My most recent model is online, including a short video (http://shpws.me/Sutw). The model of the Skandi Saigon is in 1:200 scale and has plenty of details and good amount of RC functions. Skandi Saigon, Hull (1:200, RC)

The US Navy Ocean Fleet Tug „Powhatan Class“ is now available in 1:144 scale. The kit is RC ready to be operated through twin propellers, working rudders and a bow thruster. The parts are derived from the 1:200 scale model but are adapted to 1:144 scale with adapted wall sizes etc.

My larger size GillJet drive (azimuth thruster / pump jet / invisible Schottel drive) is available for larger RC boats, using a 20mm impeller drive that can rotate 360 degrees vertically to provide both propulsion and control: http://shpws.me/Rbxm GillJet / azimuth thruster, with 20mm impeller for
In addition to my 1:200 scale version as a radio controlled model, a 1:350 version as a static dispay model is available, too, of my Lewek Kea anchor handling tug.

The model comes in two parts, as it is derived from the RC model, and is printed in resin.

Finally, my new model is available: The "Lewek Kea", a 48m Anchor Handling Tug (AHT) in 1:200 scale.

The model consists of four sets of prints:
- hull
- superstructure
- details in nylon
- details in resin

All parts are available through Shapeways under the following link:

https://www.shapeways.com/shops/microboathobby?section=AHT+Lewek+Kea+%281%3A200+supply+tug%29&s=0

The model can be equipped for radio control (RC) via four channels: two 16mm props directly driven via N20 motors each in kort nozzles, twin rudders and a bow thruster. Additional function can be added. Parts needed to build a static display model are included, too. A display stand will be available shortly.

The four sets of prints add up to 182.26 EUR.
My model of the UAE auxiliary vessel A61 Rmah and her sister ship A62 Alfaq are now available as static display models in 1:350 and 1:400 scale.

The models come printed in one piece, in a detailed and smooth resin print. Painting is pretty straightforward, and they can be refined by adding a 1:400 scale railing if desired.
