DESPACHT nº 9

[Llaut Mallorquin]

I have started this Polish kit, and I have rescaled it from 1/100 to 1/75.
The adjustment of the pieces is excellent, although the instructions (and the kit) are "for insiders"
I have seen this model on a Chinese page and it is to remove "the skull" for the fact that it is well done
I was so happy with mine, until I saw "the Chinese": oops:: oops:: oops:: oops:
I'll just put a picture of that one; the comparisons are hateful

Thanks herky; Tom Lapinsky;eatcrow 2; bluenoser for your comments an attention.

As I said the adjustment of the pieces is amazing, very good work of the designer.
Something I do not like are the colors of the kit; I think I'll do something about it.
I hope to finish it soon.
Greetings friends

I really like tugboats, maybe because when I was very young, I lived in a port and saw one of these everyday.
It was called "Herkules" first; after "Conde de Ruiseñada" and later "El Duende" (The Elf)
Years later, it was approached by a boat on a foggy day off the coast of Portugal and disappearing with 7 crew.

"El Duende" sailing through Santander Bay and moored in the port
