For inspiration I attach photos of the Heller models of the ships of the Columbus fleet. I don't know who built the models. Photos were sent to me by a friend from Slovakia. Especially hilarious is the model laid on the sea surface. Just for the record - Santa Marie is a model produced by IMAI. It is almost the same as Heller's. The difference is that the SM from IMAI has round gun barrels.

This version of Chebec is by Dave. I liked this model so much that I added it to the photo gallery here. And I believe he won't be angry.

Surely everyone will enjoy this precisely executed model of the famous Mississippi steamship Robert E. Lee. The model is built with a wooden deck from our company's production. Mr. Miroslav, the modeler, also created a beautiful sticker for this model which is placed on the wheel box. You can buy this sticker together with the wooden deck offered by us.

Surely everyone will like the precision crafted model of the French frigate Le Superbe by modeler Zdenek. I apologize to him for the earlier mislabeling of the name. I believe he will gradually provide us with more photos from the construction. The model is finished at the end of May 2014.

I built this sailboat, as I mentioned before, during my military service at the border company Pisecna. I chose this model because I thought it would be similar to the Mayflover. After opening the box, however, I was disappointed, as the two models differ only in the stern mirror. The box does show a 1:83 scale on the bottom left, but I believe that if I compare the size of the Mayflower to the plans for this ship, it is 1:96 scale. Nevertheless, it's a nice model, and I think nicely built. Plus, it has lasted me without repairs until now. Maybe it was the fact that it hasn't moved anywhere, it's from my parents' secretary to a display case in my apartment, where it remains to this day. I have weighed the model during the build and have tested that if some additional rudder is added, adjusted properly, the model can be launched downwind and floats beautifully. I have the Mayflower elevated the same way.

The model of this Victory was built by my friend Tomas. Although he didn't have much experience with building such models before, he set about it with determination and precision. Today he himself regrets the little things he was afraid he couldn't do. For example, he made the blocks for the guns in 4 mm instead of 3 mm. It is a pity that he did not manage to compress the sails on the booms made by Amati more. And the more garish yellow colour is just due to inappropriate lighting conditions during the photo shoot.
