Our Story

Welcome to Hobbyskipper, where a childhood passion for scale modeling has grown into a full-fledged mission.

For us, and perhaps for you too, it all started with a simple plastic kit and the indescribable joy of watching historical ships come to life. That same passion drives us today to find the best kits and tools for fellow enthusiasts.

We believe that modeling is more than just a hobby—it's a journey of patience, precision, and immersion in history.

About Hobbyskipper

We are a team of passionate modelers dedicated to bringing you the best selection of scale models. Our main products are kits designed and manufactured in Ukraine, with a focus on historical ships and wooden models. We offer a range of kits from simple wooden boats for beginners to highly detailed vessels that only an experienced modeler can assemble. We believe the quality of our products will inspire your next project.

We understand the joy of creating something with your own hands. That’s why we are committed to providing high-quality products, expert advice, and a friendly community for all modeling enthusiasts.

Thank you for joining us on this incredible adventure.
