Cruise Ship Models Including the Titanic
- Every cruise ship model is built from the hull up by experienced master artisans, not from any sort of kit.
- Every one of our model boats is shipped fully assembled and ready to be displayed.
- Every model ship comes with a high quality, conditioned wood base complete with its own brass name plate.
- We rely on extensive research -- various pictures, original plans, drawings and digital imaging -- to build our model boats to scale.
- The highest quality rare woods (e.g. ebony, rosewood, blackwood, mahogany, jackwood and sycamore) are used to construct a model ship. The woods are subjected to specific seasoning procedures to ensure that models can withstand severe climate changes and will never warp or split.
- Details such as fittings, trimmings and propellers are sculpted brass or stainless steel. These metal pieces are then polished for perfect gold and metallic tones as seen in our Titanic model ship.
- Each model boat is micro-sanded a number of times to ensure maximal uptake for paint and varnish. Each time the model is micro-sanded, a layer of primer, paint and varnish is applied. This time-consuming re-application and layering process is what provides our models with their realistic sheen.
