Hi guys

Finally finished my YAMATO build not too many problems with it. The only difficulty I had was with some of the instruction Pack pictures even at 100% the pictures were blurry trying to zoom in made it worse especially the final rigging pictures, printing the instructions off didn't help. had to guess a couple of times Andy purchase's build help a lot and also the Picture on the last page. The rigging is not 100% correct but it looks ok to me anyway. It took a long time but I thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Here are the pictures

Thanks guys for all the comments, I am really pleased in the way that it turned out. I am not sure that I would buy a full kit again though it was a nightmare trying to check and sort 90 packages into build order, still it's done time to crack on with my Soleil Royal build waiting for stage 10

Thanks again BigGrin BigGrin
