    You might want to specify which ruleset / scale you are building your ship for. If you are planning on building a 1:144 scaled model, then your best bet is to purchase a set of plans. I have bought atleast 5 sets of plans from Strike Models and have been very satisfied with the level of detail from there plans.

    Best is the scale and format of the cloesest battlers near where you live and most likely to battle with. If you are not planning on battling, then any scale is ok.
