I am 86 year's old and have built every 1/96 scale Revell model ship sold as far as I can tell. Among them were the USS Constitution (2), CSS Alabama (1), Cutty Sark (6), Thermopylae (2) and am currently working on the HMS Victory by Heller. The build instruction's for the Victory were vastly inferior to those of Revell, which were straight forward, well illustrated and uncomplicated. As I see it, Heller made the mistake of incorparating far to many details on a single page. In additiion, some of the print is so small one need's a magnifying glass to read them. Some are faded out completely. However, having said that,...with the use of "Fudge Factor #13" I guess I will be able to complete the project.
As a final note,...I recently managed to locate another Revell 1/96 scale of the Cutty Sark and it is one it's way.
