Hi Paul
I absolutely love building this ship,I have seen and read a lot about HMS Solebay and this somehow adds enjoyment to the build, and Solebay was built the same year as I was born.
I'm sure you will also enjoy building this kit, If I had any advise it would be to check for any missing parts it does happen but Deans are great at replacing them, read the instructions thoroughly and use them as a guide rather than a bible, this kit lends its self well to your own interpretation,I found the full size plans more help, also when you cut the parts from the plasticard cut them as large as you can and then trim to fit, If I had cut some of the parts to the line they would have been too small.
Paul I would be most interested to hear what you think about your kit when you get it.
I'm painting my hull now and leaving each section a couple of days to harden so I don't have any mishaps with the masking tape, and working on the sub Assembly's in between, the midships staag is almost done and I have made the engine room air intakes operational I know there is probably no need but I thought why not.
