Hi guys
I’m about to embark on most likely the last ship model build of my life. It will take me probably 5 years to complete. When she arrives the kit will have set me back about $2200 Canadian. Not my normal purchase. Now my questions: it is available in both cherry and pear. Which one would you go with? Secondly please advise what finish you would recommend for each wood. I want this to be outstanding when I am finished. I don’t want the model to look like it was covered in plastic if you know what I mean. A nice finish that will not look fake or shiny.
Thanks for your help
John
