Hi all, for my next major project I am planning to build the Kinkaku-ji. This will be when I finish the HMS Victory for which I regularly post updates on another subreddit.

In the true spirit of the Kinkaku-Ji, I aim to clad the top stories with real gold leaf. I will do some research first on how to do it (I already got some idea).

I eatimate to start this project Q4 2026!

Picture 1: Box art

Pictures 2-6: the contents. Very well labeled parts and high quality laser-cut wood

Pictures 7-8: close-up of laser cut wood. Very high quality and straight lines. No wobbly lines!

Picture 9: the wood is cut with sharp tools. You immediately notice the absence of splinters. This is a well made kit!

Pictures 10-14: some pages from the instructions. I cannot read Japanese, but the pictures speak for themselves. Google translate/AI can help figure out the rest.

All in all I think this is a really well made kit and can barely wait to start it!
