Wanted-beta builder for USS Monitor kit
I need someone to beta build my 1/250 USS Monitor kit. Send me a pm if you're interested and I'll shoot you the files tomorrow. You have two versions to choose from (the kit will have options for three, but I have a builder for one.), as built or with the taller square funnels and vents.
The kit is fairly basic, but be prepared for some fiddly little curves on the guns and turret. I will also want it rigged, especially if you choose the later version, so be prepared with your rigging material of choice. I HAVE NO CLEAR INSTRUCTIONS YET, those are still in R&D, but the kit is straightforward and I have written instructions for most parts. Sorry, but I really need this built this week as release date is next weekend, that means you also have a deadline. Sorry about all the restrictions but that's what needs to happen. Also, if you want full-hull, I will send you those files MONDAY, NOT with the first batch on Sunday. Let me know. Cheers, Avery |

I would be interested in beta building this kit if you would like me to. I'll do either full hull or waterline version.

Re: Wanted-beta builder for USS Monitor kit
Should have the monitor done soon. One area that might need ajusting is the blue area on the main deck where the turret goes, seams a bit larger then the turret. The circle prob should be smaller. I also made my own tabs to connect the vents, stacks and turret. Stay tuned. Pics will follow, and I think I'll do a build report too. My best to everyone.

OK, here is a pic of the parts just sitting on the deck. Please let me know if I got the placement right. If so then I will glue them down and finish this build.

Re: Wanted-beta builder for USS Monitor kit
Ok. I'll try and rap this up soon. I'll post a pic when done, then I'll do a build report also. I'll also let you know what area's that need ajusting and any other sugestions I have. Would be nice to have a base for it, was looking for pic's of water to place it on. What do you think?
