syhobbs Posted February 4, 2023 #1 Posted February 4, 2023 I am building a Kolderstock Dutch Statenjacht and find that the supplied resin decorations are of such poor quality as to be virtually unusable. Has anyone else had this problem and found a solution? Any comments will be welcome especially from melissa t. who is building a similar model in Saratoga NY Keith Black and thibaultron 2 Quote

amateur Posted February 4, 2023 #4 Posted February 4, 2023 Have you tried contacting @*Hans*? He should be able to help you Jan thibaultron, Keith Black and mtaylor 3 Quote
*Hans* Posted February 4, 2023 #5 Posted February 4, 2023 (edited) Hello Syhobbs, Could you please send some photos to kolderstok at gmail.com? I will have a look at them and see if I can find a solution for you. Hans Kolderstok Edit: in the meantime I did have contact with Syhobbs. It turned out he had an old batch of ornaments, where the kit nowadays has newly sculpted and formed ones. A new set is in the make for him.

Melissa T. Posted February 10, 2023 #6 Posted February 10, 2023 Syhobbs - I just saw your post this morning and am glad Hans is helping you out. I have no idea whether I had the old or the new resin parts, though I did spend a great deal of time scraping and sanding them into shape so that they both looked good and fit where they were supposed to go properly.
