Snoepert got a reaction from J11 in Vasa by Snoepert - FINISHED - De Agostini
Just had a major 7 week vacation through Europe and arrived home to find the first of 12 packs from England for the Vasa kit.
I saw the original Vasa in Sweden in 2012 and always wished I could get this ship for my collection and to my surprise England has the kit and allowed us guys down under to purchase direct.
I am exited to see the parts are of the same high standard as the Souvereign of the Seas I finshed early this year.

This is the most challenging part and needs a lot patience and care painting all the decorations.
It was good to purchase the correct paints as shown in the comments on the Vasa official build .

At the planking stage and by following the pdf instructions it makes things much easier and clear albeit it doesn’t alway work as well as Gandales build.

The hardest thing is waiting for the next months issue.
It is interesting building the ship as in 2012 we actually visited the real thing in SWEDEN AND WAS SOMIMPRESSIVE.
I am so pleased we were able to purchase this model direct from England.

Well I have been quite busy and find the cut outs very precise and of great quality.
following the DeAgostini pdf instructions are very informative and clear to follow.

The instructions do not ask to finish off the inside of the railings so I decided to plank them with a walnut finish.
came up quite well.
