DURR,
I'm in mid-construction right now. I found the kit to be very attractive because of the fine lines of the ship it represents. The detail is weak and you'll need to do a lot of trimming and sanding for everything to fit right. Make sure you drill the positioning holes in the deck before you glue it to the hull and be very very careful with the bridge parts. The forward section of the bridge is very roughly cast and some parts are thinly cast and will be difficult to align and glue together. trim and fit it carefully before you glue. I had to drill the portholes myself, using the cover art for a guide, and the masts have a large amount of flash and will be difficult to clip off the sprue without damage.
It's more work than I expected, but I'm glad I bought it because it's a sleek and pretty little ship. Take your time, think ahead and plan well and it will be a beautiful item to display in your home.
