This kit is recommended for intermediate to advanced builders.

You should determine in advance whether to use a gray paint scheme for the European theater or green camouflage for Pacific island hopping, because the construction method involves painting each sub-assembly before putting the whole boat together.

This is a solid hull kit with a large number of very small parts, and delicate detailing is required.

It is recommended for intermediate or advanced builders.
