I completed this model some time ago but only recently took the time to organize some of the construction photos. For those interested in the build, pictures are available on the following link:
The bow and stern decorations were supplied with the Amati kit as transfer decals. They are fanciful but traditional to Junks of this type. If you’re interested, some excellent photographs are reproduced in Peter Wieg’s book ‘Die Chinesischen Dschunken’.Unfortunately the model does not accurately represent the shoddy state of real junks even when new.
