Hi

 

I want to know how does Constructo quality compares to AL?

 

Now why the heck would I want to know this? Reason is, is that here in my country hobby shops only seem to have an local importer for AL products. So other companies like Euromodel, you are going to have to either buy and ship from their website, or nicely ask your hobby store to do it for you, which means it becomes a lot more expensive than normally buying it from a brick an mortar store.

 

However, I see one shop here sells Al and Constructo, with the Constructo being a bit cheaper than AL.

 

Thanks

What do you mean by "quality" ? Material, instructions, historical accuracy and research behind the model?

Nevertheless I would say both are equally low - may be it is better to speak of a particular kit from their range than just general talk, otherwise there is not much to recommend .

they are all poor quality

 

you must rebuild a lot of pieces because they are wrong or non - historical

the wood is low quality etc.....

but if u  just want to build a ship for plesure it's good and all brand are good

For quality, I would like to know about material and instructions.

Equally low together. Compared to kits from e.g Jotika, Victory Models, Model Shipways

As said, if you just want to build something, does not matter which one of AL/Cons you choose. You will get what you pay for. Whether it is enough for you is up to you.
