Really nice detailed model, one that i really enjoyed doing. Some of the detail on the ships hull can be tricky to paint due to it`s size but i just about managed with a modelling lens. Did not bother attaching the sails as i think the model looks nicer without them, plastic sails always look cheap so i may add fabric ones at a later stage. My only gripe is the quality of the injection moulding, i know with plastic kits it`s unavoidable but this one was particularly poor. Virtually every part had to be trimmed and some of the pieces are so small it`s almost impossible to remove them without damaging or snapping them. Modeller beware, may sound obvious but a really sharp knife and strong magnifier are needed if you want to do it justice, not the easiest kit to do but worth the effort, just a shame about the moulding.

I've gotten half way through building this upon realising that there is a very important piece missing and cannot continue any further

Some bits require effort to prepare so be careful. Fiddly to put together but enjoyable to do.

Took just under two months to build on and off with work etc. But patience has paid off. I am very pleased with the end result. A superb model that does have some issues like flash and injector pins to remove with a knife and some parts are extremely small but it was all worth it. I have also not used the plastic sails as I think the model looks better without them although I may well later make some rolled cloth sails for it. Rigging can be complicated but stick with it and you won't be disappointed.

When it comes to quality this model is terrible, your have to trim everything as mouldings are so bad, instruction are bad, and not clear on paint selection. Ive made many models and this is the worst i have seen. But saying that i still had great fun putting it together so i suppose its good value. Give it a go but take your time, so im in the middle on thus one.
