Hello all
I am starting today a new project: 1:84 Amerigo Vespucci from Panart.
I have been looking at various kits of the Amerigo Vespucci (Mantua, Panart, Occre, Mamoli, Heller) and finally decided to go for the high-end model from Mantua/Panart.
It is indeed more expensive than the other models (I paid 711 euros) but considering the time that will be required to build this ship and the quality of this model, I am happy with my decision.
The first step is to go through all the elements of the box.
Considering that the ship can be sold either in 1 large box or in 8 different smaller boxes, the documentation is divided into 8 booklets, 1 per box. So far, those booklets look very comprehensive.
Below pictures of the various components included in the box.
