Quality
|
Quality can be one of the most confusing parts to determining which model ship is perfect for you, and even more so when trying to decipher the information provided from those who are selling the model.
Ask these questions:
- How many pictures does the seller provide of the model to assess the quality?
- How many angles of the model are shown?
- What is the quality of the picture?
- Are certain angles of the ship noticeably missing?
- When examining the pictures, is the model historically accurate?
- How much research is done before building the model?
- How is the model constructed?
- What components are used to build the model?
- How detailed is the model? (take particular note of the deck details)
- Does the seller have quality control or inspect all models prior to shipment?
- How is the model packaged, does the seller show pictures?
All of these questions can be exhausting, but we make determining quality simple and easy. At Handcrafted Model Ships, LLC., we are confident we have the highest quality model ships for the price in the world. We provide the following items to assess a model ship's quality:
Pictures: To show our quality we show many high quality images that show all angles of the model. If you would like more pictures of any given model, contact us and we will provide them.

Accuracy: Our models are authentic replicas. We take advantage of every available resource to ensure that our models are as accurate as possible. We use copies of the plans, pictures, period paintings and visit the actual ship when possible (HMS Victory in Portsmouth England, USS Constitution in Boston, etc).
Components: Our models are constructed of various rare exotic woods, including walnut, cherry, oak and teak to name a few. For the hull, we feature authentically aged copper plating (just like on the real ship - this was done to prevent the wooden hull from deteriorating). The decks carry machine turned brass cannons and the thick canvas sails hold their shape and remain wrinkle-free. In addition, our vessels rest on a polished marble base with ornately carved metal supports.
