Description

Two versions of the hull are included - one with smooth sides (that can be painted to simulate wood planking), and a version with an iron-plated bow. Alternatively, you can cut the plates out of aluminum cans. That would look better and also be kinda ironic.

The rudder is designed to be fixed with a wire hinge, inserted into the hull slot before joining - as well as two alignment blocks to keep things square. 

Optional parts include the two styles of ship's boat, barrels, and basic davits that can be installed along the aft gunwales. 

Rigging and sails are obviously not printable, so regular model ship building techniques should be applied. Occre has their own model manual online which seems to be the best reference for the above.For everything else, Mathew Bett's exceptional “Building Terror” blog is a fantastic resource. 

There might be minor manifold issues on the hull parts, but I have had no issues with slicing or printing. 

[edit - I've added a folder for HMS EREBUS. The length and breadth are marginally increased, and the bow stem and gunnels have been modified. The galley/transom side pieces are now separate components.]
