1/600 Le Phenix (Heller)
I bought this kit at auction (ebay) last spring. I guess it was produced in the 60's. My old man told me, he had the same 40 years ago. It is a simple kit, meant to be sold to kids or starters, therefore it was very easy to build. The structure of the hull drove me to paint it by hand. The fittings took some time and the sea is made of GIPS, dried suddenly.
