Whoo Boy !
Did I mess up with this one .Liners and such if out there are the old run of the mill TITANICS and QUEENS and the old REVELL- S.S. UNITED STATES as well as the old RENWAL ? kit etc .This caught my eye .Darned eye ! I have never had such a bunch of trouble building a ship model . I had to do things that were NOT called for in the instructions . I had to put braces in places that didn't have them . I had to put braces in the hull to get it straight and true . Now , the windows , do you have any idea how many there are ?
A LOT ! ! This was the easy part , believe it or not ! You need in your shop a SHARPIE . A extra fine type .This allows you to get the windows blacked out and it does look good .! You just have to make sure you overcoat the whole ship with ACRYLIC clear semi - gloss . Then put a dot of gloss crear on the darkened windows and boy , do they pop! I wish I knew how to do those darned pics .Just can't get the hang of it on my own ,even with the wonderful help many have offered .
So take my word for it .You can build a nice ship , just be ready to put a little extra work in it .This is not for beginners . This ship is definitely NOT for any beginner No MATTER how good you think you are ! Take it from a long time proffessional model builder . The model is not engineered that well , but , like many , it's the only game in town . Tanker-builder
