سفينة القراصنة اليابانية 'واكو'

The laser-cut parts fit together with satisfying precision—I had the hull assembled in one sitting. The instruction diagrams are clear enough that even a first-time wooden kit builder like me won't get lost.

After a couple of evenings with the instructions, I was surprised how precisely the deck and hull slots aligned. The historical detail of the Wako pirate ship really comes through in the unpainted wooden pieces.

The laser-cut parts fit together with satisfying precision, and I love that the hull design is historically accurate for Japanese pirate raids. Assembly took me a few evenings, but the finished model has a really impressive presence on my shelf.
