Beautiful and detailed model
This model (and the others in the series) is a great way to study and celebrate great architecture. I am just a casual fan of design but these are buildings that everyone has seen at one point or another. The kit itself is not hard but it does take patience. All you need is a sharp hobby knife and wood glue, but if you had some sandpaper that would be helpful. Recommended for a patient model builder with a little bit of experience.
Bottom LineYes, I would recommend to a friend
