Medieval Mayhem

Great little kit with a few fragile parts that need great care during assembly. It looks terrific when painted like the website shows. That really brings it to life to create a delightful diorama in the “octopuses garden ‘neath the waves”.

Really enjoyed painting. Acrylics and water based varnish work well. Fiddly assembly but enjoyable. A little bit of separation of veneer on back plate but little bit of glue and paintbrush fixed that. Going to do London next.

I thought I would make something to wile away the time and entertain the grandchilren and this proved to be a hit. I painted all the bits before assembly and let my colour blind imagination run wild. It was really enjoyable to make and it is satisfying once it is all assembled to see it working. My next kit is on the way!

This is a very nice kit and the instructions are very good. It looks a bit boring if you don’t paint it, but it is essential to paint it before you start construction. Unfortunately I didn’t and it was very tricky trying to paint it after it was finished.

I bought this for my son in law and he was really pleased with it, kept him quiet for sometime!

I bought two of these to give as gifts. I know from past experience they are beautifully designed and engineered and appeal to all ages and interests. I shall be buying more.

This was a gift but, like all Timberkits products it was high quality and beautifully made.

A great idea that looked promising, Disappointed with the quality as one of the sheets of wood laminate was warped and had been scorched by the laser cutting and had peeled apart. Enjoyed putting it together but found because of the imperfections is difficult to operate.
