Hi all-
So , I was wondering if anyone had any experiences or preferences over the following kits. I have the opportunity to possibly add one to my stash, but times being what they are, I'd better just choose one.
If anyone has input, I would appreciate it! I must choose wisely!
1) Revell 1/96 Constitution--Everyone knows this kit, it almost seems like a rite of passage to build it. Lots of parts, good quality....not really my preferred style of ship, but it's legendary.
2) Revell Cutty Sark--It's the big one. Not sure of the scale, but the box says it measured out to 36"....I think this kit is generally well-liked, and I think it's also kind of rare?? I'd really like to know how people regard this one.
3) Mini Craft 1/80 Chebec-- Another unknown kit to me...anyone know of the manufacturer's reputation for ship kits? Or how this kit stands up to the other two on this list, in terms of quality, rarity, etc....from the box art, it looks like more my style, seemingly from an *older* era of sailing...
Anyway, I thought I'd ask the people for their opinions....please let me know what you think, and what you might recommend...
Thanks!
David
