for my photos but they are just a sample of the pages the ship photos are of chevron Madrid which is sister ship to this model.No photos of this ship availible to me.The underwater parts are built as a seperate item if required or be left out if not Enjoy

Nice one.Is this one of the tankers with provisions for some passengers? Rear part of it looks a lot like liners of similar era (to my untrained eye).
I tried googling it and not much info came out.It seems to be decommissioned sometime in 80s. |
