Looking for recommendations for ship modelling museums and hobby shops in London

[Kevin the Lubber]

It would seem we are dying breed pursuing a dying craft...

I’ve thought that, once or twice, but I then have to wait my turn in the model shop so maybe that too is not in as bad shape as it might seem. I suspect serious model making has always been pretty niche and only a few of the kids who, in my day, would do a plastic kit start to finish in a day or two, ever went on to pursue it as an art form. But keep an eye on the 3D world; it’s huge, and people are clearly still interested in ‘making’; some of them will undoubtedly move into mixed media, because you can only go so far with plastics.
