HISTORY OF THE VIKING BOAT: THE FIRST SHIP TO SEE AMERICA

The Viking is a scale model with a lot of history. Who has not been astonished to admire these sculptural ships at museums or on movies and to think of the courage of its crew when navigating inhospitable and dangerous seas. The Vikings were the first Europeans to reach America several hundred years before Christopher Columbus!
For Artesania Latina, the Viking ship model also has its history because in 1995 it was the first model we launched in our acclaimed 19000 series of initiation. Today, more than 25 years later, we present its wooden model completely renovated. Designed for those who want to start on naval modeling and those who have previous experience and want to enjoy building a really nice and emblematic model.

 

CONTENTS OF DRAKKAR VIKING MODEL SHIP KIT

Designed entirely on 3D, the renenewed wooden model of the Viking at 1:75 scale includes all the parts of its hull cut by laser on board of first quality linden. This ensures a precise and pleasant assembly. The hull is double-lined: a first with birch ladles and a second lining with sapelly veneer. The second liner is designed for beginners modelers because it allows hiding the small errors of the first liner.
The Viking modeling kit also includes wood and metal decorations (like the two dragon heads) that give a touch of distinction to the model. We have also included an exhibition base and a nameplate for the new Viking. A tradition on this company, a beautiful pre-sewn color sail, ready to be fixed to the stick. We have made great efforts also with the instructions to assemble the ship model of the Viking.
The new Viking includes a DVD for computers or laptops -PC o Mac- with a complete step-by-step colour instructions widely commented and explained so that the assembly of this model ship kit is understandable by all at the same time as pleasant and enjoyable. It doesn't include printed instructions. You can also download the digital instructions for free on the button on this product sheet called 'Instructions and Downloadable Contents'.
Some modelers friends are hesitant about not including in the kit a step-by-step on paper. We understand its arguments but we want to insist on several fundamental aspects: first, the new Viking includes so many photos that makes it unfeasible to print commercially one step at a time.
In addition, thanks to the PDFs included on the DVD (you can print at home if you wish), you will be able to zoom in and out without losing quality or definition so that all the details are clearly visible. In addition, we include for the first time videos tutorials where we show different techniques and tricks of modeling that can not be taught on a printed version. The new Viking also launches the new image of boxes of Artesanía Latina that highlights even more the beauty of our kits.
Paint your own ship with the Set of Paints for Viking Model (277PACK19), for sale separately. You can also order the Viking Gift Pack (19001L), which includes the model, its paints and some tools.
Once it is assembled, this ship model measures 11.53'' (293mm) length, 14.17'' (360mm) height and 10.82'' (275mm) width.
Elegance, easy assembly and fun, step-by-step with hundreds of photos, videos tutorials, details that give a great realism to the model ship. These are some of the main arguments that make the Viking a Legend Boat on naval modeling.
