How to use

Carefully remove parts from sprues using a model knife or sprue cutters, clean any mold lines or flash, and test-fit components before applying adhesive. Assemble the hull halves and add deck and conning tower details according to the included instruction sheet. Prime surfaces where needed and apply paints in thin, even coats to reproduce historical colors. Small parts such as periscopes, railings and antennas are best attached after main sub-assemblies are complete. Allow adhesives and paints to fully cure before handling or mounting the model on a display base.

Recommendations

For best results, use a fine brush and model paints formulated for polystyrene, and employ plastic cement for structural joins. Consider using aftermarket photo-etched parts or thin wire for enhanced railings and rigging if higher detail is desired. Work in a well-ventilated area and follow safety instructions on adhesives and paints.
