Hi James.. I finally got round to subscribing to your channel! I've just watched a video from Nigel and he had a link to you :) He also said, and I agree, that the Shannon kit isn't really a /starter/ set, I think because the railings are fiddly and fragile. On that note there's no external frame to stop them getting bent or broken.

[@toboldlygosmodelworks1973]

thanks👍🏼

Must be huge boat in real life. Taken aback by the large size of the kit at 1/72. Looks to be decent quality for the price point too

[@toboldlygosmodelworks1973]

It's roughly 13 metres (42 feet) long in real life, sure is.

Y do modlers make it look hard to do when it's easy as pie simple but the way you go no if it's hard it's not

It might be easy - If you've got two hands that work - I haven't my friend.
