The modeler will be able to find in this limited edition of the kit high quality parts such as solid wood and basswood plywood cut by precision laser, brass photo-etched sheet with details such as lanterns, railings or details of the cannons, sails made of cotton -ready to be placed-, cotton threads and, as a bonus so that the model is perfectly exposed, like a artwork that it is, a wooden exhibition base with nominative metal plate.
There is a DVD for computer -PC & MAC- with completely redesigned instructions: clarifying step-by-step photographs, as well as demonstrative videos with some of the steps more important. Printed instructions are not available. Remember that you can also download the instructions for free on the button of this product sheet called 'Instructions and Downloadable Contents'.
With this model of the Santa Ana, you can represent the appearance and artillery of the Santa Ana correctly in the battle of Trafalgar. The crowned rampant lion figurehead is a new design. The new artillery, corrected in scale and now much more detailed including photo-etched parts, has the howitzers that the ship carried in Trafalgar. The previous metal boats have been replaced by wooden construction, more realistic.
Modelers who wish to cover Santa Ana's hull with copper need 2 rolls of Adhesive Copper Tape (27595), sold separately.
