Great White hotsell Shark sculpture/scale model (requin, tiburon, witte hai) BASIC KIT ONLY

This is a raw cast of the Great White Shark model featured on my other listing

Length is 45cm along the curve of the body or 1:12 scale; height is 20cm to the top of the dorsal fin

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

This is a hollow polyurethane casting taken from the same molds as the finished and painted model. This is not a toy or a kit similar to styrene "hobby kits" sold commercially in shops and not suitable for assembly by children.

As per the photographs the model has no teeth as these are not possible to cast with confidence at this scale. I recommend using small pieces of metal or plastic sheet cut to the required size. The cast will require cleanup with a dremel and sandpaper, adding of teeth, attaching fins, filling with putty where the fins meet the body and filling of any minor holes/bubbles from the casting process.

To buy this kit you should be fully confident in the following:

- attaching separate parts of the shark (side fins) using metal pins and epoxy or similar (not supplied)
- inserting teeth into the mouth using tweezers and epoxy (teeth not supplied)
- sanding and finishing
- priming and painting using air or dry brush
- creating a suitable stand (no stand is supplied)
- slight modification of hotsell certain parts, eg front and back fins may need minor reshaping
- filling small holes sometimes present in the mold
- sanding seam lines until removed

In otherwords this is a "garage kit" for a proficient hobbiest. Maybe a day's work in total to get it finished, that's what it takes me :-)
