It is all very delicate - the anchors are still attached to the supports but not to the hull! Based on this experience, I'm dreading cutting the lattice masts and radar from the supports - I might have to rethink my methods rather than using sprue cutters.
Unfortunately there the same fault the spoilt the print of the island is present on a small area of the hull - I'll have to see what they respond with.
First impressions are that it looks like a 1:350 scale model that has been shrunk down and realised in a too-brittle material. The detail is astonishing but some features are just too small to survive in 1:1250. I think they maybe don't have the experience in this scale to know what to leave out and what to make over-scale to get the right balance between appearance and practicality. From these early efforts though, I I was Neptun or Spider Navy I'd be worried
