Good things come in small packages - Zenit is no exception.
We've already printed the second edition of our very popular model of the Zenit. Even though we barely changed the model, we added the complete interior of the bridge. Zenit can now be built even a little more detailed.
The model highlights:
- Elegant hull
- Bridge with complete interior
- Filigree crane
- Detailed mast including signal markers
- Capston with details
- Fine designed lifeboat
The colorful Zenit is the first model designed and published by Till Schade. The outstanding fitting accuracy and Till's clever solutions match exactly with the HMV philosophy. The number of details on this little survey vessel are manageable. However you shouldn't understimate this little boat.
Building the model ist not too difficult, but the hull is not as easy as it seems. Two cuts are necessary (one at the bow and one in the middle) to have an accurate reproductions of the original hull. Once the hull is done, the rest is fairly viable. The filigree crane, the lifeboat and the mast are of course pretty detailed, but if you use the extra available Lasercut Set, these parts are quite easy to build as well.
