Standing on the quay watching the boats come in you notice one that sends a tingle down your spine, and you know – this will be the: next project on your construction board, and that you won’t rest until you have finished your model and put it to sail on the water.

The yearning for far-away places is never stronger than in a harbour. And that is where you as a ship modeller more often than not find your ‘new love’ – the ship of your dreams. The joy of ship modelling has something to do their multi-purposeness, and the contradiction between charm and technology. They say a ship has a soul – and you know it’s true. Not just the real ones, but their replicas as well. You have learned to look carefully – you have an eye for detail, your dream would be to go aboard the original ship, to discover every detail and copy it on your model. Ship modelling – more than just building models…. it is an art, a handicraft and a passion all in one, and last not least it is the yearning for the wide open sea – in miniature..
