This model kit of the Halifax is perfect for anyone who loves history or model building. It’s a great way to challenge your skills and creativity, and the finished product will look amazing on display in your home or office. Thank you for choosing the HALIFAX model kit, we know you’ll love it! This is an open box and never built. All pieces look to be complete and accounted for but it’s an open box and I can’t guarantee. I think it’s a great find and all here. As is and truly a gem find for your collection. Box is in great condition and many parts still sealed from original packaging.

Free Paints & Brushes Included! Model Shipways USS Essex 1799 Frigate 1:76 Scale. Planked inside and out. The USS Essex was a thirty-two-gun frigate built in Salem, Massachusetts in 1799. She was known around the world for her speed and graceful lines, achieving many dramatic firsts for the young American Navy. Essex was the first US warship to round the Cape of Good Hope into the Indian Ocean. Thirteen years later, she became the first American man-of-war to round the Horn into the Pacific. Sailing the Pacific during the War of 1812, she captured 18 British whaling and merchant ships, causing the British to lose almost a million dollars of lost revenue and devastating their whaling industry. The British sent two ships, the Phoebe and Cherub to hunt down the Essex. They cornered her off Valparaiso and engaged her in battle. Her 32 carronades were no match for the enemys long guns. She was captured and taken into the Royal Navy. Model Shipways kit is relatively easy to build, thanks to CAD-assisted laser-cut basswood parts, which come in a variety of thicknesses from 3/32 to 1/8. Fine basswood is also used for hull and deck planking. An unusual feature of this model is that the hull is planked inside and out. A host of fittings ensures that the model youll build is authentic to the last detail. Masterfully cast Britannia metal guns are miniature versions of the original armament. Brass nails, eyebolts, belaying pins and split rings are correctly scaled, and a photo-etched sheet of detail parts adds the finishing touches. Deadeyes, blocks and bullseyes are ready-to-use hardwood. Six diameters of rigging line and ample sail material are also included. Six sheets of plans, parts list with parts identifier and clearly written instruction manual guarantee a great modeling experience. Design, plans, instructions & prototype model by Bob Crane. The last three photographs are by Ian Poole of Canada who has done a superb job of modifying our Model Shipways kit to revert to the 1812 version of USF Essex. Our compliments to Ian. Display base & pedestals not included. Length 26-3/8″ / Height 24-5/8″ / Width 13-3/4. Scale 5/32 = 1 ft (1:76). Previous modeling experience helpful. MADE IN THE USA. Building Model Ships is Cool!
