grsjax Posted June 27, 2018 Share #1 Posted June 27, 2018 I was thinking of ordering one of Falkonet's small boat kits. The pictures look good and the price is very reasonable but I have not seen any build logs or discussion of the kit quality. Anyone have any experience building one?

MikeB4 Posted August 12, 2018 Share #2 Posted August 12, 2018 I went to a ship model show early this year. Someone entered the Imperial Russian Steam Launch Dagmar. It came out absolutely beautiful. In fact I selected it as best in show. thibaultron, Canute, mtaylor and 2 others 5 Quote Phantom, first time build:MikeB4 English Pinnace by MikeB4 - Model Shipways - 1:24 18th Century Longboat by MikeB4 - FINISHED - Model Shipwa...

I have been looking at the Master Korabel kits. Just wanted to try a simple small scale boat first and the Falkonet 6 oar boat looked like a good bet. Already ordered the Falkonet kit. Figured if Model-expo was selling them they must be legit. Live and learn. mtaylor, thibaultron, Engineman and 3 others 6 Quote My advice and comments are always worth what you paid for them.
