Model kit "The Viking ship Oseberg" V.3 Scale 1/25
Welcome to a new era of model building. The Viking ship "Oseberg" V.3 model kit, developed and perfected by "Ships of Pavel Nikitin", is not just an update—it's a completely redesigned masterpiece that sets a new standard for historical model kits.
An Authentic and Unparalleled Build
This kit represents a significant leap from its predecessor, V.2. The changes are so fundamental that this is essentially a brand-new ship. We've meticulously redesigned the frame to mirror a true Viking vessel, and the decks are now made of individual planks. The hull plating has been re-engineered with textures running along the planks for historical accuracy.
The ship's rigging is a tribute to historical authenticity, based on the scientific work of archaeologists. Almost all rigging blocks, crafted from wood based on reliable sources on Viking history, are included in the kit. The set also features 3D-printed anchors, a galley, and other small, intricate details. The fabric sail, colored in authentic Viking patterns, adds a final touch of realism.
Engineered for Joy
This model was developed with a deep understanding of the modeler's process. We believe the journey should be as rewarding as the destination. The kit includes auxiliary slipways and fixtures to simplify every stage of assembly. We are confident that this model will bring you an unparalleled joy in your hobby.
The display stand is designed in the style of 9th-century Scandinavian woodwork and carvings, making your completed model a true work of art.
