Classic ships Model Kits (injected)<\/h2>\n

In all the recent ships posts (from 2021 onwards) you will find systematically a “modeller’s corner” after the books\/links section. I’m currently using scalemates, which huge database is quite handy to find old brands and unusual scales. It’s the archive.org or model kits. For each ship, i’ll try to pick up each time all the existing scales and brands, and pick up some famous ones. It happens rarely, but some ships never had been covered in anyway. In this section i will try to list everything reachable on the web in terms of classic injected plastic model kits. Not reviews yet, but it’s secheduled.<\/p>\n
