Kolderstok Ship Models: Dufken, Batavia, de Zeven Provincien

[aussie]

Hi I'm new here so I hope the post is helpful.

I ordered the ship the duyfken from kolderstok in Holland I can say I'm super impressed with the service, quality of the model and the high level of detail so much so I ordered the batavia and the de zeven provinsien im working on this ship at the moment I'm super impressed, I ordered from Australia.

All I can say with my experience with kolderstok I highly recommend them for service and after service support and quality and in-depth detail. de dufken was my first ever model

Hi amateur my real name was taken and I moved to Australia from Holland 20 years ago so I thought Aussie will work 😊 , as we all know history is not based on the facts and they say in schools that cook discovered Australia that was nearly 200 years after the dutch. They built a life scale model of the duyfken in western Australia and I went on it 10 years later after I got the book from Amazon of the duyfken I got into it and found kolderstok

 

will try I never done things like this but I will give it a go 😊 at the moment I'm still working on the bottom half of the zeven provincien.

I going to make some photos and see if I can upload them.

And more than 40 millennia after the ancestors of the indigenous inhabitants arrived.

 

But Cook was the first to "discover", in the original meaning of the word (essentially "uncover" or "reveal"), the east coast of the continent to the then-dominant European cultures.
