This kit took a little bit because it was super detailed, but it's one of my favorites. It wasn't difficult to assemble however, the instructions weren't always clear at first. LOL, had to really study the pictures. Even though assembly wasn't difficult, it was time consuming because the details are in the small pieces that took patience. It took about 4 days to finish. I modified some things to my liking and added some pieces from other kits I had. There were left over pieces from the kit which was somewhat confusing, but I can always use it for future kits.
