I recently received the first Pack (installment) of the Orca model by Agora.
This is my 3rd model with them, and if you aren't familiar with them, they are a subscription-based service, providing models, assembled over a 12-month or 24-month period. I chose the Highest-level option, (Collector's Edition) which includes additional items, such as the billboard and Hooper, Quint and Brody figures.
If you don't want to spend the money you may opt for just the model, paid over 12 or 24 months.

The packs come monthly, include parts and pieces, creating sub-assemblies and ultimately after 12 months, a completed model. Agora makes some incredible models and the Orca is no exception. The parts come pre-painted, looking brand new. You may choose to add weathering, which I will do lightly, adding salt, grime and stains as I build.
There are electronics included in the build, working lights, sound effects and voice loops. The Orca includes music, engine revving and quotes from the movie.
I start off assembling the control station and most of the Orca's flybridge (top). I am adding some Mars black acrylic inside the pieces that make up the bridge to prevent any possible light leaks and keep the appearance of wood. I added some light greys and dark browns to bring out some of the details, this is the first pass and will get a bit heavier as I go.
