Revell 05152 Container Ship Colombo Express 1:700 Scale Unbuilt/Unpainted Plastic Model Kit

This model is a wonderful kit and quite simple to put together. As you can see from my images I opted not to mess about doing all the different colours for the containers, so purists look away now!I got this as I wanted something to practice airbrushing on. The main part of the ship and containers went together with great ease, no need for any filler at all.The tower was a bit more tricky, but I a little time and sandpaper with some white plastic filler the job was done.There is SO much detail in this model but that was not the purpose of me building it, it was purely for airbrush practice.As models go for the money it is my view it offers amazing value. If you like painting detail then you will get weeks of pleasure out of making this. Also, and this is important, you can get an amazing fininsh out of the box, no need, like with many ships, for all the aftermarket expensive stuff.

Not built this yet i have checked for any missing parts, was bought as a xmas present and i am sure it will be of a good standard as usual for revell kits

nice model but the containers need painting not for the faint hearted

A very good kit and easy to paint and build.

Really nice kit, goes together well, painting the containers though does test your boredom threshold lol but once done looks great on any shelf

The model was delivered in the manufacturer Revell box which is not strong enough for the rigours of amazon shipping.

A nice model when finished. The only part that takes any time is the painting of the containers.Sadly these come in large blocks, so there is little to making them. All done in less than a day.

Going to enjoy my build of this delivered 2days after ordering what a great surprise
