Detailed 1:225 scale plastic model kit of the historic H.M.S. Victory ship. Requires assembly and painting for an authentic, museum-quality display piece.

Review: Good moulding. - Good moulding a few flashes but easily removed,good instruction booklet with easy to follow diagrams.
Review: Good model, nicely detailed and not too hard to build. - Very good moulding giving a detailed model. Fairly easy to construct. Not really for children. It's a little too complex for most younger children. You will need to buy some plastic glue as well and paints to finish it off. Gluing the shields on the bulwarks is fiddly so you need to take time to get this right. Its best to paint or affix shield transfers before attaching them to the ship. Then just touch up the bits left unpainted so that you can glue them on. The ship is a complete ship, so if you want a waterline model you will need to carve away the part of the hull that would be below the water level. The scale works well with 28mm figures.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What are the dimensions of the built model?**
A: Its on the top shelf but about 18 inches

**Q: Where can I find the model which has paints included**
A: Typically, this would form part of Revell's 'Gift Set' or 'Model Set' line-up. There is a Model Set version of this kit (65408) that includes Contacta Professional glue, a paintbrush and a selection of the main colours required from our 'Aqua Color' acrylic paint range.

**Q: What paint and glue do you have to buy for the model.**
A: Paint recommendations are given in the kit's instruction manual: https://downloads.revell.de/Manuals-Modelkits/05408_%23BAU_HMS_VICTORY_2017.PDF
For glue, you need one that glues styrene plastics. We recommend our Contacta Professional (29604/39604/39608) - all basically the same product in different packaging/volumes.

**Q: Are the sails plastic?**
A: Yes but with a bit of creative painting look good. You can also search for "hop up" parts some craft shops in the US and europe do cloth sails and lots of other parts you can swap out but of course they cost.

Summary. Its a great kit.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ good detail
*by M***S on 11 February 2023*

I got this to build for a school project with my daughter, I last built a model like this over 45 years ago and then it was always Airfix models I built, from what my foggy head remembers the Airfix instructions were so much clearer and concise , the instructions on this models were pretty poor to say the least, Still with a bit of common sense it all came together and I must say we both had fun building it, her small hands came in very use full on some parts that my sausage fingers could not do . the kit has great detail ,the rigging is a bit of a pain it is very fiddly, and the water slide stickers for the shields do not stick fully because of the raised boss on the shields , we only saw this issue when trying to stick them in place and it was too late by then , if we had read other peoples reviews we would have seen that to fit them properly you need to cut a hole in the centre of every transfer so it fits around the shield boss and not on top of it ,. I would say the kit is worth the price and the WOW reaction she got from he teacher when she took it into school more than made up for the little niggles on the kit,...don't forget to buy your glue and paint people as this kit does not contain any.
