Quick Overview

A model of this well-known ship was long overdue. The elegant hull certainly poses a challenge for a designer. A challenge that Carsten Horn mastered perfectly. This model is a real jewel which is not too difficult to build but still has a very nice and consistent level of details.

  • Details

    The model highlights:
  • hull design true to the original
  • hull plating without cutting lines
  • fine detailed life boats
  • benches on upper decks
  • detailed anchor winch
  • separate hand rails for railings
  • filigrane details for the mast

  • Wappen von Hamburg certainly is another highlight in the HMV range. The ship is well known to many as she serviced the route to Helgoland for decades. But not only because of that this ship is quite interesting. The very elegant hull design almost seems to be simple and perfect. Perfect it might be but far from simple and thus very difficult to transform into a model. And as it would be very unusual for an HMV model to be simplified in this regard our designer Carsten Horn managed to create a perfect replica of this complex hull which is at the same time very precise and relatively easy to build.

    In order to get a perfect hull with this model it is essential to stick to the instructions and to take sufficient time to form the hull sides until they fit easily to the framework. Once this part is done the fun really starts and building the various details of this beautiful ship is pure pleasure.
