Re: Next Model
I am building two kits from latine, i sticked with latina because then i know what i get. Mostly i dont use the written manual, but build using the supplied pictures and some good books about ship modeling and planking. The manuals are pretty useless, except for the layout of the tech sheets.
I will probaly move to another brand after the second ship, because latina is just like porn, u build one you've build them all, same woods same fittings. But i would recommend latina because they have nice kits and none off the parts are missing at least from my kits. Plenty of spare wood too. The kits are very forgiving in case of minor errors. The entry models can be build without any ship knowledge, but building more complex ships and the modeling books are mandatory.
