agree with the above suggestions. Just keep on building in an earnest manner. Chances are you will be surprised by what you can achieve.

[quote="shipclambake"]I've had a lot of problems with this kit and I took shortcuts due to being new to the hobby. I wonder do you think this kit can be salvaged into a decent looking kit, I�m undecided if I should continue building it.[/quote]

You should. Not only that it is a learning experience, as Martin very correctly said, but also that as far as I can see, the kit is in regular/good condition, not yet halfway in the construction, and not painted on top of it. I have salvaged kits in way worse condition, virtually from the scrapyard, and it has worked.

Best of luck and best regards,

Hey Willie, The kit has grown on me a lot recently the more I look at it the more I want to work on ot and finish it. Day by day I revisit it to add more and more that Ive left off of it and it gets better look all the time. Im going to keep working on it, Im waiting for some putty to show up to fill in the gaps and add more details on it thanks for the advice of keeping it.

Thanks for the encouragement, I've looked at a ton of reference pictures and fixed my mistakes on the kit which makes me feel better about continuing the build. I will definitely use this ship as a learning experience going forward in the future.
