varnished hull. with purchasing on ebay model wooden ship kits, even though they are cheap some of the models are derived from deceased estates and those less enthusiastic in constructing the kits. i have collected a few model kits so far on ebay sounds like theres a fire sale going on there in this regard, have about 5 or 6 kits waiting to be built so far and have a few logs on the forum i started and didnt complete im slowly working my way through the incomplete logs. have had a cleanup at where i live and this has helped in finding tools i misplaced. currently studying a graduate certificate in theology writing heaps of essays anyway at least. have had some pm about wooden model ship kits also about some good basic texts useful for gaining tips in building the kits also. have a small fleet of completed kits have been slowly giving these away as gifts to friends and relatives.
