Are the kits made by Doyushu any good? I saw a couple on ebay and was wondering about the quality. Do they go together well or are there major problems? I am mostly interested in the Shinano. Also if you have any 1/350 kits you'd like to part with, let me know.

I do not remember posiitvely, but I have heard that they compare to Lindberg. Not very good quality.

:-) Hello all, budhaman I just got the Shinano by Doyushu. BIG bucks! 350$ Canadian not including tax. The thing is HUGE, I love it! The kit needs a lot of work to make it acurate, but thats why I am in the hobbie.I saw a great build up of one in some site and I think I could get the link if you are interested. It also does not have nearly enough air craft, I would like to use one of them to make a resin mould but I do not have any experience with resin. Could any body help me with this project?
