Aedes Ars 1007 Aedes Loarre Castle Model Kit, 37 x 26 x 7 cm, Multi-Color

The media could not be loaded.  This was a present for my wife Gill. She likes jigsaws and puzzles and was rather keen on the idea of tackling what would prove to be a very challenging project.I think you'll agree-she made a terrific job of this!A few month's worth of painstaking attention to detail - but the kit is very rewarding if you work hard at the detail.

This is the second Aedes-Ars kit I have purchased and being an older model of a more involved structure (lots of round walls), it was very much more challenging than the first. The instructions were even briefer than those of the first kit, but it was still manageable with a little thought. However for “first – timers” a smaller more basic Aedes-Ars kit may be preferable.It is also big! Completed it measured 66 x 54 x 30cms approx. and was weighty to, although much of the weight depends on how you choose to form the landscaping.All that said I still thoroughly enjoyed building this kit and am very pleased with the finished product. Being a building which very much still exists today, there is plenty of photographic material of the real structure and I was able to refer to that whilst building. The kit designers were obliged to miss out sections and very much compress others or it would have been a vast and complicated kit. However I was able to include some features the designers didn’t plan for i.e. a complete building section that had been omitted, a redesigned front door (!) and various other features.I very much enjoyed the build and the finished product, all in all a challenging but worthwhile kit.

Sales person was very quick to reply, and dispatch the packageHe also made sure I could buy outside UK!The model kit is good, a bit hard and one needs a good amount of time to build it. (But that was the idea), as a hobby and to calm down, excelent! The set itself, easy instructions without words, explanes good.

Well worth the money great hobby just takes time to build great hobby.
