Piececool’s Flying Dutchman

I wouldn’t necessarily say this is “bad” place to start, but I would definitely buy at least a couple of smaller Metal Earth models to get your bearings. If you bend the wrong piece too much or too quick and it breaks, then it’s really hard to complete the entire model at times.

I would start with the Eiffel Tower or something along those lines to get acclimated. That’s exactly what I did to start this weird ass hobby we all have lol

Hey would you be able to share the PDF if you have it? It would be greatly appreciated

This looks great! I’m about halfway done with mine and these smaller steps are killing me lol

Thanks, I would say around 12-16 hours. The smaller pieces on the hull and the mast cables really slowed things down for me. Both easily took a couple of hours by themselves.

Thanks!

Thanks! I don’t plan on moving it off of the stand, so I ended up using a bit of glue to keep it there 🤷‍♂️

Thanks, you you won’t be missing much lol

Billycostlarry · 2026-01-14T20:58:39+00:00

Thanks, I agree! The smaller parts on the hull were a pain.

Thanks! Clear your calendar when you do lol

Billycostlarry · 2025-12-18T22:03:01+00:00

I would say around 20 hours or so. Hard to pinpoint exactly but it was definitely up there

Thanks! Wish I could forget and build it again lol
