A shelf queen, maybe, but not a builder.
 
Where to start? First, I never give negative reviews, but this kit earned one. When it arrived, the box was almost impossible to open and I ended up pretty much destroying it in the process. Second, the whole kit was molded in clear plastic. It was brittle and hard to work with when it came to trimming off injector pins. The main hull comes in three lengthwise sections and you have to mount several parts to the inside, including the bridge windows. Putting the hull together is very fiddely and not much fun. It doesn't fit well some much putty was needed. Once all of that was done I tried test fitting one of the landing gear parts and its mounting (glued from the inside) popped off and fell into the hull. Project DOA. I tossed the whole thing into my spares box.
