Revell 1/96 Cutty Sark

You are very fortunate to have a son that wishes to participate in this activity. I hate to hear about the part breaking - I hope that experience does not discourage your son. Pugwash is right, this model has been around for a long time. I remember building this myself when I was about 18 or 19 years old - ha - that was about 45 years ago give and take a year or so -
If I remember this tea ship does not have any cannons - so, you all do not have to worry about rigging them. You can also leave the sails off and just rig the mast / yards, etc.
The original came out in 1959 according to the scalemates website, 64yrs and sill going isn't bad for a model run.
 
Of course I commend you on the beautiful model and the excellent photograph- nothing beats daylight. But, I must give special mention to the organization of what I can see of your shop. Paint racks in background- commercial or you made them?
