A fun and educational build with children.

By: mdogantzis

What a wonderful looking ship. Lots of detail, and the spec that came with the model was very good. I like the fact that the specs gave you the option to leave the model the way it was or re-paint it your way. I personally painted only what needed to be painted and left the rest of the model with the original colors that it came with. Also. a good model to build with children, because of the historical aspect of the ship. The only con I found was the decals. They were very fragile to work with and also did not adhere to the model very well. I also had a tough time with the flag, placing them around the masts. Again, very poor adhesion quality.

Great detail for the scale

By: Full Steam Ahead

This is one of the better detailed Titanic models for the smaller scales. The great detail is a double edged sword though, the rivet/plating detail is amazing but maybe a little to much for this scale. One option is to build this kit without paint which is great for younger or new modelers, I chose to paint mine and it does tone down the hull detail a bit making it look more realistic. Overall this is a great kit and goes together nicely. I did purchase and recommend the addition Tom's Photo Etch sets or getting a Rainbow PE set which takes this ship to the next level. The PE is for the more experienced modeler. Again, this kit is a nice model and doesnt require painting if you wish to get it for the younger modeler. Great little kit and worth the money.

Paonting for accuracy

By: mdardano

I'm building the older release of this model but there doesn't seem to be a lot of difference. The fit of the parts is very good with little or no flash. It's nice that they molded the kit in 5 colors so you don't need to paint the hull. However I did give the deck a wash with Tamiya panel line paint to bring out the wood grain a little. I also painted the stacks which are way too orange. I used an old bottle of Polyscale PRR Depot Buff. It's a nearly perfect match for the photos I've seen of the Titanic. Overall a really nice kit. I'm building this for my cousin's daughter but I plan on buying the 1:400 scale version for myself. More parts but at least they're larger.
