User questions & answers

Question:	I bought this elsewhere and it's missing pieces. Any idea how to get them.? The Revell website wasn't much help
Answer:	It is not specifically designed to float out of the box.Anything can float if you do it right. This model is a split hull design. That is, the hull is in two pieces, left and right halves. You would have ot make sure the hull is sealed, and you add the proper weight to ballast it properly to float at the water line.
Question:	What paints do I need for this model
Answer:	No. My husband had to paint this project himself.

Creativity

Puzzles are fun and stimulating games that can help us boost our creativity and stimulate our brains. When we are building a puzzle, our brain faces a challenge to overcome and makes us try to look for different ways to solve this problem, allowing us to see things from different perspectives. As a result, when solving puzzles, we are not only enjoying an amusing activity, but we enhance our creative thinking at the same time.

Eye-hand coordination

Building puzzles help kids, teens, and adults develop eye-hand coordination in a fun and entertaining way. It helps strengthen the hand and wrists muscle while reinforcing hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills.

Critical thinking

Just as puzzles can help us boost our creativity, they also help us stimulate our critical thinking, another skill that will be essential for other aspects of our lives. Playing with puzzles makes us have to try different solutions to a problem, and the more time we spend building puzzles, the more stimulation our brains get. Having to solve a problem using different combinations of pieces helps kids and adults learn how to find diverse solutions to a particular problem.

Patience

Puzzles take time, effort, concentration, and commitment, which results in the perfect combination of skills to help children and adults become more patient. Dealing with stress and frustration can be difficult at times, but solving puzzles gives us the chance to consider the bigger picture. Understanding that accomplishing a goal will not happen overnight can be a valuable lesson for kids. Building 3D puzzles can help us improve our patience while still giving us an enjoyable hobby for hours on end.
