Very good for beginners! Lots of flash
Really enjoyed this project, it was the first model ship I've ever done. Found it rather simple, directions were very helpful. Part weren't casted the best be prepared to remove a lot of flash. (extra plastic along edges of the part). I suggest using a clamp to hold the two main halves of the ship together while the glue dries, I didn't have one myself and had to hold it until the glue dried. Was a long and boring process. Overall good build if you want to try a ship for the first time.
My own Black Pearl
This is a fun beginner level ship to build. I find it simple to and everything fits well where it should. I chose to make mine float upright in water and I have to say it can be quit stable platform for a kid to play with a toy in the pool or what have you. I would recommend this model to beginners like myself. If your an experienced modeler than you may find you can not improvise or alter this model very easily for instance the sails are pre set so you would have to cut them.
Challenging, but a bit simplistic
While this model was fun to build, everything but the rigging was too easy for an experienced builder. I would recommend this model for beginners who want a small challenge.
