Don't blindly follow the instructions.
Mine was going well. I was proud, in fact, of how the model looked when I had added the superstructure to the two deck plates. The hull is extremely difficult to assemble. The directions tell you to assemble the two side pieces, the attach them to the deck plate. Not so fast. The tight curves at bow and stern are just short of impossible to assemble in that order. IF I ever buy another of their ship models, I'd make the complicated bow and stern hull connections first, then attach the sheerline deck connections and make that final hull plate amidships connection last as it is an easy flat panel connection. Oh and you're going to need a small dollop of superglue behind those big gun barrels to make them look right. You will not be able to get a ship-shape appearance with the twist and fold ear flap connections.

Worth it!
Had a fun time finishing the model. It took me about 2 days to finish the whole thing and was easy to build with the right tools!

Very high quality.
The quality of the laser-cut steel is impressive. I'm almost out of my league though, because the parts are so tiny. You'll need precision side cutters, model-building tweezers, and a BIG magnifying glass with leds. It will also help to have lots of tiny 2x2 ziplock baggies because there are parts within parts. easy to lose. I'm building mine on a silicone mat so a sneeze or cough won't blow parts away. Not for beginners or those without patience.

Flimsy but hella based
A lot of the connections are weak and finding the pieces can be cringe at times, however it looks amazing and is very relaxing. If you don't have patience or a steady hand and good eyes, this isn't for you. If you are a giga Chad, these are fun for a side hobby.

Awesome kit to kill tons of time
First experience with piececool and I was impressed with everything from packaging to instructions. These are quality kitswith immense levels of detail. I would NOT recommend this for beginners and a few different tweezers I would highly suggest but in the end, it's worth it. This is one of the best and most visually appealing kits I have done.

Very pleased with it
As a 1/700 scale, it gets a lot of amazing details (the superstructure is of IJN Haruna). The pieces are accurate to assemble, no mismatch.Only suggestion would be the designer to paint the parts to the navy grey/blue. this shiny blingbling kind of make it more like a toy than display

Great Model
It is difficult, and I do not recommend this to be your first metal model, or your second, unless you have previous modeling experience. If you do, you will love the intricate detail and losing the tiny pieces and making due with whats left. Its a great model and for the price will last you quite some time.

Not meant for areas with bad lighting and people with poor eyesight
The pieces were difficult, but not impossible to remove without bending. Worked better with tweezers instead of the pliers and cutter the directions suggested. Since the pieces were small, very easy to lose if dropped. Suggest that it be assembled over white paper with good lighting, maybe a desk lamp with a magnifier. Like all types of model kits, every piece is important, so to lose or break one makes it difficult to fully complete. Not suggested to do if you have bad eyesight. The Difficulty Rating should be higher. Through all I’ve mentioned, I’m sure this model would have came out great had I completed it, but after losing several pieces, I gave up.

De Tres Petites Pieces
Pas facile d'assemblé avec de petites pieces de métal. Il ne faut pas manqué son coup, pas de pieces de rechange. Il faut avoir une bonne loupe et de ne pas trop fatiqué pour le montage sinon ca ne donnera jamais de bon résultat. Il faudrait qu'il soi plus gros les models vendu pour etre manipulé.
