Hi Erwin

Ironically, Accurate Miniatures are widely acclaimed for the quality of the instructions in their kits. They are almost unique in moving away from the "international" all-pictures style of instructions and returning to the "old" style with detailed accompanying text. Accurate Miniatures kits are quite complex and, while this may present an obstacle for modellers for whom English is not their first language, it really does pay to read the instructions carefully, as they are packed with useful tips and information. Italeri used the same illustrations, minus the text, in their re-boxing of the Avenger and I definitely prefer AM's originals.

There aren't any replacement instructions for the Avenger, but if you are having problems, try checking out the superb on-line build on the Accurate Miniatures website.

I hope this helps

Rowan
