I admit, this isn't a topic generally discussed here. For my birthday I received a kit of S.M.S. Viktoria Luise a pre-WWI Imperial German Navy armored cruiser, complete with the brass photoetched super detail set. I've build a lot of plastic models, but never one out of card.

If anyone has any experience with building in this medium would you please offer any advice you can? Eldon and I have built balsa and paper WWI aircraft models, but this is a totally a different thing. Just reading the directions gives me a headache.

If you personally do not build models, but know someone who does, please give them my email white-water-kid at hotmail dot com. Naturally ironclad discretion about sexuality, unless they're gay or bi and then it doesn't matter.
