That's okay about the Soleil.  I appreciate your help with the dom Fernando!  Thanks!

Bill, see my PM to you.  I'll assume you mean email address.   Would you or anyone else happen to have a copy of the Imai version of the 1/100 Soleil Royal?  I've got the Heller kit and the instructions are, well, vague to say the least Smile.  Thank you!

I got them open.  But the rigging seems very simplified, which is good. But..I just wonder out of curiosity what the Revell instructions might show different in that aspect?

Nothing more, only different painting scheme :-).

By simple being good I mean good for me...my rigging skills aren't the greatest.

Okay, I didn't know that.  How do you open the second link?

As usual, simply click on it.

Or - right mouse click on link and then "Save as".

You should have a Winrar archiver, to extract both PDF files in archive.

Free Winrar archiver You can find here:

Revell's Dom Fernando II e Gloria is repacked Occident's model with the same name, and it's the same model, as Zvezda has packed as Acheron...

Info on Zvezda's Acheron:

http://zvezda.org.ru/english/catalog/9034-french-frigate-acheron-1200/

Instructions of Zvezda's Acheron (as i have said, kit is the same):

Hello.   Anyone have a copy of the instructions for this kit they'd be willing to scan for me?  I'm considering buying it, but would like to see the instructions first to get an idea of how complex it is before making a purchase.  PM me if you do.  Thank you!!!
