Hi, Where can I get the IvanHi there,I will call it evolution,the first one was the Stadt von Bremen,which came out few years ago,then they made the first attempt to upgrade the kit with the cnc carvings, to looks like a different ship-Utrecht Statenjacht.But eaven with the upgrade,this model wont be the same,cause it is shorter by 2,3 cm then the Utrecht replica in 1/50 scale.
In 2017 they completely recrafted the model using Gilbert McArdle book: Scratch Builing the Yacht Utrecht.The new kit will be released in 2018 and it will be an admirality style model.
Another inspiration came from the Pegasus yacht autor Ivan Trtanj.
I would say,the new kit is an mixture of 2 ships,just have a look and see yourself.

Hi donfarr,this is the site from where I did ordered the kit,it is Russian web so You have to use translator to navigate there:http://modelshipyard.ru/product/stadt-von-bremen-150/ also You can find the upgrade kit:http://modelshipyard.ru/product/dekor-rezba-dlja-stadt-von-bremen-150/ ,but it is the old version.If You want to buy this ship,I will recommend to wait,until the Pegasus yacht will come out.It will be little bit more expensive,but definitely better.Yes it was the 4H site, you are right terible to navigate but itlooks like an interesting site, where do you find the the details and price on the bremen that is the subject of this thread. THANKS FOR ANY HELP. Don

Thanks John,I am just worried It won't be that nice, It is only my 2 ship model but I am still learning from my mistakes,the 1 thing I really don't like is the hull planking! So time consuming and still not doing it right.G'day JZD, what a beautiful model, I will look forward to your build log, thanks for sharing it with us,
best regards John.
