Having just finished a fun build with HMS Harpy, my next build will be another Vanguard offering, HMS Grecian although it is a dual citizen and could be USS Grecian.

 

So first the unwrapping:

I also bought the paint with the kit. It also uses copper tape

I think I have enough copper tiles (2 sheets) left over from Harpy and I think it should cover so will use them

Like all vanguard kits, things slot together quickly and then wedges glued to keep together. Final gluing of all the seams occurs later.

Stern area requires a bit of faring

Then slotted into place

Next finishing adding the various bow pieces and then sub-deck snaps into place followed finally with gluing the seams
