Hello,
I made some progress on Santisima Trinidad. Last week I finish second layer of planking on 3D model. In this kit all planks (both first and second layers) will be cut by laser for as easy as possible assembly. I hope I will be able to post some photos of prototype before the end of year.
Best regards
Daniel

Hello All,
As I promised here are some photos of the prepared kits Santisima Trinidad (after aplication of filler and sanding first planking) and Dutch Statenyacht. The Santisima Trinidad is my biggest project, length of only hull is almost 90cm. In these kits will be all planks of first planking cutted by laser for easier build.

Hi Guys,
The Royal Louis will be one of the last released kit but it is because I would like to redesign and modernized it quite a lot .

Hello Paul,
It is possible that I will prepare them also in another scales in the future, but I need to know how interesting product it is first on these 1/72 scale figures.

Nice idea these sailors, indeed. Although I cannot tell how popular they will be - 1/72 scale is not so common for ship models (like e.g. 1/64)
Also, if they were in "admiralty" 1/48 scale, I would probably take one set - not much choices there, I believe just some metal casted sailor set I saw somewhere online from other manufacturer...

Hi Mike,
Thanks. You are right. I will try to do something with the pictures.

Hello all,
 
In this thread I would like to inform you about new products, tutorials, specials and all other news from my firm.
First I would like to introduce me and my firm. Our first kit in the market was Greek Bireme which starts in 2007 year. Gradually we added other kits into the production range (2-3 new kits every year). All the kits are designed and tested by me-Daniel Dusek. I design all of my kits in 3D CAD (Turbocad) for as much as possible accuracy. Then we use laser cutting for production of the kits. You can see all of them on our webpage:
http://www.dusekshipkits.com/
 
Important year of the firm is this year when we moved into new bigger space and one week back we also launched the new website where the kits are presented. Video tutorials as service for customers will be presentedIn the new website. First video-tutorial is tutorial how to make the oars. Next video-tutorial will be series of building Viking Gokstad in 1/72 scale (first part will be ready during one or two weeks). It is possible to see the tutorials directly on our website:
http://www.dusekshipkits.com/tutorials
or on our YouTube channel:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCemXvlCnLIKycPSZOuYgEVw
 
We have also Facebook page where you can follow us:
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Dusek-Ship-Kits/1507139286209860
 
I would like to invite customers for sending of photos of their models build from our kits. I will be pleased to show them in our photo gallery:
http://www.dusekshipkits.com/work-of-our-customers
 
Finally I would like to write also something about the kits and classify them after different criterions:
1) Planking method:
All the ship kits are designed as plank on frame kits, some as single planking and some as double planking.
a ) Single planking models: San Martin, Golden Hind, Hanse Kogge, Greek Bireme, Greek Trireme, Nina, Pinta, Santa Maria and all of the Viking ships.
b ) Double planking models: La Belle Poule, La Real, Le Cerf, Maria HF31
 
2) Difficulty of the building:
a ) Beginner level kits: Greek Bireme, all Viking ships
b ) Advanced beginner kits: Hanse Kogge, Greek Trireme, Nina, Pinta
c ) Intermediate level kits: Le Cerf, Maria HF31, Santa Maria, Golden Hind
d ) Expert level kits: San Martin, La Real, La Belle Poule
 
3) Construction of the kits:
Some kits are designed as full laser cut kits (where almost all wooden parts are cut by laser including planks for hull planking) or more traditional kits where some parts are cut by laser and some are made from wooden strips (hull planking).
a ) Full laser cut kits: La Belle Poule, Maria HF31, Hanse Kogge, all Viking ships
b ) Traditional construction: La Real, Le Cerf, San Martin, Golden Hind, Greek Bireme, Greek Trireme, Nina, Pinta, Santa Maria
 
You can contact me with any questions, ideas or comments.
Best regards
Daniel Dusek

I wish Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all
