I'm building the AL Le Renard. My biggest complaint was this pressed wood or plastic bow piece that I thought was just awful. The wood isn't great, but not bad for what I paid for the kit (less than $30 abuot 15 years ago). I'm hoping I have enough to complete the job. The castings seem fair, though the carronades do appear really simple and underscale. My first kit was a Constructo Enterprise, and I have to say the AL instructions, with pictures, are way better than Constructo's so far, though Constructo's ship's plans were good and matched the pieces. Overall, though, I'd say I got my money's worth from the AL kit.

Very nice build. I've been working on the same kit for some time now and I'm impressed at how well your hull turned out, particularly given that molded bow thing that comes with the kit. I'd been thinking about leaving the sails off mine, but now I'm rethinking that decision after seeing your ship.
