Model boat kits in preparation
Miskin Models is in the early stages of developing a small range of wooden model boat kits. These will be divided into two categories:
CLASSIC RANGE
This will feature large scale (1/12 to 1/15) models of well known power boats of the 1950's and 1960's.
The kits will be of wood construction with all major parts CNC router cut.
Unlike the original kits of this period these kits will be complete with fittings in white metal or etched brass as appropriate.
Although the kits may be displayed as static models they are being designed as working models and will be suited to radio control.
Care is being taken in the design to simplify the problems of lining up the motor and propellor shaft and also to ensure that the construction of the kits is well within the capabilities of the average modeller.
PERIOD RANGE
These kits will be models of French warships of the Napoleonic era.
They will be of plank on frame construction with wooden parts CNC router cut.
These kits will also be complete with fittings.
