    Hi folks. Earlier this year (2024), my son-in-law and his brother, bought a full sized Axopar 37 Cross Cabin boat. As soon as I saw it, I suddenly got the urge to scratch build a miniature version of the boat as a surprise gift for him. I built it to a scale of 1:64 which equated to a hull length of approximately 18 cms. I also detailed the interior of the boat (as can be witnessed by the removable superstructure). The hull was carved from wood, while the superstructure is made from styrene. Das modelling clay was used to simulate the upholstery in the main cabin, below deck as well as the seating are in the bow. I hope you like it!

    Hi Nils It looks like this is going to be another one of your amazing creations. Superbly crafted with precision, skill and talent. I look forward to following along. Cheers Patrick

    Thanks Phil!

    Hi folks. I’ve been working on my latest mega yacht model named Inspiration over the past 14 months and is, as yet, still incomplete. As is customary for all my models, all of her decks are fully removable to reveal a fully detailed interior, from the engine room, right through to the top deck. I’ve still got quite a bit of work to go, but I hope you like her so far. Thanks Patrick

    HI everyone I was just clearing out my cupboard and found that I have both volumes of the Naiad Frigate books in mint condition. I have never used them to build the model and as such, the pages and dust jackets are clean and in perfect condition. Both CDs and plans are intact and have never been used. Pls note that I am in Australia and the buyer will need to factor the shipping costs into the purchase price. Pls message me to discuss. Thanks Patrick
