Today arrived a future build in the Dockyard. So I thought apt to give an unboxing and small review of my own personal opinion of the parts. This was technically bought second hand but nothing has been used, so every piece of wood, brass, cast metal threaded etc are as New. While the...

My 12 year old son picked this out for me as a Father's Day gift. Perhaps something I may not have chosen myself but considering the source I love it! The salesperson at the local brick & mortar hobby shop thought it was a wood kit but it actually has wood and plastic components. Starting...

OK, to start with I received my kit in great shape, with shipping tape covering clear plastic wrap. The plastic wrap sealed the kit box and made for easy removal of shipping tape. When removed a nicely packed box was left. When I opened the kit box there were two large boxes and two smaller...

Recently JohnB163 had some questions about people's experience with ZHL models (which are quality productions), specifically the H.M.S. Victory. I happen to have the Caldercraft version of the ship in dry dock (storage closet). If I had not gotten it as a gift, I may have picked up ZHL's...
