History of the brand:

Vanguard Models was founded by well-known model ship designer Chris Watton, who has been responsible for Amati's recent model ship designs, particularly the Victory Models series. Now, as an independent manufacturer, he consistently realizes his ambition for the best possible fidelity to the original and the highest quality of material. He uncompromisingly introduced the production of parts from noble wood with laser engraving, and it is also important for him to produce perfect construction instructions with hundreds of color photos so that the models are a pleasure to build even for inexperienced modelers. The high quality of the material and the well-thought-out design are definitely worth it.

Construction difficulty

Only experienced modelers with many years of construction experience, who have a complete overview of the issue and have mastered all the technologies and working procedures for building static model ships, should start building ship models with the construction difficulty Expert. It is also necessary to have experience with the processing of various materials, gluing, coloring and orientation in drawings and the determination of own construction procedures. The instructions here are only an orientation aid for the construction process.

These models are very comprehensive and detailed with almost museum quality, which are built by experienced modelers for months and even years.

We recommend to buy

For construction, we recommend buying tools, glue and paints.

Modeling tools and mat

Building model ships requires the right tools. We recommend an excellent set of Modelcraft tools for ship modelers (set of 12 pieces), or Modelcraft tools for modelers (set of 18 pieces). We also recommend the purchase of nylon clamps and indispensable modeling pins. We recommend a modeling mat for editing, precise cutting, gluing parts and also as table protection.

Glue and paint

For gluing, we recommend universal dispersion glue and Robitronic instant glue medium 20ml. We recommend acrylic enamel paints for coloring. Apply colors with quality brushes (flat brushes for surfaces, round brushes for details).

Mini drill
Drill bits with diameters of 0.5 to 3 mm
