### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Looks like a nice 1:350 kit!
*by D***. on October 20, 2016*

A charming 1:350 kit. Not too big, not too small. Comes with a cute stand. If you buy some 200 and 1000 grit sanding sponge, you can easily make the two hull parts flush in no time, just don't do this sanding inside where you risk breathing in, or have the sanding dust contaminate your living room. Do it outside in fresh air. Apparently I got some weird kit, with the deck piece being 1.5mm too short. Looking at photos by a reviewer, he don't seem to have this issue. Weird. This was easily fixed by using a sharp blade to cut the deck piece in two ca 4.25cm from the rear side (stern), adding two strips of 1x1mm styrene for adding the additional 1.5mm of deck. Looking forward to finish building this kit! :) I like spending some time with the basic work of working the hull pieces together, so I don't rush that stage of the build. I like using Vallejo putty (white marble powder) together with a coarse! sanding stick, or it takes forever to grind that stuff away. Although this kit comes with a little bit of photo etch, for the radar and presumably depth charge dispensers, I bought Tom's photo etch for this kit separately. I plan to carefully cut off most of the tiny parts on the deck/hull pieces with a tiny photo etch saw (gluing the parts back on later), to try create a perfectly smooth desk surface, flush with the hull piece. That way I can sand the hull properly without worrying about damaging the details. :)
