Hello,

I have just ordered this amazing ship to build and also the recommended paints. I was wondering if the magazine tells you what and when to paint and if I need any other paints? Can anyone, in their experience of making these ships, make any suggestions of additional tools I might need early on or further down the line.

Thanks,

Glenn

Thanks to all the responses. I got my first pack today (doing the 12 month subscription) which I'm quite excited about. Have been busy buying all the tools and stuff I need but I'm moving soon so can't get going for a few months. Give's me a chance to prepare properly.

Have been watching the Deagostini : HMS Victory : 1/84 Scale Model : Step By Step Video Build videos on YouTube which have been great, although it only goes up to 16. Are the 'official' video's better?
