Specifications

  • Scale: 1/400
  • Material: High-quality plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Recommended for enhanced realism
This kit is aimed at intermediate modellers; it contains small parts and some precise assembly steps that benefit from prior experience with plastic models.
Applying a clear coat after painting can protect the finish and unify the sheen. Use a satin or matte varnish depending on the desired look.
Some modellers add fine rigging, aftermarket photo-etch for railings, or custom paint work to increase realism; these require additional skill and tools.
Keep the model in a dust-free cabinet or display case away from direct sunlight to preserve paint and prevent warping of plastic parts.
