Amati's model is
based on the famous 9th century Viking ship discovered at
Oseberg, Norway in 1904. Plank-on-bulkhead construction
features laser cut wood keel, frames and deck. Individual
wood strips are provided for hull and deck planking.
Wooden mast and yard, sailcloth, cotton rigging line, resin
and hardwood fittings, plus authentic dragon figurehead allow you
to outfit your model just like the original vessel. Clear plans
and detailed instructions. (Display base
and pedestals not included.)
For new or limited experience wood modelers,
we strongly recommend the technique book
Ship Modeling Simplified.
Please note: The manufacturer of this wood kit is based in Italy.
Although complete plans and instructions are included, the limited English instructions
provided require critical thinking and some modification as needed.
This is not a build by numbers kit, and is not for everyone. Additional technique books, and or
access to the advice of an experienced wood modeler or wood model club is
recommended.
