Grant, thanks. This ship isn’t light weight to begin with, I can’t imagine imagine how heavy it would be with all the metal bling. I have made hundreds of the resin parts for this counting the ones that didn’t come out correctly. It definitely wasn’t a cost effective decision.
WojtasS, thanks for the suggestion but because of a muscle disease I have doing that would be too much of a struggle for me. I try to build the kit for therapy and barely get the basics done. You should see me when I do the rigging, quite comical. I did enjoy Poland when I was there several years ago especially found the salt mines fascinating.
Jack, so true. Plus it’s the only time I get to listen to music that takes me back to different time periods.
You're doing quite good, nothing to be ashamed of. Building ship model of that size and complication can be a challange for a avrage person, so that's even more respect for you. When I was a child I went on school trip to Wieliczka very unique experience, I still remember that like it was yesterday. If you ever plan going to Poland try visiting Castle Książ in Wałbrzych, it not olny has great historic artefacts, there's also Riese complex for sightseeing left "thanks" to Germans after WWII
Yes, the salt mine in Wieliczka is where I went. If I remember, to descend we had to walk down spiral stairs, I think about 850 steps. Visits to the salt mine and Auschwitz will stay with me till the day I die.
Eric, I thought so at first too. Very clever.
It’s the instruction manual and parts list. For what it’s worth it’s the only thing I’ve gone by so far.
This is only the second model I’ve ever done so I can’t speak for the other manufacturers instructions but I am glad for the people on this site that helped me and others out.
Thanks Kurt, thanks for your encouragement and support.
Appreciate it Jack.
WojtasS, would love to see the PDF. Thanks.
