Hey Dus,

Yep - They're painfully slow with releases, but they have a lot in the works. The CCB kit is excellent - I just had to change things up a bit. They are on the web. They've got a bunch of small stuff for sale as well.[/quote]

Hi Dave

Thanks for the info, think I will have a little surf over to their site.

Check out "brownwater.net" also - same guys displaying some of their craft. Click on either the Models button on the menu at the left on their page, or scroll down and you'll find two choices - one is a tutorial of the CCB kit. You'll see how well detailed it is.

Count me in! Got a PBR dio in production - well made two PBRs so far, but getting there... thinking of another using an LSSC on a fast pass causing a wake which is nearly capsizing a sampan... oh god too much... a smaller scale USS Collerton with amni pontoons and loads of tangos and monitors...

(note to self - calm down - one at a time)

See you in there...

It looks very good. I've been considering converting the LCM myself, but I haven't decided if it is too much work at the moment. I've got several projects and I need to finish a few before taking on another. I know there is a significant amount of work no matter what, but I had considered a complete scratchbuild, but would prefer to save some time. Was the Trumpeter kit useful or did it require a complete rework in your opinion?

Hi Kent,
Thanks, the LCM kit help me with the right dimension of the hull,instead of starting from scratch,expanding both side of the hull by 1 inch(more or less),same with the deck,so sad i lost my pics while im the process of doing it..and it's really save me some time.
